Using bluetooth mouse and keyboard

Hello,

I like this project very much. It looks very promising...

I have one question:

I would like to play Fallout 4 on my Galaxy Tab.

I would very much like to play it on the Galaxy Tab as on my pc. This means i would like to play using mouse and keyboard connectet to my tablet via bluetooth and not the on-screen controllers. I mean i would like to control the game with keyboard 'wasd' and aiming and shooting via mouse.

Is this possible? I'd like to play in my living-room wirhout moving my big pc from the cellar to the living-room. My wife would not like that either.....

I don't like the xbox controller thing. I like playing pc-style with keyboard and mouse.

Many thanks.

All they did was change the name of the title… you dont need to do anything about it… lol

I am unable to add executables in GFE, I can only add folders and it seems to only pick up the games it wants to. That is why I am asking.

[Shield General] nk33:
I have the latest GFE and I can add exe's.

Preferences, shield… drag the shortcuts in.
[Shield General] jeebspawnshop:
That's gonna suck, because BT uses the same frequency spectrum as WiFi, so when you start playing your game using BT peripherals and WiFi, you're gonna experience little micro-stutters during gameplay.

I tried to ignore it when I used BT peripherals, but it eventually drove me utterly mad; I spent 3 months in a rehab hospital and an additional 1 year with a therapist.

I'm using wired peripherals now, and I'm quite happy.

Ok. Thanks for that information. I would also be happy if I could do it with a usb keyboard and usb mouse. Tried a usb keyboard, but it did not work ingame. I have been able to write on my tablet, but it seems as moonlight does ignore my keyboard ingame. Same with a usb mouse. Any way to solve this? Did anybody try to use usb peripherals to control the games played with moonlight?
[Shield General] Theaxiom:
I am unable to add exe's as you describe.
[Shield General] jeebspawnshop:
Try use the *root* version of Moonlight - it's much better at capturing keyboard and mouse input.

Also, before any of that, ensure that the keyboard and mouse are working as input devices in regular Android. For example, open up a web browser, type something in to the address bar, hit enter, then browse with your mouse.

If that works, then Moonlight should work too.
[Shield General] scos_tester:
I already got the root version of moonlight. My Galaxy Tab is rooted. And the mouse and keyboard work normal under android. I can write emails and start apps using the mouse.

Unfortunately they both do not work ingame in monlight. I can start a game using mouse or keyboard, but after that i can not use them any more ingame. They simply do not react. Am I doing something wrong?

[Shield General] nk33:
Thats wierd. I have the same version of gfe and mine has a shield option on the preferences tab.

Please uninstall, reboot, and reinstall. Repair all the devices
[Shield General] Theaxiom:
I've already tried that, even used driver cleaner (multiple times) and checked "clean installation". I contacted nVidia support as well. Streaming works just fine, but I'd really like those options.
[Shield General] nk33:
So I dont get it… if you cant add games then what do you stream.??

I think you should reply to Nvidia and ask them why others you know have got the exact same version of GFE and have a shield tab to add games manually under preferences and you haven't
[Shield General] abracadabra1:
I think Nvidia has done certain things to make it only recognize a gamepad in certain titles like FO4. Try a game that does not have gamepad support to verify this. I bet your keyboard and mouse will work fine. This info will not fix your problem but at least explain it and maybe someone can develop a fix. My own computer mouse and keyboard don't work in the game (F04 and other gamepad titles) while it is streaming.

Hope this helps u. I have had a big battle with geforce experience. When I first started using it it worked great. Later after update 2.7ish it was nothing but problems getting it to load. Also missing tabs in the preferences or showing the add game option but not being able to click them. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling. I even wiped my PC with a fresh windows 10 copy.

