It might be possible to get a better result via the advanced parameters that can be added to streaming_args.txt such as -burst or -hardwarebitratelimit, but I haven't had time to test said in SteamLink for Raspberry Pi Released: I keep getting a spike in the decoder (light blue and red lines in the streaming OSD statistics). On my Pi3B (revision a02082), I'm having difficulty getting a smooth streaming experience with any of the preset bitrate/quality settings for 60fps at 1360x768. That's interesting - I wasn't aware there was a Pi 2 with ARMv8 cores. The binary should work on these boards too, but definitively not on RPI 0/1.Įdit: funny enough, their script seems to actually check on the processor information itself, not the board nor revisions, which should pass on an RPI2 with a BCM2837 processor, so their error message is not fully true either. Touch said in SteamLink for Raspberry Pi, the RPI 2 revision 1.2 have the same CPU as the RPI3, as described in a22042ĒB (with BCM2837)đ.2đ GBĞmbest A temporary fix would be to manually create the override yourself: mkdir -p '~/.local/share/SteamLink/' Seems odd that they'd bother to implement a CPU override in the scripts perhaps they might recompile for ARMv6 at a later time, but it's said in SteamLink for Raspberry Pi You just install it as any other package - update your RetroPie-Setup script, then go into the experimental packages section, find steamlink and then install it - as said in a previous post.Īs I mentioned earlier, it won't yet work until the second PR is merged. Tag_Virtualization_use: TrustZone and Virtualization Extensions It's possible to enforce a framerate limit by creating the file ~.local/share/Valve Software/Streaming Client/streaming_args.txt and adding this:Įdit: no, it wouldn't be possible as the binary is definitely compiled for ARMv8: readelf -A ~/.local/share/SteamLink/bin/streaming_client I wonder if this can launch on a Pi Zero/2/1, albeit with reduced streaming quality?

Show_message -error 'You need to run on a Raspberry Pi 3 or newer - aborting.' Revision=$(cat /proc/cpuinfo | fgrep 'Revision' | sed 's/.*: //') I also noticed this in the same script: # Check to make sure the hardware is capable of streaming at 1080p60
