Play Shadow PC on PineBook Pro - BeauS - 07-26-2019

Obviously no one has it yet so we wont know for a while. Is there a chance this software might work? Looks like they either support Android or Ubuntu OS.

With Android, probably will just work. 

For Linux, it will be much trickier and less likely. That program only seems to be compiled for x86 PCs, which the PBP is not. QEMU user mode emulation might work.

There are other ways to stream PC games to the Pinebook Pro. Its possible to use Limewire (or whatever the software is called - works with Nvidia cards) and that will works perfectly fine *

* granted you'r AC network is stable, good etc., etc.,

Moonlight is the software. I remember trying to get it to run on MrFixIt's desktop image on the rockpro64, but it not working. It had something to do with it not finding a good X11 configuration for Moonlight to display. That was a while ago, so it may not still be valid. I'm really hoping I can get Moonlight to work with the PBP.

Limewire is an entirely different software, also used for streaming, but of an entirely different kind Smile

Look here - Recalbox in Docker on PBP.  Recalbox has moonlight installed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHAeEj05JqI&t=1s
Granted
There will surely be dedicated RetroArena builds too - which include moonlight iirc - and RA has a desktop, so its well suited for a laptop.

Thanks Luke, I'll definitely be doing this!