The only thing I could get to work was completley removing GFE and installing an old 2.4 or 2.5

version. On the first start up(before it auto updates) set up any additional .exe that want to be able to run. Make sure you add the whole desktop one(see moonlight "set up" web page) so u can launch any title you want in the future. After GFE updates you can try it but the shield tab may be missing for u as it has done to me or it may just hang and crash like it still does for me. Either way your game/exe list will still be programmed in there and ready to launch via moonlight.

Good luck.
[Shield General] Theaxiom:
Thanks for that, sad part is I have the shield console.
[Shield General] scos_tester:
Ok. Thanks. I will try a different game and test.
[Shield General] abracadabra1:
I may be confused as to your problem. You want to add programs/games to the list of things you can stream from your pc to your shield TV console?

Also you are using moonlight instead of the built in feature on the Shield? I assume this as this is the moonlight streaming forum about streaming to non shield devices.

Edit.

I saw your earlier post from nvidia about games list now being edited from device instead of Windows GFE. Is that beta they are talking about? "Games" under preferences tab is there for me(when I can get GFE to load). I'm on the latest non beta version. Please try what I suggested to u as I had the same problem and was able to work around it as described.
[Shield General] kerheol:
I've reinstalled Windows but nothing has changed. I've verified port 48010 is opened but error remains :(

[Shield General] abracadabra1:
Have u tried a few different release versions of GFE including GFE beta? Don't know if it will help but couldn't hurt to try. Also is the handshake issue only caused by Steam or every title u try to stream? Shouldn't need port forwarding over local network
[Shield General] nk33:
Cant believe anyone would bother to reinstall windows just to try and sort out issues with gfe

Clearly there is an easier solution than this ...always.
[Shield General] kerheol:
Yes, I've tried 3 o 4 different GFE versions, including last beta. I've tried to launch Steam and some of Steam games that appear in Moonlight menu. Everytime I get the same error. I've tried also root Moonlight, launching it in a 1+1 and a GPD XD but this ****ing error always appears.

Sure. Reinstalling is a bit drastic. I use Linux and I've just installed Windows to try this so it's not a real pain to reinstall it as it's just a new and clean installation.

[Shield General] nk33:
Dont get me wrong… the windows install is easy. Its getting all your software reinstalled and everything else just the way you want it that takes days!

I would recommend cloning your drive as is, then reinstalling windows.. Testing if the issue is resolved… because then if it isnt then u simply clone it back to get everything the way it was and you waste A LOT less time. ACRONIS 2016 is good for this…
[Shield General] kerheol:
Yes, I know but what I did was reinstall a different version of Windows. First one was W10 Pro N. Second one W10 Pro. I'm not very acquainted in Windows differences so I rather reinstall everything with this new package.

Anyway, error is still there. Is there any log or similar I can attach to offer more information or to look at?

You have to ask the devs. I am just a user.

Maybe its the Win 10 thing. I am on win 7
[Shield General] the_uker:
I am having an issue where, while it did work some time ago with Xbox 360 controllers, now I'm unable to use my wireless Xbox One controllers to play via Moonlight.

It just doesn't register any input.

The controllers work fine on the PC when Moonlight is not active.

I also tried tinkering with Moonlight's controller options (there's 2 of them) but to no avail.

Any ideas, please?

Thanks in advance.
[Shield General] nk33:
How are you connecting the wireless rf dongle? Are you using an OTG adapter?
[Shield General] the_uker:
No, the pads are connected to the PC not the Fire TVS.
[Shield General] nk33:
Theres your problem. If you are streaming, the input has to be connected to the client not the host.... Unless you make a modification in gfe… not sure on the details on this.

The best thing to do is get an otg cable for ur device and plug the usb rf dongle for ur 360 controller into that. Then it will work 100%
[Shield General] the_uker:
The problem is, I play primarily on my PC and having to carry the receiver to the Fire TVS is a real inconvenience.

Also, buying controllers specific to the FTVS is not something I'd want to do.

Furthermore, I used to play with no issues with the Xbox 360 controllers connected to the PC, but I don't know if the change came from a new version of Moonlight, or my switching to Xbox One controllers.

