Gamestreaming Development Preview

[AreaScout]

Hi all

I just want to give you a small preview for Gamestreaming on the Odroid-Go Adv., it uses the VPU to decode the video stream and the 2D raster graphic acceleration unit to rotate the screen to landscape mode, it runs very smooth and sound and input has very little lag however I will try to speed this up again with DRM Prime video decoding.

This looks great! Can you do it the other way around?

[AreaScout]

From macOS to the Go Adv. ?

Very nice, I didn't think moonlight would work so well on such a low resolution display.

I think mad_ady is looking for the same thing as myself, I would love to stream from the Go Advance to my Android TV or perhaps the N2. I know these devices can play games on their own but since the Go Advance already has the emulators, games, and controls it would be cool to use it in this way.

It works very well, I was playing half an hour Asphalt9 on it --> extra cool

Beside that, my WIFI has lags, does anyone know what I can do about it ? My WIFI USB stick is half a meter from the WIFI router so the distance isn't the problem

Disable power save:

Code: Select all

sudo vi /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/default-wifi-powersave-on.conf

Change the 3 which is enabled to 2 which is disabled and reboot.

Very nice find But in my case that didn't help

Interesting, it made a huge difference on my WiFi.

[AreaScout]

I think I will order one of those USB2Ethernet adapters if I don't get it working, did you use wpa_supplicant to connect to your WIFI ?

I just followed the wiki and used nmcli

Code: Select all

sudo nmcli dev wifi con 'your SSID' password 'your password'

My router is using wpa2/AES

[AreaScout]

Yes !!! That did work, so wpa_supplicant must have been the issue haha nice, I am happy that it works, thank you so much

You're welcome.

[odroid]

WPA supplicant had too many issues and we switched to the nmcli over a year ago.

@odroid

I was following the tutorial on the wiki just one menu entry above from here https://wiki.odroid.com/troubleshooting ... wifi_setup that should be deleted then

[AreaScout]

Some other developers still need it probably.
So I've emphasis the warning message on that wiki page.

Moonlight for GoAdv. consists of two working video backend (platforms), both of them are HW accelerated, they are sdl and rk

For pairing with your game pc you have to issue ./moonlight pair xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx after that you can ask/list for shared games with ./moonlight list xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx the streaming itself is startet with

zero copy (drm prime) video backend entirely without GPU (VPU->rotate->VOP):

./moonlight stream xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -app GameName -fps 30 -720 -platform rk

or VPU, 2D Accelerator, GPU renderer/scaler sdl2 backend

./moonlight stream xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -app GameName -fps 30 -720 -platform sdl

Streaming is very fast and with very very little lag with both of the backends, however the rockchip drm prime backend is the fastest but it could be that the difference is not noticeable and is within microseconds.

I have only testet 720p30 but 720p60 or 1080p30, 1080p60 should be possible too if your WLAN is fast enough, high-end wireless router (802.11n dual-band recommended) or wired network is recommended, which I do not have

Moonlight 2.4.10 GoAdv./Rockchip

Here is the download of the final version of Moonlight Gamestreaming client for the GoAdv. ready for game image builders, the debian package does NOT resolve package dependencies you have to install it for your own, here they are in detail:

So I've emphasis the warning message on that wiki page.
warn.png

that is interesting because i think nmcli uses wpa_supplicant

[meveric]

I use /etc/network/interfaces directly (I did not configure wpa_supplicant in ANY way).. but if you check with ifup -v wlan0 you see that it uses wpa_supplicant in the background as well.
So I also assume wpa_supplicant works fine, but using it directly to start wifi is not the best idea, rather rely on other methods like nmcli and /etc/network/interfaces.
