Hi all, I've been thinking about setting things up so I can play Steam games on my TV but I'm a little confused on the setup. So here's what I was planning:

  • main laptop in office will stream the game
  • TV in living room connected to Nvida shield
  • Nvidia shield runs Steam Link to connect to laptop
  • Controllers connect to Nvidia shield??

I think the main thing that confuses me is if I can connect my controllers to the Nvidia shield or do they need to connect to the laptop?

Anyone have a similar setup that works?

Not sure what tv you have- smart tvs today sometimes can run steam link natively.