Is this limitation on the side of NV GameStream or Moonlight?
[Shield General] nk33:
Simple, just buy another receiver. They are like £7 on amazon/ebay
[Shield General] the_uker:
Again, you're missing the part that I'm using Xbox One controllers, not Xbox 360.

Also, if I bought a new receiver, I would have to re-pair the controllers to one receiver or the other, which is probably more inconvenient than carrying over a single receiver.

In any case, I already solved the issue and I'm playing like I intended to.

The solution is to delete rxinput.dll from the NvStreamSrv folder both in Program files and Program files (x86).

Hope it helps someone else.

Cheers!
[Shield General] nk33:
sorry mate - didnt realise you wre using One controlers. my bad.

however i would disagree with you on the other point you make. I have 4 receivers, one for each of my pc's and devices. i find it a lot easier to press the pair button then unplugging the same receiver every time i wanna use a different device...or going upstairs, realising the receiver aint there, then running down to go and get it, or leaving the house and realising i aint got my ONE receiver with me ,,.,...i have one in my bag :)
[Shield General] slayer418:
Any news about being able to Alt-tab or press Winkey without interupting the stream session?

STREAMING_SESSION_ABORTED_BY_HOTKEY is logged in the NvStreamer's log when these inputs are sent.

I tried debugging Nvstreamer.exe and found when "STREAMING_SESSION_ABORTED_BY_HOTKEY" is being written to the log file but I couldn't find how to override the hotkey triggering, maybe someone better at debugging could give it a try.
[Shield General] nk33:
Even though it logs the alt tab, you can stil alt tab back to your game… I do it all the time… just remember to pause the game before u alt tab LOL
[Shield General] slayer418:
I'm only streaming desktop most of the time, even when I'm playing, my games are in fullscreen borderless.
[Shield General] nk33:
Yep. Whats your point? Me too
[Shield General] nk33:
Can anyone let me know how to clear all the cache and temp files assoociated with the PC version of this. I think it affects when i want to use a newer version.

With a new install pc, i can use the latest (0.7.3) no problem and it works well.

With pcs where i have already used old versions it hangs and wont connect. (think its at the "input" bit just before you are supposed to get the picture. i get sound but no video - really strange.

thanks in advance for any help.
[Shield General] Sai3412:
Have you had any luck finding a solution? It had been working great for me, then I got the exact same problem. "Failed to start RTSP handshake. Unable to connect to UDP port 48010"

- Android with latest Moonlight (4.5.5).

- Windows 10 64 bit.

- GeForce Experience version 2.10.2.40.

I didn't try reinstalling windows like you did, but I did try reinstalling GEForce Experience and Moonlight, and neither helped.
[Shield General] kerheol:
Nop. I've tried everything but it's not working. I've the same versions you have so perhaps it's a W10 64bits related problem

Has anyone seen this? If it works it's a game changer. Might not work with Moonlight though

4:3 support

Has anyone figured out way to get this to do proper full screen for a 4:3 aspect ratio. I have a tab s2 and stretched screen looks horrible. Would like to use all of my screen real estate. Tried changing the computer resolution but just stretches it still. Thanks in advance. If not is there a way to contact the dev and ask for this feature? Theres a lot of Android tablets coming out with this aspect ratio.
[Shield General] nk33:
well this question makes no sense...if you use 4:3 aspect ratio in game and your device is 16:9, you have no choice, you will get black area left and right lol
[Shield General] abracadabra1:
The question makes perfect sense. My device is not 16:9 it is 4:3.

If I want to play at say 1024x768 which is a 4:3 aspect ratio. It will leave bars on the side of my computer monitor. Which has a 16:9 aspect. However that image would fit my Tab S2 screen perfect. Except that moonlight does not give support for anything but 16:9 resolutions (720, 1080, and 4k) so when the image is sent to my device it still treats it as a 16:9 and cuts off the bottom STILL and the sides. So when I use strectch it only stretches to fill the top and bottom and not the sides. I'll post some screen shots later.

