Big Box problem when streaming over Steam

Hi

Just bought the premium version of Launchbox and I really like it. But I have a problem when streaming Big Box over Steams In-Home-Streaming:

As soon as I start a game in Big Box, the stream quits and I end up in Steam. The game is running on the host machine, it's just the stream that ends. Probably Steam thinks that the game is stopped when the window changes from Big Box to the emulator screen.

Has anyone an idea what the problem could be? I saw some of you streaming Big Box with Steam. Nobody else with that issue?

Thanks

I don't know if it will help you, but I had a lot of troubles until I disabled Steam Overlay in Big Picture AND I set inside of "Interface" settings "Start Big Picture mode Windowed". The windowed mode solved a lot of problems for me when running Bigbox and emulation.

Does the same thing happen to you streaming regular PC Steam games as well? If yes, maybe a network related issue?

So you managed to get bigbox to run in a windowed mode.. Can you please go into a bit more detail how you did it? And where you can find these interface settings?  I'm trying to do this also but no luck yet.

I didn't start Bigbox in windowed mode. I set Steam Big Picture to run windowed.  Settings icon->Display Resolution->"Start Big Picture mode Windowed"
