      Exactly what I was thinking. I’m still running on the fumes of gfe+moonlight while thats still working. Hopefully Steam RP has taken cues from all the recent competition.

      But as with all RP options it’s probably still gonna be a ymmv situation.

      One plus of remote play is that I can set the controller bindings via Steam Input. On moonlight I wasn’t able to do the same since it just seemed to emulate an xbox controller.

    I wish they’d give SteamVR on Linux a long overdue upgrade.

    And by upgrade I mean “Make it look like it’s a project which is even alive”

      4k streaming. That’s it. The article just copies and pastes around “4k” as much as possible but that’s the only feature.

    I wonder how Valve pulled this off. Iirc, they had to reduce performance for remote play a couple years bag by switching to software acceleration when their license for hardware acceleration couldn’t be renewed

      Probably using VP9 or AV1 codec now and didn’t want to pay for HEVC.

      VP9 and AV1 are open codecs. and AV1 > H.265
