- Posts must be related to Steam Hardware or Steam OS in an obvious way.
- No piracy, there are other communities for that.

- Have fun.
It has been a busy few weeks, I haven't had time to really troubleshoot this further until today.
I have managed to get it a bit further. It now says "failed to connect to hostname", but Sunshine no longer closes when this occurs.
I have ensured that -moondeckbuddy settings.json contains correct sunshine_apps_filepath, registry_file_override, and steam_binary_override all point to the correct places -steam.sh is executable -in Sunshine -> applications -> command "/home/myname/Applications/MoonDeckBuddy-1.6.1-x86_64.AppImage --exec MoonDeckStream" is pointing to the correct place. I've included the "exec MoonDeckStream" but I'm not sure that is correct, still doesn't work with or without it -Steam Deck says that both GameStream and Buddy are online and paired
I really have no idea what else I could be doing wrong. I don't think it is a firewall rule or anything since I can get it to stream, just not with the moondeckbuddy.
