So I'm on a trip right now, and a friend wanted to play Elden Ring coop.
I only have a Lenovo laptop but it's always worked well with Parsec connected to my PC back home.
But when I tried playing Elden Ring I would disconnect from the game servers every 2-3 minutes and be booted back to the title screen, which was weird.
I then tried booting Elden Ring through Steam Remote Play, and I also got disconnected.

When I play on Elden Ring on my PC there's never been a problem.
So I wonder why it doesn't wanna work when I play through streaming.
Does anyone know how to fix this pls? 🙏

Attention! Sunshine detected these errors during startup. We STRONGLY RECOMMEND fixing them before streaming.

Fatal: You must run [sudo setcap cap_sys_admin+p $(readlink -f $(which sunshine))] for KMS display capture to work!

Fatal: Unable to find display or encoder during startup.

Fatal: Please check that a display is connected and powered on.

The command does not change a thing, heard it works on x11 but that is not available on Fedora 41.

Looking for a software where I can have the client installed on my host PC, but I access the PC itself through a web browser and have decent performance. I don't need anything amazing, but a consistent 30 fps would be fine. Parsec's web version doesn't hold up.

I am fairly tech savvy & can self host if there are options there as well.

I just to use this method to join video meetings, not want to play game.

I wonder if the porformance if OK.

So I’ve left GeForce Now because of the 100 hour limit coming very soon. And I tried boosteriod and was curious if there are any other cloud gaming options available. And what are the best ones to replace GeForce Now? Thanks:)

When cloud gaming was through the game pass app I could play on the cloud seamlessly. Since they have quit that and started running it through the cloud gaming app it's so damn glitchy and not smooth at all. I'm running it through work WIFI so the quality of wifi isn't the problem. Anyone else having this issue?

Hi, i have a sunshine and moonlight setup for my PC and Nvidia SHIELD. I have been playing some games with vigembus with my xbox controller. The only other controller i have is a Chinese brand switch controller. I was able to play with both controllers connected via Bluetooth at the same time. Problem is that we are both used to xbox button orientation (xy ab). Is there a way to be playing with both controllers treated as xbox layout buttons? Moonlight settings flip the buttons for all controllers but i would like to be able to do it for just the switch one, otherwise xbox controller becomes the (yx ba).

I’m wanting to move my gaming rig out of the office where it gets hot and loud and put it somewhere else that that won’t matter and stream games to my m1 MacBook Pro. Right now I’ve got both systems hard wired with 1gbe to a UDM-se and the latency isn’t bad at all, but it is noticeable.

The other thing is I run a 5120x1440 monitor. Playing at that resolution made the latency noticeably worse. Dropping the resolution to 1920x1080 fixes a lot of that.

My question is, will upgrading to a 10gbe connection on both systems be worth the roughly $500 cost in components to make it happen, and will 10gbe be fast enough to have near zero latency even if playing at say 4k resolution.

I’m willing to drop the cash to make it happen, but I don’t want to spend the money and then still have a bad experience. I’m streaming the games through steam with the default stream option.

According to an Nvidia document, NvFBC is deprecated on Windows since it might cause problems. However, I'm also reading that NvFBC is disabled on consumer cards and can be unlocked with patches (Sunshine also mentions this).

Is it worth using NvFBC on Windows?

Hi all,

I am trying to play Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League on Cloud Gaming but none of the other cloud gaming have them.

• GeForce Now
• Boosteroid
• Highscore (isn't out yet)

Since AirGPU is on credit system - how long will such a game take to download and secondly - will it cost credit hours during download and updates?

Hello together,

right now I do cloud gaming with VR games (HL ALYX) with a meta quest 3 via stim.io. it works great I was really stunned it be so good. Would it be possible to do this with an XR glasses like virtue pro xr.

For the record: I am sure it would be possible to play non VR games with this setup. What what about VR games?

i game with my friend on my pc remotely using Parsec(for display) and PC Remote(for gamepad). Lately pc remote sometimes wouldnt let my friend connect to my computer and now it just plain out wont let him connect at all. ive looked at other alternatives like maxjoypad and all but they require both me and my friend to be using the same wifi router to connect (my friend is far so we cant). i was wondering if there are any alternatives out there like pc remote which allow my friend to connect their phone as a gamepad to my laptop without us having to be near/connected to the same network. Thanks.

Is there a way to do this?

I’ve been having this annoying issue where using Steam’s game recording feature totally messes up my streaming experience with Sunshine and Moonlight.

When I turn off Steam Game Recording, both my PC host and iPad client can hit 120 FPS:

But as soon as I enable Steam Recording, the client frame rate almost gets cut in half and there's a massive increase in encoding latency:

Checking Task Manager at this point shows that the video encoding isn’t maxed out. I also tried disabling Steam recording and using Nvidia ShadowPlay instead, and despite having similar encoding usage, streaming frame rates stayed perfectly smooth:

This seems to have started after one of the recent updates to Steam's Game Recording feature. The earlier beta versions didn’t have this issue.

Yes I have VigeM bus drivers. NVDIA drivers are updated. I can use the screen touchpad but cannot use any buttons on the joycons. Any suggestions?

I'm trying to understand if it definitely works reliably before spending the money on the virtualhere licence

I already have a licence for a pi4 and using wired connection to the Pi, I get all the dualsense functionality.

