      @jovanny-paulin said in Problem with moonlight:

      What worked for me:
      1.- Unistall the actual GFE
      2.-download version GFE 3.10.0.95 link
      3.- Go to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc and edit (with admin privileges) the file hosts
      just add at the end the line "127.0.0.1 services.gfe.nvidia.com #Block GFE Updates" whitout quotes this should block all updates redirecting the program to a non-exist server
      4.- install the GFE 3.10.0.95
      5.- once installed its time to do all the pair thing on recalbox
      Voila

      You are right I didn´t read your answer until now but I was making tests yesterday and I realize that the solutio is to block
      ota-downloads.nvidia.com as you say. Finally we have a solution 🙂
      @Substring maybe it could be a good idea to make a reference for this solution in recalbox documentation to warranty that everybody can still enjoy moonlight in spite of the new Geforce Experience version.

      If yo have problems pairing after this go to GFE end delete all shield devices, the run ./Moonlight.sh clean and after this pair again

        Now my problem is that games are not launched from moonlight, before this process with GFE 3.10.0.95 I run the games perfectly. Now I only see again a black screen. Anyone knows how to solve this?

          @Substring I have tried with GFE versions that previosuly works ok but now I still can´t launch games from moonlight.

          Pairing process seems to work correctly but in es_launch_stderr.log I get:
          You must pair with the PC first

          And in es_launch_stdout.log:

          /usr/bin/moonlight stream -config /recalbox/share/system/configs/moonlight/moonlight.conf -mapping /recalbox/share/system/configs/moonlight/mappingP2.conf -input /dev/input/event2 -mapping /recalbox/share/system/configs/moonlight/mappingP1.conf -input /dev/input/event3 -app FIFA 18
          Moonlight Embedded 2.2.2 (SDL;EMBEDDED;CEC;PI)
          Searching for server...
          Connect to 192.168.1.103...
          NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750, GFE 3.0.7.34 (protocol version 7)

          Any clue to solve my problem? Could have I deleted some necessary files into \recalbox\share\system\configs\moonlight?

              @substring I have run ./Moonlight.sh clean before run ./Moonlight.sh pair. Then it pairs correctly but I can´t launch the games and in es_launch_stderr.log I still get:
              You must pair with the PC first

                  @substring In moonlight.conf I edited this line at the top of the file:

                  address = 192.168.1.103

                  That ip is from my stream pc

                      @jor2404 Today I was also trying to solve the blackscreen problem. I did all steps described in this forum but without success. I use it for running Steam and after selecting Moonlight the Steam was executed on my PC automatically but at my Raspberry there was only black screen again.
                      Then I started following. I downloaded and installed latest fresh Recalbox image and did the Moonlight pairing with my computer. Everything was working at first try and games were running. But I do not wanted to configure whole Recalbox and Kodi again for the new SD card. So I made a backup of all files in /share/system/configs/recalbox/moonlight. Then I put back my old SD card deleted all files in share/system/configs/recalbox/moonlight and copied files from working card backup. After this step my old SD card started working and Moonlight is running games correctly.
                      One hint: When I tried to delete the files from card if was not possible using the shared folder. It was necessary to stop the emulation station and login as root directly at RPi computer.

                              @gimpi are your pi and GFE PC on the same subnetwork ? have you tried moonlight on your phone and see if it works ? Have you ever successfully streamed your games ? Is your GPU compatible with streaming ?

                                          @gimpi so that's a GFE configuration problem. Have you logged in an account in GFE ?
