Currently the encoding process is really too heavy for some CPUs.
Would be great if you add the support for some kind of GPU accelerated encoding (for example using the native h264 encoder of Nvidia's kepler).

I'd like to have a FPS monitor with the other stats in the bottom left. Not sure if that's supposed to be beta only or something though.

Wouldnt it be better for performance to limit the sending devices resolution to res of the receiving device..
At this time i have to manualy change the res before streaming the game, because when i change the res ingame/while streaming, the stream crashes.

I dont want to stand up to shut down the host, it would be better if there were a option at the client for it.

Hello, I would like to use the host PC while doing a guest PC streaming

Hola yo quiero utilizar la PC host mientras hace streaming a la PC invitada por favor!!

Gracias! Thz

I think it would be cool if they added this streaming through mobile devices (android) as Onlive did a while back, but I can understand the limitations of the steam version, and how the OS is completely different.

I'd like to see the possibility to stream Music from the Hosts Pc while streaming games =)

Microphone support

I would like the ability to use the client's microphone in-game

It's simple to do:
- Add a custom game (not from Steam) on your host.
- Click Browse and choose c:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe
- Accept
- Right click on the "shutdown" on the list of games in Steam and click Properties
- Add "/s" in the 2nd exit box after the ", the whole line should look like this:
"C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe" /s

Use /s for shutdown, /r for restart, /h for hibernate.

Why don't you just share the folder with music and play it locally on your client?

Please help us to convince Valve to port the In-Home Streaming feature to the Raspberry Pi and make it a "thin streaming client".
A petition has been set up which you can support:

I like to co op with friends. not able to chat with mic is a big drawback.
sadly my current setup only allows in home streaming for gaming

I have situation. We have one TV which is in Sitting room and aslo connected to Host PC. Usually I watch TV and play games on Surface using Steam In-Home Streaming service. Where is one thing that I have razer naga epic (wireless mouse). If I want to use all mouse features so it have to be connected to Host PC. But if you use mouse on Host PC so you don't see mouse cursor on tablet.

We need mouse cursor visibilty when you using mouse from host PC.

Many thanks,

Robertas

I would like to have an ability to continue my work on a Linux-based PC while streaming games from another user. Currently when user switches TTY on the host, the stream freezes for all the time when another TTY is active
