Need help with a slight problem

Hello, I love this app. It's EXACTLY what I've been looking for since last december and I've been using it for a few months now. I have a Google Nexus 5 (Lollipop) and it's rooted. I have Sprint and I my phone doesn't seem to locate my desktop over data but it does over Wi-Fi. Even if I'm on 4G LTE. I really would appreciate some feedback. Thanks. PS If you're accepting donations, tell me where because real developers like you deserve it!
[Shield General] NapalmDawn:
No. Wait until it comes out for Android for a FULL touchscreen experience. Hearthstone over GFE or Limelight, the touch is only a virtual mouse, not touch enabled.

You need to try deleting it from the app and from gamestream and repairing. this should work

Hard to play Mouse and Keyboard while streaming on Tablet

Hello,

Ok, so i'm on my couch watching tv, I have my tablet on my lap. I have no issues playing games via controller. My issue is I cant figure out a good way to play mouse and keyboard games while not at a desk. Does anyone have any suggestions? There are lots of games I want to play, but feel overwhelmed with like 5 things on my lap. Does anyone else have this issue while streaming games away from a desk?

Thanks!

Issues with new Geforce Experience 2.1.5

Ok so last night I updated my GeForce experience for the fist time from 2.1.4 to 2.1.5. I am currently using a Xbox 360 remote wireless, and I use it off the pc instead of my tablet while streaming. This means that I have to go in and but the .old next to the input file and it works just fine...at least it did for 2.1.4. Now that I updated to 2.1.5 I went in the folder and it showed the previous .old file still there. I am not sure if I need to delete that previous .old file or not but there is a new input file so I just changed that and added the .old to it. This caused to tell me there is already a file in that folder with that name and it called it the (2) copy of it instead of replacing. Am I supposed to delete that previous .old input file and just have 1? Also, now that I am on 2.1.5 I have noticed that while using the Xbox 360 controller that if I move the left stick just a little it moves what ever is on screen ALOT. And if I move the stick say all the way up it does almost nothing. I'm not sure what is going on but its very annoying. How can I fix this? I have also noticed that limelight now does not like to stream on my tablet in 1080p @ 60FPS, which it did previously with no issues. Has anyone else had any issues with 2.1.5? I'm debating just going back to 2.1.4

Bluetooth Mouse makes my screen show 2 mice

Hello All,

If I am trying to play and point and click game I will sync up my Bluetooth mouse to my tablet and play. However, when this happens it shows the mouse I am using and then another mouse under it, which I assume is the PC mouse. This ends up becoming an issue because they can be several inches apart and makes the entire experience unplayable. Does anyone know how I can just have 1 mouse show up and work while using a Bluetooth mouse on tablet with limelight?

Just a little update here... It appears those FCC Complaints are taken pretty seriously! I got a call of TracFone corporate office (which is the company that runs StraightTalk) the very same day that the FCC sent my complaint to them! The lady that called me was being a ***** at first, you could tell she was not happy that I had filed an FCC complaint, but she is trying to get the port blocking issue resolved. She said the guy that handles all the management of the networks was out of the office, but she will get back to me on Monday after talking to him. So hopefully they will get the PPTP VPN port 1723 un-blocked. I wanted to complaint about them blocking the audio and video ports for LimeLight, but I don't know which ports are used for the audio and video for limelight. As I said before, I can connect to limelight over mobile internet from StraightTalk, and the controls are sent to my PC, but I get no audio or video on the phone. It worked fine before with T-Mobile but doesn't work on StraightTalk so I know they are blocking some of the ports between 35043 and 48010 I just don't know which ones.
[Shield General] nk33:
Well they shouldn't be blocking any ports so tell them to unblock all of them otherwise you'll be filing another complaint lol

I really want to get this working with Google Cardboard but I can't get Limelight to work properly with my OnePlus One (neither the standard version nor the Root version). It seems to work fine, but after roughly 30 seconds or so it freezes with the error "Detecting high amounts of network packet loss" then catches up and runs perfectly for about another 30 seconds, then freezes again the same way. This happens over and over. I've tested the app with my Xperia Tablet Z as well as my brother's HTC One (M7) and it worked flawlessly on both. I should also point out that I'm using a 5Ghz Wifi connection and am sitting literally within a metre of the router, so there definitely shouldn't be any issues with connection strength. I'm also on the latest firmware - CM 11.0-XNPH44S

I notice someone else earlier in the thread had what sounded like the same issue with another OPO, so it must be something to do with the phone itself. Any help?

can you try with an ethernet adaptator ?