Lots of games support 4:3 aspects still even though most monitors are 16:9 and they do this by showing more image vertically and less horizontal. Not with black bars or stretching.

Hey

I have a problem

I am playing on pc and stream on iPad Air 2

All Works good, but:

I want to play with my gamepad, connected to pc

I renamed rename rxinput.dll to rxinput.dll.old and now gamepad works

But now i have not sound on PC, and No Sound on iPad

What i can do?

Sorry for my bad english
[Shield General] nk33:
Baffled!
[Shield General] abracadabra1:
So I figured out workaround to this issue. It would in theory work for someone playing on an iPad too.

If this is of interest to anyone else let me know and I'll post detailed steps maybe with some screen shots.
[Shield General] adichandra:
wow. i have been using moonlight in marshmallow, the quality is set only at 3Mbps and i experience jitter and lag, and sometimes frame loss. decided to downgrade to lollipop on my nexus 5 because i need to use sixaxis controller to make my dualshock 3 works with bluetooth. MY GOD! the quality of moonlight streaming is like day and night. it's smooth now with less than 13ms ping. im glad i downgraded my nexus 5 to lollipop.

any idea why it works not reliable in marshmallow?
[Shield General] jeebspawnshop:
Cuz MM is trash...
[Shield General] adichandra:
Well mm is goof for everything else. Especially doze. But yes, my primary use is for moonlight. So MM is trash indeed. Lol

Hi

I want to know if moonlight can forward the mic to the host pc.

I really want to play division in bed while my wife reads or watch tv but I need to be able to talk with my team.

Thanks

[Shield General] Sai3412:
It may be a Windows 10 issue, but I've confirmed it's definitely a problem with the Android Moonlight software too. On a whim, I decided to see if my ancient iPad 2 would connect to GFE, and it worked perfectly in repeated tests. (The iPad 2 has a very low-res screen, so while it connects flawlessly, it's not ideal for gameplay.)

Here's the strange part. On one of the tests, I accidentally closed the iPad Moonlight app without shutting down the game on my PC, and my Android phone showed that there was still a game in progress. I clicked resume in Android moonlight, and it bypassed the handshake problem and connected! I've confirmed this several times, and can connect my Android through this inconvenient Frankensteined process. However, if I close the game on the PC, I cannot reconnect from Android Moonlight without getting the handshake error.

- Sai

PS: On the off chance it's an Android OS issue, I'm running 5.1.1 on a Samsung Galaxy Note 4.
[Shield General] jeebspawnshop:
Sadly I've not used Moonlight for some time, but yesterday I tried to use it again.

Notice the word "tried" - I've never experienced any issues with the PC version (jar) before, but when I fired it up yesterday, it always failed at "Initiating input something something". I tried numerous versions both before and after the new OpenGL rendered was built in, and the results were the same. On some really old versions, the errors were worse and the program kicked out on the very first step of pairing.

I should mention that the rooted Moonlight apk which I run on my Tab Z works flawlessly!

I know this is the Android support forum, but I hoped I could get a little knowledge bomb about the PC client so I can play from work on my AMD-based computer :D

If you'd rather me not speak of the PC client here again, please tell me so.
[Shield General] nk33:
I have had exactly the same problems on some of my pcs with the newer versions. It hangs at exactly the same place. I have not had a response from the devs either.

However I have found version 0.6.2 works on the pcs that dont work with the new versions.

Hope this helps.
[Shield General] kerheol:
I can confirm this. I've just tried Moonlight Linux client and it works perfectly when I try to connect to Windows 10. I've tried to emulate your solution, but it doesn't work for me. If I close Linux client and I try to resumen from Android I receive the same error message. If i try to connect from Android while Linux client is still connected, Linux client crashes and Android shows a different error but it's not able to connect.

So it looks as it's not a Windows 10 issue at all!!

