#Limelight

Limelight is an open source implementation of NVIDIA's GameStream, as used by the NVIDIA Shield, but built for Linux/OSX/Windows.

Limelight-pc allows you to stream your full collection of Steam games from your powerful Windows desktop to another PC or laptop running Linux/OSX/Windows.

Limelight also has an Android implementation.

##Features

  • Streams Steam and all of your games from your PC to your Linux/OSX/Windows machine.
  • Keyboard and Mouse support
  • Full support for XBOX 360 controllers, PS3 and PS4 controllers, and other HID gamepads
  • Full Windows, OS X, and Linux Support

##Features to come

  • Use mDNS to scan for compatible GFE machines on the network
  • Choose from the list of available games instead of just launching Steam

##Installation

##Requirements

  • GFE compatible computer with GTX 600/700 series GPU (for the PC you're streaming from)
