Any recommendations for fine tuning Sunshine to match Nvidia's local Gamestream? I haven't had much luck in getting Sunshine to run as smoothly at 4K 120Hz HDR 150Mbps via LAN as Nvidia's deprecated streaming server software, so have to slow to migrate over.

Sunshine/Moonlight should perform better than Gamestream at the default settings.Try turning down your bitrate. 4K will work fine at 100Mbps.

Uh sunshine is usually MORE performant, not less. I would suggest heading to the Moonlight/Sunshine discord server and requesting help there.

Personally I have no issues streaming 4k@60 150mbps on a wired connection with moonlight and sunshine. Would try @120 if I had a display that supported it lol

I'm surprised I couldn't yet find a dummy HDMI plug to spoof a 4K@120Hz capable display. All the ones I've found thus far only support 120Hz at 1080p, and never any HDR support at all. I have an OLED android device with 2K screen and matching refresh rate, but the without a physical monitor to stream capturing from. Emulating such display resolutions and colored depths also seems just as formidably challenging.

Why not use one of the EDID cloning ones? All you need is access to a display with the features you need.

Have you tried the AV1 codec?

Aside from my PC, the newest device I own is only a snapdragon 8 gen 1 soc device, which I think sadly doesn't have a hardware AV1 decider. Definitely a consideration for later upgrades.