Envoyé de mon K00C en utilisant Tapatalk
[Shield General] nk33:
Is it 2.4 or 5g wifi?
[Shield General] trish01:
I unfortunately don't have an ethernet adapter.

5Ghz. I tested the connection via FTP transfers through ES File Explorer and it was recording speeds of at least 90mbits per second.
[Shield General] nk33:
Speed isn't as relevant as you think. It all comes down to data traffic collision. Though 5ghz should solve that problem.... Unless ur 5ghz network is using the se channel a nearby one..? Use wifi analyser to check this
[Shield General] trish01:
I did check for that, but according to Wifi Analyzer all the available channels are equally good (perfect ratings). My network is the only 5Ghz Wifi that my phone can detect.
[Shield General] nk33:
In that case mate, I would blame the wifi card in your device. Unless u try ethernet and it still gives same results?
[Shield General] MalaBouM:
[MENTION=2638321]trish01[/MENTION] you can disable 2.4ghz network on your router, this can also cause trouble with 5ghz channel if on the same router

[Shield General] trish01:
I tried switching the 2.4Ghz band off on my router but it didn't make any difference. Even with the target quality at 720p@30fps and bitrate at 1Mbps it still does exactly the same thing. Looks like I'll have to pick up a cheap ethernet adapter and give that a go.
[Shield General] nk33:
You may also want to try with another android device if you can get hold of one. If it happens with that also you may have to start looking at the host.…
[Shield General] trish01:
I already have. I tried it with an Xperia Tablet Z and an HTC One M7, both running CM11. Neither of them had an issue and Limelight worked perfectly, so it's got to be something with my OPO.
[Shield General] nk33:
Ok good. Next step ethernet.. ..keep us posted

Limelight for TV

Hey, do not think you to do Limelight for TV, such as Samsung or LG? It would be awesome!;)
[Shield General] nk33:
There are hacks for some smart tvs which allow you to put custom firmware on them and therefore more apps. I think limelight would be difficult as you then also have to add controller support…

Limelight IOS

I just want to say thanks to everyone working on this project specially to the ones who ported the app to IOS devices I never thought it was going to be possible and now I am streaming pc games to my iPad air 2 flawlessly seating on my sofa 20 feet away from the router I have no way to check latency or I don't know how to do it with the ios app but there is no hickups or slowdown I cant believe how perfect it is

using the ipega 9023 is like having a gaming pc in your hands just like the razer edge was without the cable also I notice full rgb color reproduction in the iPad the colors dont feel washed out :)
[Shield General] jfp555:
Thanks cgutman and the other devs/testers of this amazing app.

I posted a few weeks ago regarding device comparisons. My system is finally setup and just tested Assassins Creed Black Flag a little while ago.

At the moment I am running :

I7 4790

16gb ram

msi gaming 970

win 8.1 x64

geforce experinxe 2.1.5.0

Netgear r6300 V2 (dual band router)

Tested out rooted Limelight version on S4 (1080p res) on 5ghz spectrum

and Non rooted limelight on crappy lenovo yoga 8 (720p native res) on 2.4 ghz spectrum (only one available on this tablet)

Both experiences were very playable with an OTG cable powered controller.

Latency difference was about 20 ms higher on S4 than on lenovo yoga 8 (which has a mediatek processor)

Personally I'm quite happy with it all. Its quite a sight to behold. I will try to update this post soon with exact numbers and then do a comparison at equal settings of both devices (720p).

End goal is to get a Kobo Arc 10hd (a 10 inch android tablet with tegra 4 and 2x2 MIMO wifi capability)

Thanks again guys! No need to buy nvidias overpriced, poorly designed streaming hardware. :D

:good:
[Shield General] MalaBouM:
hi for your tablet you can also consider asus tf701 (K00C), tegra 4, screen UHD 10 inchs and usb 3 on dock keyboard. I have this one and i can stream 1080/60 with 5ms of latency with wifi or 1ms latency with ethernet dongle !