External vs Internal PC Name

Hi all, I attempted to see if this was posed before, but couldn't find a matching question. So, if this has been asked before, my apologies.

I have set up streaming both internally and via the internet. Now, when I switch streaming types (internal network -> internet streaming, or vise-versa), when I look up my PC (either by external internet IP or internal IP), the newly added PC overwrites the existing connection. That means that every time I want to leave the house, I have to manually enter in my address and overwrite my internal PC link on the main menu. Is there any way around this? Is it an existing bug? Wouldn't it be better to identify the PC by both the PC name AND the IP used to connect to the machine? Maybe it would be best to allow us to edit the PC entries, give them separate names, specify the IP / host name to connect to, etc.

Should I put in a bug request on the repo?

Thank you!

Update: Found out that the PC IP is not overwritten, but instead both profiles go under the one PC icon, and it selects the appropriate IP automatically. No way of knowing that until I did some testing.

3 sec judder every 60 seconds.

I have been trying to get moonlight to work with my note4 for quite a while. It will run smooth and crisp on any setting but like clockwork it will get choppy for 2-3 seconds about once a minute. It is just barely enough that I can't focus on a game and have a lot of frustrating moments. At first I thought a different router would help but it didn't change anything. I also thought it could be upstairs neighbors interference but it seems consistent no matter what time. I tried turning off bluetooth but still get the judder. I recently updated to windows 10 and that didn't fix it, neither have the many updates to the android app or geforce experience. I have also tried resetting my PC and note 4. If it were that the note 4 weren't powerful enough I don't feel like it would run as smooth as it does.

Has anyone else had this problem or know what it could be? My only guess is it could be background software running on my phone or PC, or interference from my wireless 360 controller? Still it seems odd that would happen every 60 seconds. That is the major clue here and the main reason I have stuck with this so long trying to fix it. It just doesn't seem random like it could be a hardware limitation or interference. I do feel like the judder lasts 1-2 seconds shorter than it used to, but it could just be me. I am going to try connecting with an iphone and see if I get any different results.

Edit: I have no problems or judder at all with an Iphone 5. Smooth as silk. So now I am feeling like it is a background process on my note 4. I am trying out some different roms and in particular, I haven't bothered to upgrade to lollipop yet, maybe it has smoothed out in the past year and will fix my issue.
[Shield General] kerheol:
I finally make it work!! The combination Moonlight Android root 4.5.3 and Windows 10 Pro 64b + GFE 2.10.2.40 works just fine. Last Linux Moonlight client also works fine so it's a problem with 4.5.4 and 4.5.5 Android versions

PLEASE READ: Users with issues on Moonlight Android v4.5.5 or PC v0.7.3/0.6.5

I need some data from you to try to debug the issue. I can't reproduce this myself on any of the Moonlight versions, GFE versions, or PCs I've tried.

Please post or PM me:

1. What version of Windows you're running on your GeForce PC

2. What version of GeForce Experience you're running

3. What version of Moonlight you're running and for which platforms (list all that you've tried - working and non-working) - Please list exact device models that you've tried

4. What anti-virus and firewall software you're running on your PC

5. Whether you're streaming from your LAN or over the Internet

6. About how many seconds it takes for the RTSP error message to be displayed after the RTSP handshake begins (trying to figure out whether it's a timeout or an error)

7. Please try starting a fresh stream (don't resume an existing one) on the version of Moonlight that gave you the error, then upload and PM me a link to your log in C:\ProgramData\NVIDIA Corporation\NvStream\NvStreamerCurrent.log (C:\ProgramData is a hidden directory so you may need to enable hidden files and folders to see it)

8. Users with basic knowledge of Wireshark: Please try running a Wireshark capture on your PC, then trying to stream from it on the version of Moonlight that gave you the error, then save the packet capture and PM a link to it to me.

Update:

9. What brand and model of router you have

Thanks for your help in advance
