Configuration

The name displayed by Moonlight. If not specified, the PC's hostname is used

The minimum log level printed to standard out

The origin of the remote endpoint address that is not denied access to Web UI

Automatically configure port forwarding

Automatically configure port forwarding

How long to wait in milliseconds for data from moonlight before shutting down the stream

The display modes advertised by Sunshine
Some versions of Moonlight, such as Moonlight-nx (Switch), rely on this list to ensure that the requested resolutions and fps are supported.

The private key must be 2048 bits

The certificate must be signed with a 2048 bit key

The file where current state of Sunshine is stored

The file where current apps of Sunshine are stored

The back/select button on the controller.
On the Shield, the home and powerbutton are not passed to Moonlight.
If, after the timeout, the back button is still pressed down, Home/Guide button press is emulated.
If back_button_timeout < 0, then the Home/Guide button will not be emulated

Control how fast keys will repeat themselves
The initial delay in milliseconds before repeating keys

How often keys repeat every second
This configurable option supports decimals

The name of the audio sink used for Audio Loopback
You can find the name of the audio sink using the following command:

tools\audio-info.exe

The name of the audio sink used for Audio Loopback
If you do not specify this variable, pulseaudio will select the default monitor device.

You can find the name of the audio sink using either command:

pacmd list-sinks | grep "name:"

pactl info | grep Source

The virtual sink, is the audio device that's virtual (Like Steam Streaming Speakers), it allows Sunshine to stream audio, while muting the speakers.

You can select the video card you want to stream:
The appropriate values can be found using the following command:

tools\dxgi-info.exe

You can select the video card you want to stream:
The appropriate values can be found using the following command:

xrandr --listmonitors
Example output:

Set the familly of ports used by Sunshine

Quantitization Parameter
Some devices may not support Constant Bit Rate.
For those devices, QP is used instead.
Higher value means more compression, but less quality

Minimum number of threads used by ffmpeg to encode the video.
Increasing the value slightly reduces encoding efficiency, but the tradeoff is usually
worth it to gain the use of more CPU cores for encoding. The ideal value is the lowest
value that can reliably encode at your desired streaming settings on your hardware.

Allows the client to request HEVC Main or HEVC Main10 video streams.
HEVC is more CPU-intensive to encode, so enabling this may reduce performance when using software encoding.

Force a specific encoder, otherwise Sunshine will use the first encoder that is available

Percentage of error correcting packets per data packet in each video frame.
Higher values can correct for more network packet loss, but at the cost of increasing bandwidth usage.
The default value of 20 is what GeForce Experience uses.

When multicasting, it could be useful to have different configurations for each connected Client. For example:

• Clients connected through WAN and LAN have different bitrate contstraints.
• Decoders may require different settings for color

Unlike simply broadcasting to multiple Client, this will generate distinct video streams.
Note, CPU usage increases for each distinct video stream generated

Store Username/Password seperately from Sunshine's state file.

The origin of the remote endpoint address that is not denied for HTTP method /pin

If no external IP address is given, Sunshine will automatically detect external IP
