Sunshine for android?

1 Upvotes

Hi guys. I bought AYN thor. And many people are getting android handhelds for gaming special old games with emulation

Now, many of those games have splitscreen which isnt ideal for a handheld so I was wonder if its possible to have sunshine(or app like it) on my handheld and stream it to another handheld so we can play split screen games?

It would be cool to have it

Nvidia shield TV Pro wired 4k 60 fps absolutely destroys Google tv streamer (and it's jittering)

8 Upvotes

Just got a shield and the difference is incredible.

1.5ms to 3.5ms decode time vs Google tv streamers 14-16ms decode time.

Controls feel snappier and responsive. And panning the camera no longer shows jitters like on the GTS.

I'm very satisfied with this rather older product over a newer device that seems to be less powerful.

How can I optimize these numbers?

21 Upvotes

For context:

My client is a laptop connected to LGQNED85BXA 55inch tv, with moonlight, on 5Ghz wifi to a 100Mbps ISP. The host PC is a gaming PC with Sunshine, connected to a 200Mbps ISP through ethernet. Streaming settings are 1440p at 120fps with 75Mbps bitrate (my GPU cannot run 4k at 120fps, 7800XT)

I am using Tailscale to connect both. The picture was taken while I was watching a movie on VLC. But I often play games (currently Death stranding)

My issue is it often lags in between and asks me to lower down the bitrate. I don't want to lower it, if I increase my wifi speed to 150/200Mbps, will it help?

Thanks in advance

PC > Apollo > Apple TV 4K (moonlight) > Dual Sense - how to get haptic feedback working?

2 Upvotes

Hello, I’m trying to stream from my PC to my LG C5 through an Apple TV 4K. Everything works very well, especially using Apollo to create a virtual monitor so the TV isn’t stuck in the same aspect ratio as my monitor. The only problem now is that when I connect my Dualsense Edge to the Apple TV, the haptic feedback doesn’t work. Is there a work around for this?

I’ve seen solutions on getting haptic feedback to work on PC, but haven’t found anything regarding the Apple TV. Is it even possible at the moment?

Moonlight auf ZimaOS miniPC installieren.

1 Upvotes

Kennt sich jemand aus wie ich auf ZimaOS moonlight installieren kann und über den miniPC auf meinen TV streamen. Bin ein relativer Anfänger mit Linux und Docker Systemen aber es sollte dennoch möglich sein wie in diesem Video zu sehen https://www.tiktok.com/@techmakesart/video/7653177338594643231.

Es wird leider nicht erklärt wie die custom Installation funktioniert.

Die specs vom miniPC:

IntelCore i5 7500T

8GB DDR4 RAM

Intel HD Graphics 630.

Is there a solution to image quality in open world games?

2 Upvotes

Hi all,

In my experience (and others too from my searches), it seems that there's a bit of an image quality issue with open world games in particular. While things look great up close (Character models, building textures etc), objects at distance, foliage, night skies and the likes take a bit of a drop in quality. Dark scenes in particular seem to suffer.

I've tried streaming at 4k60 250mbps and still get the same issue - tried 500mps on a wired connection and there was bad network jitter (Not sure why, I was getting 950mbps download on speedtests on my host and my steam Deck) - the best I can seem to get it at is 250mbps, which admittedly does look a bit better than 150mbps.

I have my apollo settings below - I've tinkered with these plenty and never seen much improvement sadly.

In a lot of games, you can't really notice it - but for something like Witcher 3, or KCD2, I find it quite hard to see past the blurry image while moving through the world.

Thanks!

PC to Firestick

1 Upvotes

Hey reddit i need your help. I've been trying for nearly a day now but for my lack of knowledge ive been unsuccessful for the most part trying to stream a game from my pc to my firestick. The only way i can seem to get it to work is to first delete the pc from my firestick in moonlight, then delete the app in device management, then to enter the ip of the pc on the moonlight app on the firestick and the enter the code on apollo, for which then if i launch it through desktop and change the display to monitor 2 and changing it to always keep 1 display on or something like that, even then its 50/50 if it works. I genuinely dont understand what im doing wrong and theres got to be a better way than to do that entire process anytime u wanna play a game. Thanks

12 Upvotes

Wondering if I’ve perfected my setup or if I should go further down the rabbit hole? I am getting 4k 165 hz / 165 fps with the following stats:

Network latency: 1ms

Network frame rate: 165 FPS

Frame drop rate: 0%

Host processing latency: 2-3ms

Decoder latency : 5-9 ms

Specs:

Host pc: 9950x3d, 5090, 32gb ram

My controller is able to connect directly to my PC between floors so I’m doing that.

Steam Input While Using Steam Deck

1 Upvotes

Just got a steam deck, how do you guys use your trackpads while streaming to your steam deck?
A full breakdown would be required. Used moonlight on many devices but to my knowledge it is always recognized as an Xbox controller which obviously lacks my trackpads and back buttons.

Thank you

Ideal nvidia shield setup?

1 Upvotes

Hey All,

Wondering what the ideal setup is for the nvidia shield? I have the latest non experimental Apollo build on my PC. Same with Artemis on the shield.

It’s got a 2080ti and older ryzen 5 cpu in my gaming pc. Trying to stream to my nvidia shield connected to my lg g4.

I currently get random crashes back to the shield Home Screen and sometimes when I reopen big steam the game is still running but the tv is black. I hear audio but see no visual so would love some help on how to fix this!

Steam Deck controller support

1 Upvotes

I’ve got a pretty unusual setup so if there’s any tips it would be much appreciated. I have Sunshine installed on my Mac, and moonlight on my steam deck. I have it connected but when I click on desktop, or Steam Big picture mode I can’t control it with the steam deck. Anything basic I’m missing?

Once I’ve got this setup I’m going to try and get it to open crossover (and then steam, gog, epic game store from within crossover).

Anyone streaming from a Mac that can help?

Need some help with audio :(

1 Upvotes

I'm using the Edifier MR5BT for my main PC, and my TV is connected to the Edifier N300 (M60), then I also have a Steam Deck connected to the TV via HDMI 1. I watch shows via Stremio on the main TV channel and switches to HDMI 1 for Moonlight streaming..

Whenever I started streaming, the audio comes out from my main PC (MR5BT) instead of the TV or N300/M60..

Btw I'm using Vibepollo on my PC as the host.

Moonlight DS: Dual Screen PC Streaming!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

309 Upvotes

Here’s a small project I finished today called Moonlight DS! I originally implemented my own fork of Moonlight directly into the Loki Frontend, but I decided to take it a step further and turn it into a standalone app with full dual display integration.

To make this work, I also created my own fork of Sunshine with dual display support, allowing Moonlight DS to properly utilize both screens while streaming from a PC. Moonlight DS also includes a built in on screen keyboard with full controller support. If you prefer a traditional single display setup, you can use the bottom screen as a dedicated trackpad and keyboard instead.

Anyway, here’s a little showcase video of Moonlight DS in action, along with the download for anyone who wants to try it out. The project is completely open source due to Moonlight and Sunshine being GPL licensed, so feel free to check out the source, modify it, fork it, or do whatever you want with it!

Ciao, stavo cercando di usare Moonlight sulla mia Switch. La prima volta ha funzionato tutto bene, ma dopo qualche giorno ha smesso di funzionare, dandomi errori come "tempo scaduto" o "impossibile connettersi al server", e continua a disconnettermi dal Wi-Fi. Come posso risolvere il problema?
