This looks like a remarkable update, thank you and keep up the great work!

 

[JoshDevious]

TY for the update!

Was anything done to the nvidia encoding? It seems to be working a bit smoother for me now compared to the CPU one
Also, the app doesn't auto set the resolution on the desktop even with the opton ticked on.
And when i choose the Intel encoding option and hit start stream, it never shows up on my switch screen.

Keep up the good work man

Do you have intel integrated graphics?
Also the desktop res change needs to be worked on still.
And nvidia encoding was rebalanced a little but I still feel it is a bit more latency than cpu. So it's good to choose cpu if the game isn't too cpu intensive or the gpu is maxed by the game, and gpu if the game doesn't max the gpu and the cpu usage isn't too high.

Ok @ the intel encoding issue nvm I was reading it wrong and thought it was made for intel cpu's. not integrated graphics lol. I have an nvidia 1070, and have been doing my testing with borderlands 2 via steam. Perhaps that game just works better off the gpu. TY for the tips!

If you have an Intel CPU, you probably have integrated graphics built in that you can enable in the BIOS as a “secondary” GPU. I have 2 AMD Vegas, but I leave my integrated graphics enabled to use QuickSync for things like this.

is this require internet connection if the pc and switch are on the same router?

 

[hippy dave]

I don't suppose you're able to do a Mac version?

 

[Taorn]

No.

 

[masagrator]

No.

If you will connect Switch to Wi-fi without internet, it will disconnect and shows error.

It just doesn't use internet to stream data.

And to OP - couldn't you just make one thread without version number instead of making multiple topics about the same homebrew?

 

[Chrisssj2]

Hopefully the inputdelay is a bit better in this version?

 

[shadoom]

Is there a tool that does the opposite of this tool? Streaming the Switch Video/Audio to a PC? Like Kit-Kat does for the 3DS
Edit: Yes there is! "SysDVR"

 

[Deleted member 506316]

Probably a stupid question, but would there be a PC to PC version of this possible? For us AMD users as we don't have anything like Moonlight.

 

[Agusto101]

Still no audio fix? Aww.. Haha

 

[LightBeam]

"and can also function as a Wii U tablet standin for the Wii U emulator Cemu" DUDE WTF THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER

 

[Silent_Gunner]

So, has any of the quality problems been fixed from the last time I tried this, like, two weeks ago?

How well does that work?

 

[SexiestManAlive]
