TLDR: Is there anyone who knows how well game streaming from a Linux computer to a Moonlight client works?
Oh, you didn't stop reading after the tldr? Ok, here's my life story.
Long time ago I was an avid Linux user and I still have a tender spot for the OS. Gaming under Linux was just a dream but as the end of the century came close (yes, I'm that old), ID released a Linux port of Quake II, and then came a flurry if titles that I still have boxes editions of; Civilization:CTP, Myth II, Soldier of Fortune etc.
Nowadays I use Windows for most things - also of course gaming too. My setup is a big (and pretty noisy) computer in my bedroom, and in the living room I have a fanless HTPC and run Moonlight to stream the games from my main computer (the streaming support built into Steam does not work quite as well, but it is a backup I guess).
Anyone knows if I could do this if I switched back to Linux? On the windows computer I enabled Nvidia Shield, but I get the impression that isnt supported under Linux. How well does Sunshine work?
I'll just reply to myself. According to the documentation, the combination of https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine and https://github.com/moonlight-stream seems to be a viable alternative that should work under Linux. (I have only tested them on Windows so far).
If anyone are looking for an alternative of streaming via Steam, this is something you might be interested in.
Cheers!
