Sunshine setup - FrogTheFrog/moondeck-buddy GitHub Wiki

General

All you have to do is to add a new app with the following:

  • "Application Name" field set as MoonDeckStream (default). You can also customize which application name to use in MoonDeck settings in case you would like to have specialized "do/undo" logic.
  • "Command" field set to the MoonDeckStream executable, using the installation folder created during MoonDeck Buddy's setup.
    • On Windows, the default should be <BuddyInstallDirectory>\bin\MoonDeckStream.exe (replace <BuddyInstallDirectory> with the file path of where it is installed).
    • On Linux, it depends on the earlier setup, but it can be as simple as /home/frog/Downloads/MoonDeckBuddy.AppImage --exec MoonDeckStream.
      • If Sunshine is installed as a flatpak you must launch the AppImage with flatpak-spawn. E.g. flatpak-spawn --host -- /home/frog/Downloads/MoonDeckBuddy.AppImage --exec MoonDeckStream.
  • Uncheck the "Continue streaming if the application exits quickly" checkbox. You do NOT need to uncheck the "Continue streaming until all app processes exit" checkbox.

Below is an example of the required settings using a non-standard installation path:

[Windows + Nvidia GPU] Toggle G-Sync

Sometimes there might be some strange behaviour caused by G-Sync:

  • FPS locked to 58 FPS instead of 60;
  • frame instability (not stuttering, but just does not feel "right").

If you notice such issues, you can toggle G-Sync using this command line tool.

[Windows + Nvidia GPU] Toggle Frame Rate Limiter

If you're using the Nvidia's built-in frame limiter, you can use this command line tool change it while streaming.
