"Your mouse is currently not captured by the game" message in Chrome Android

[bmszabo]

After days of working perfectly with TouchStadia, Stadia started to throw up "your mouse is currently not captured by the game. Please click anywhere on the screen to lock your mouse cursor" pop-up messages when playing Stadia games with Touchstadia on my mobile (S10+, unrooted). Cannot find a way to stop/ clear the messages, it pops up every time I push a button/ touch screen. Games and control work all right, but pop ups are very annoying.

To Reproduce
start stadia.google.com/home (Desktop version)
appy url code, taken from this site
start game (RDR2 or Destiny 2)
buttons of Touchstadia appear on the screen, but when touching the screen, pushing a button this popup pops up (as long as screen is touched). Restarting game/ device, clearing cache Chrome, reinstalling Chrome does not solve the issue. I do not see this pop-ups, when playing the same games on my chromebook (either with chrome extension or url code).

• Device: Samsung Galaxy S10+
• OS: Android 10
• Browser Chrome

Interesting... might be an attempt to stop Chrome mobile access. Will take a look into this, thanks!

Thanks! Can You let me know please, if you (or others) can reproduce this - or have I messed up my S10+ somehow (although have not changed any settings in the last couple of days)?
I don't have another handset to check it on another device.

PS: I did some research; other stadia users (with controller) complain over similar issue. A solution for them is (according to the posts) a chromium version for Stadia, from github (https://github.com/sigmaxipi/chromium-for-stadia). I have installed this chromium version and in combination with the snippet url from here it works just fine with TouchStadia; without the annoying pop-up messages about mouse not captured!

I do not know what the made changes in this "Chromium for Stadia" are; but maybe it can help You in the right direction to solve this issue with Chrome Android and TouchStadia.

Just wanted to note I have the same issue on my S9 with android 10 as well.

I'm getting this error message even on the custom chromium apk

Same issue here on One+. Sad but probable fixable.

[igauravbhatnagar]

Same here on Note 9 unrooted. Chrome stable.

It seems I'm no longer getting the "Your mouse is currently not captured by the game" but only when using the https://github.com/sigmaxipi/chromium-for-stadia apk and then only in incognito mode.

I'm getting it in chromium with incognito mode on it still pops up.

[danperks]

I'm still getting this in regular Chrome, any development on this?

[jumonkan]

Doesn't seem so. I gave up and just starting using xcloud

edit 2, ignore this then, mis-read the issue :) soz