Controller support for Dragon Age: Inquisition

Hi guys,

limelight is a great tool and works just fine for me. I am running limelight on a Kindle FireTV connected with a GeForce GTX 970 over WiFi and a wireless Xbox-360-controller (receiver plugged into the FireTV). The controller works for the FireTV itself as for most of my games in Steam or UPlay, but not for Origin games like Dragon Age: Inquisition or watch_dogs. They're loading and being streamed but won't react to any buttons pressed on the controller.

Did I miss to check something in the options?

I'd really apprechiate if someone could help me solve this problem as I'd like to play DA:I on my big screen.

Thanx in advance!

[Shield General] the_mentor:
I was the Other OnePlus One user that complained about the same issue.

I tried to test with a USB OTG and a USB Ethernet adapter but the phone doesn't seem to detect the adapter.

I've tested the same adapter with my Nexus Player without any issue so that is strange.

I'll keep trying to get the Ethernet adapter to work so i can test and report back even though i don't think its the phone's WiFi chip that is causing this issue.
[Shield General] jazzdreamer:
Sorry if there is a better place to ask this question, but this is the only thread I have found discussing limelight.

I just started using limelight and have been able to stream from my desktop to my laptop, but I am having an issue when playing first person shooters. When I click the right mouse button my weapon brings up the gun sight/scope, but when I left click to fire the gun drops back to the hip. Is there any way around this?

I don't see that in mine. I just checked and I have 0.5.8 beta. I click "Options" and I have a choice of "Gamepad Settings" and "Preferences". Gamepad settings just has gamepad settings. and Preferences just has the options I listed above.
[Shield General] nk33:
Ok, sorry, what about in the game… you can set them in game
[Shield General] jazzdreamer:
Ah...well the functionality of the right click and left click is not something one changes normally. The game works fine without streaming. When streaming it appears to be the case that Limelight is only handling one mouse button input at a time, cancelling out the right mouse button with the left when this should be aim down sights and fire.
[Shield General] nk33:
Aha! I see… this is one for the developer methinks.

Maybe time to get pc xbox pad. They work really well and give a nice gaming feel.
[Shield General] jazzdreamer:
Ya I tried with my xbox pad and it works fine, but i'd prefer to play with mouse/keyboard. i guess it's not the end of the world ;-p

Im also getting this error. I have no problems pairing, just cant get games list.

Im running beta of steam, latest GFE.

ive tested with 2 different modems, firewall off.

tested with Nexus 7 and nexus 4, neither can get game list.

disabled software firewall on pc.

Ive shared the games folder which is on D: . Which made it work once, then lost connection and wont get games list again.

Any help appreciated.
[Shield General] cgutman:
Filed a bug to investigate this:

Did you try adding the games folder to GFE's game scanning directory list in preferences?
[Shield General] Sinister13:
Yep sure did, its found 40 games.

Would it be a conflict with some other streaming, dlna servers or remote access software? i have a few installed. Ive tried disabling a few of them

I can get Kinoconsole to work but that dosnt use GFE , has its own server.

HTC M8 Regular packet loss on LAN - even at lowest setting

Hi,

Firstly thanks for an incredible piece of software. I've been dreaming about getting steam on my living room TV for years (without lugging the PC downstairs after everyone has gone to sleep!) and the fact this works so well and is free is incredible. Well done devs, and thank you. This really is a game-changer.

Anyways - I have been searching around but can't find anyone with the same issue as me. I'm running limelight on a non-rooted HTC M8, outputting to my living room TV using an MHL adapter and playing alien isolation using wireless keyb and mouse which are tethered to the host PC which is sat upstairs (so pleased that works through two walls!)

Trouble is I'm getting terrible packet loss every 3-5 minutes and can't work out what the source is. I'm just pausing the game every time it happens (it usually lasts 20 seconds or so), but it is odd and I can't for the life of me find the solution. I think the problem is definitely with the phone itself as I also have a Nexus 7 (2013) and I don't get the packet loss happening at all with that. So a simple solution is to just use the nexus instead, I just don't have a slimport adapter right now. Plus the wife might need it, so I'd prefer to use my M8.

Has anyone else seen this issue with an HTC M8? I've tried:

- The lowest resolution / mbps, same thing happens as when I set it to the highest settings

- Only using the 5ghz Wifi band

- Switching off mobile data, disabling bluetooth, GPS, etc on the phone... no change

- Disabling other resident apps (Amazon webstore, Bus Countdown, Facebook, Whatsapp, Plex, etc).