Can I replace the wire via Pi which can be buggy, with just bluetooth connection to the shield and then have the special version of virtualhere installed on the shield? has anyone got that fully working? I see references to this 8bitdo adaptor as well

Thanks so much if anyone can confirm that this setup works well!

I want to play both Steam and non-Steam games, as well as control my PC desktop on my bedroom TV. After some basic research, here’s my current plan:

1. A TV with any operating system
2. A PC with Moonlight installed
3. An Nvidia Shield with Sunshine, connected to both the TV and PC via Wi-Fi
4. A controller, mouse, and gamepad connected to the Nvidia Shield via Bluetooth

Questions:

1. Is this setup sufficient?
2. If there is better alternatives?
3. I also have another TV close to PC. Can I just install Sunshine on it and connect two clients to one server? I don't want an hdmi cabel through whole room.
4. How does it work with ultrawide PC monitors, do I need to switch to 16x9?

I tried it on multiple devices using both wifi and cable connection. It is objectively an inferior product.

The fact that I paid money to try it and they won't refund me is criminal. Absolute robbery. I dedicated less than 1 hour to using this trash product and I'm out $11 USD.

It's not that much money, but being robbed is crazy regardless of the amount.

I tried Helldivers 2 and the lag along with the UI is unbearable.

There's no way an actual team is behind it. I refuse to believe it.

So i want to play local games with my friend on parsec but his program always lags or gets frozen and make it unplayable. We thought the problem May be the internet so we did the Necessary settings yet nothing changed, but when he tried Parsec with my other friend, it worked flawlessy for him. We thought it May be the game so we tried the same game but it didn't worked. We tried using Moonlight, but it was worse than Parsec. We thought the problem was me but i tried Parsec with my other friend (both host and client) and it worked flawlessy. So what should we do?

I’ve tried P1, P4, and P7 but don’t really notice a difference between any of them

I’m streaming 4k60 at 150 MBPS on a 4080s

Do you find that the encoder preset has any impact on your stream? If so what bitrate and resolution are you using?

I just moved to Apollo instead of Duo. So far so good. One thing I’ve noticed is my display seems to be generic display 60hz. Any way to make it 120hz?

Hey all, I'm getting such massive mixed signals on this so I needed to ask if anyone knew the best way to stream games from my Gaming PC upstairs to the TV setup downstairs? I'd like:

4K , 120hz , HDR , Atmos Audio .

Best way to do this without running a Fibre HDMI? I will have all wired to ethernet. I've heard getting a Nvidia Shield Pro may do it? Or Moonlight? Steams built in Steam Link I believe only does 1080? Thoughts? And big ups for any help!

Hey everyone,

I just uncovered my old windows 7 (GeForce 9600M GT) laptop. I would like to use it around the house to acces my main gaming pc in the attic so that I could play games on it anywhere in the house and also acces my 3d printing programs and stuff like word etc on my main pc

Anywone had an idea if this is possible? It is an old girl that laptop but it still works so it would be nice to give it a 2nd life.

Bonus points if a program would also allow me to use it as a 2nd screen for my main pc.

Main pc is connected with a cat6 cable and I have several of those in the house so I can connect the laptop with cat6 as wel.

Thanks everyone

I'm streaming Citra to my android tablet with sunshine, The problem is Citra can't bind controller input for hotkeys so i need to press F11 for Citra to go fullscreen. I can make Citra go fullscreen when loading a game but another problem is I can't exit fullscreen. Now there is no way to exit the game when loaded I need to go back to the pc to just exit the fiullscreen

Recently purchased a dummy plug so I can stream on my iPad Pro M4 11inch resolution which is 2420x1668 I’m trying to stream at 120hz and purchased a HDMI plug that’s compatible up to 4k@120hz. I’ve tried multiple times to set 2420x1668 on the Nvidia control panel but I’ve had no luck at 120hz.

The only time it works and doesn’t black out the screen is when I set the refresh rate to 60hz anything above, even 90hz is a no go on that resolution. I am able to set any preset resolution at 120hz no problem. After I do this and switch to the iPad resolution in windows the refresh rate says 120hz but when I go to nvidia control panel it’s showing 60hz which is really confusing.

Anyone have experience with this? I’m super new to this and would really appreciate any help!

Hi Everyone!

So I've decided that I'm finally going to build a Gaming PC, for the sole purpose of remote work/gaming. My criteria are as follows:

• All games installed LOCALLY. I have a very large NAS that I could store games on, but I don't want to have to transfer games back and forth. I've also messed around with LANCache, but again, I don't want files constantly transferring around.

• One of the big things I'm trying to solve is game availability. I want to install ALL my games and emulators, so at a moments notice I can pick up a controller, and play. So storage expansion is a must. (which I've pretty much got covered below)

• As many PCIe lanes as possible. I want all my storage to be NVMe. I've had great experiences with these cards in the past, so I plan on using them in this build. I know high lanes and gaming don't usually go hand in hand, but I've seen some Threadripper tests on YouTube that seem promising.

• Must be a physical machine, vs a VM.

My ultimate question comes down to CPU. I don't mind spending the money for a Threadripper, but I'm just making sure their aren't better options.

Let me know what you guys think!

Is there an alternative to GeForce now?

I don't mind paying a bit more if it's all games with a mounted storage fire example and an RTX 4070 or 80?

Even a script to use aws or so would be fine?
