#Moonlight Embedded

Moonlight is an open source implementation of NVIDIA's GameStream, as used by the NVIDIA Shield, but built for Linux/OSX/Windows.

Moonlight Embedded allows you to stream your full collection of Steam games from your powerful Windows desktop to your embedded system, like Raspberry Pi, CuBox-i and Hummingboard.

For a demo see this video.

##Features

  • Streams Steam and all of your games from your PC to your embedded system.
  • Use mDNS to scan for compatible GeForce Experience (GFE) machines on the network.
  • Qwerty Keyboard, Mouse and Gamepad support
  • Support Raspberry Pi and i.MX 6 devices

##Requirements

  • GFE compatible computer with GTX 600/700/900 series GPU (for the PC you're streaming from)
  • High-end wireless router (802.11n dual-band recommended) or wired network
  • Geforce Experience 2.1.1 or higher

##Quick Start

  • Ensure your machine and embedded system are on the same network
  • Turn on Shield Streaming in the GFE settings
  • Start Moonlight Embedded with pair
  • Accept the pairing confirmation on your PC
  • Start Moonlight Embedded with stream
  • Play games!

##Usage Usage: moonlight [options] host

Actions:

map Create mapping file for gamepad
pair Pair device with computer
stream Stream computer to device
list List available games and applications
quit Quit the application or game being streamed
help Show this help

Streaming options:

-720 Use 1280x720 resolution (default)
-1080 Use 1920x1080 resolution
-width <width> Horizontal resolution (default 1280)
-height <height> Vertical resolution (default 720)
-30fps Use 30fps
-60fps Use 60fps (default)
-bitrate <bitrate> Specify the bitrate in Kbps
-packetsize <size> Specify the maximum packetsize in bytes
-app <app> Name of app to stream
-nosops Don't allow GFE to modify game settings
-input <device> Use <device> as input. Can be used multiple times
-mapping <file> Use <file> as gamepad mapping configuration file (use before -input)
-audio <device> Use <device> as ALSA audio output device (default sysdefault)
-localaudio Play audio locally
