Here are the common reported problems and their status.
### On Windows, I have no output in the console
When run in `cmd.exe`, the application does not print anything. Even `scrcpy
--help` have no output. We don't know why yet.
However, if you run the very same `scrcpy.exe` from

As a workaround, redirect outputs to files, so that you can read the files
afterwards:
```bash
scrcpy >stdout 2>stderr
type stdout
type stderr
```
_Note that all SDL logs are printed to stderr._
### On Windows, when I start the application, nothing happens
