Anyone have recommendations for hardware to run Moonlight on a 4K TV? I want to play games on my PC, but I don’t want to isolate myself in the office. I imagine a mini-PC would be more appropriate than something like a RPi, but does anyone have specific recs? I have never really bought a device like this. My laptop is not suited for the task so “use an old laptop” isn’t a good rec for me really. And yes this relevant to linux since the server and client will be running linux. ;)
does it specifically have to be moonlight? rather than for example steam streaming, or parsec?
No, I just was under the impression that Moonlight was the best solution
In my opinion it definitely is, parsec is missing features on Linux.
A modern RPi can run it pretty well with hardware decoding. Also something like an nvidia shield.
I don’t think I’m interested in an NVIDIA Shield since if I like the idea of running any Linux app in case I want to use it for another purpose in the future.
An RPi could be a choice. I forgot that the 5s have hardware decoding. Assuming the 4GB model is suitable, then $60 + cost of a case isn’t too bad. I assume the hardware decoding could keep up with 4k60?
I run an RPi4 at 4k30 and it does well.
