Insert from clipboard via App context menu not working. Only via Hotkey CTRL+V

[pstein]

I am using the newest scrcpy on Windows 10.
The remote Android is Android 14.

I oftentimes write some text on Windows, then copy it to clipboard and paste it in an app on Android (lets say Whatsapp).
If I use for inserting the App context menu then it doesn't work. Android inserts some stuff from the past.
The only way for a proper insert is via Hotkey

CTRL+V.

Why does scrcpy not recognize the content of the transfer clipboard?
The clipboard content is available as CTRL+V shows.

When you press Ctrl+v in scrcpy, there is a special mechanism which synchronizes the clipboard beforehand.

The computer clipboard is not synchronized automatically, for at least two reasons:

• technically, SDL does not expose a way to listen to clipboard changes (and scrcpy will not check every n milliseconds the content of the clipboard)
• from a security/privacy perspective, (for example if I copy a password from my password manager) I don't want to send my computer clipboard to the Android device (and to all installed apps) just because it turns out that scrcpy is running.
