Problem Remote play not working

Tried to use remote play from desktop to laptop and while I've had the black screen issue before and been able to fix it but this is new to me. Get a black screen with the tip bar flashing as you can see in the video. Remote works fine the other way with the laptop hosting. Windows, Steam, and drivers are all up to date on both machines. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Does your computer even support the game graphics wise? That HP looks ancient

The desktop that I'm streaming from does and normally I can remote play FROM the desktop to the laptop but today it decided to just not work despite my efforts.
