[Moonlight PC](http://moonlight-stream.com) is an open source implementation of NVIDIA's GameStream, as used by the NVIDIA Shield, but built to run on Windows, Mac, and Linux. This client is the successor to [Moonlight Chrome](https://github.com/moonlight-stream/moonlight-chrome) for streaming on PC.
Moonlight also has mobile versions for [Android](https://github.com/moonlight-stream/moonlight-android) and [iOS](https://github.com/moonlight-stream/moonlight-ios).
This client is currently still in development (pre-alpha), but the streaming performance is already much better than the older Moonlight Chrome client on many machines. Test releases may be available for your OS on the [Releases page](https://github.com/moonlight-stream/moonlight-qt/releases).
## Features
- Hardware accelerated video decoding on Windows, Mac, and Linux
- Supports streaming at up to 90 FPS on high refresh rate monitors
- Supports streaming at 720p, 1080p, 1440p, or 4K
- 5.1 surround sound audio
- HEVC support for better image quality at reduced bandwidth
- Keyboard and mouse support
- Gamepad support with SDL gamepad mappings
## Building
1. Install the latest Qt SDK (and optionally, the Qt Creator IDE) from https://www.qt.io/download (select MSVC toolchain on Windows)
2. Run `git submodule update --init --recursive` from within `moonlight-qt/`
