Is this better than steams built in streaming system?
Honest question, never used anything else
Actually I don't own a Deck, though if it's similar to Steam Link on PC I'd say moonlight let's me tweak a little bit more stuff like bandwidth and allows for up to 120fps on all my client devices.
The setup process for moonlight/sunshine is pretty easy so I'd say give it a shot.
Thanks. I'll look into it, I've got plans to repurpose an old wiiu into a deck-like couch gaming machine.
Right now my wife is using the Deck pretty heavily, so I'm using steam to stream a game to my old Chromebook, it's working pretty well actually 🤷♂️
