About Moonlight Game Streaming Team

Moonlight is a client for streaming games and other applications from a remote PC. The host computer runs compatible streaming software, and Moonlight displays the stream on a client device while sending controls back to the host. The supplied information describes support for high dynamic range on Steam Deck and other HDR-capable Linux systems through a Vulkan-based renderer. The client supports hardware video decoding for H.264, HEVC, and AV1 through Vulkan Video. It can wake a sleeping host when a stream is started from the command line, and it provides error codes and detailed PC-state information to help explain connection issues. A performance overlay can be configured to appear automatically when streaming begins. Moonlight supports end-to-end stream encryption when connecting to a compatible version of its host software. The evidence does not specify network requirements, available resolutions, or controller support. Its documented role is remote game and application streaming, with hardware decoding, host wake-up, diagnostics, and optional encrypted connections.