Is there an app I can install from the play store to see what is causing the packet loss? It must be the phone as the Nexus 7 on the same wireless LAN doesn't have the issue.

Maybe I've picked up some malware on my phone?

Thanks for reading... hope someone has heard of this before
[Shield General] the_mentor:
Ok so i've tested with the ethernet driver and everything seems to work flawlessly no skips what so ever.

Then I tested again with WiFi and the issue is almost gone I barely see it at all.

Keep in mind that i'm running nightlies and keep updating my phone so maybe they fixed something since the last time i've tested this app and experienced the issue.
[Shield General] EinherjarX:
I just stumbled upon this app by sheer coincidence and it appeared to be too good to be true. For me, it actually was :/

Ive downloaded the most recent App from the Play Market on my Nexus 5, got a stream ready PC, ports all forwarded, firewall deactivated, GFE and Steam running, paired both system...

And thats when the fun starts:

After selecting my PC on my phone, i get a selection of all the games, GFE picked as compatible and the Steam App. Starting Steam will result in it going into Big Picture mode...and "Connection Terminated" on my phone, BP Mode closes. Starting a game will result in the game loading up and "Connection Terminated"

Pretty much everything crashes after the first second. It even got so bad, that my PC blue screened while i tried to reboot it.

I have no clue whats going wrong here. My Network as a whole is quite good. Steams In-Home Streaming for instance, infamous for being unusable via WiFi, runs without any lag.

Can't find PC

So I was trying to get this to work on my Xperia z3 compact by connecting to my laptop (which is running a GTX 870M) and initially limelight could detect my laptop but returned a GFE 404 error, so I opened and updated my GeForce experience to version 2.1.5.0 and now limelight can't even locate my laptop. I've tried connecting manually, restarting both devices, disabling my firewall, and reinstalling limelight. Anyone know how I might be able to get it to connect to my PC?

Limelight with Unitymedia NRW (Dual Stack Lite)

Hello,

is there anyone here who got Gamestream with Unitymedia Cable (NRW - Germany) working?

The problem is that Unitymedia NRW is using DS-Lite (Dual Stack Lite) which means that you get an real IPV6 Address and an shared IPV4 Address. So it is not possible to open ports on IPV4 address.

But it is possible to get remote connection via IPV6 like i do with Jdownloader.

It seems to be that Nvidia Gamestream is not supporting DS-Lite because it alway shows IPV4 instead of IPV6 as external IP address. :(

Anyone got the same problem?

Kind Regards

Rainer
[Shield General] solidunit:
Not sure where the right place is for a feature request, but I'd like to suggest on screen keyboard support (similar to how official gamestream devices like the shield work). Some games require me to hit escape to exit out or some other key combo (FFXIII for example)

Amazing app! Thanks to the devs
[Shield General] trish01:
Got an update finally. The ethernet adapter and USB OTG cable I ordered arrived today. Just tried to get them working with both my OPO and my Xperia tablet but neither of them seem to work. The USB OTG cable works fine for connecting up other USB devices like a flash drive and a wired mouse, but I get no response from using the Ethernet adapter. Looks like I can't test to see if it's the wireless causing the problem.
[Shield General] cswoape:
I have an OPO and the app works flawlessly. Doesn't really help your issue but I wanted to give what little info I could.
[Shield General] Flimmykins:
I hate to add onto the barrage of questions, but I can't find anything about this whatsoever. Tried searching the thread and most results are about other issues.

Basically, the app works great on my Moto G so thank you. The problem is, when I try to use Sixaxis (wirelessly), Limelight begins to totally mess up. If a ps3 controller is connected to my phone, limelight often can't recieve my apps list. If it does, then it times-out when attemping to open or resume a game. As soon as I disconnect my ps3 controller, I'm able to continue streaming to my phone again as normal. Obviously there's somehow some kind of interference, but it doesn't seem to be happening for anybody else using this method.

Any idea?

Trading my gs4 for a Verizon HTC one today. Based on what I am reading it looks like the Roms from the general HTC one Dev section work on the vzw phone as well. Is this really the case?

Actually, Verizon is not a GSM variant of the HTC One, so most ROMs in here won't work. I think you should check: http://xdaforums.com/verizon-htc-one

If you do end up flashing a ROM from here make sure it says VERIZON compatible; most ROMs already state "except for Sprint", but that also means Verizon AFAIK.
