I searched for a solution to stream games from my gaming PC to my TV, and a Raspberry Pi seemed to tick most of the boxes. I used Steamlink app previously, but the app is being deactivated on Samsung TVs on the 30th of November 2023.
I purchased a RPi 4B, and installed the Sunshine server on the host PC. On the Pi, I installed Moonlight (on Debian 12, Bookworm). Things are running smoothly so far.
My question: How do I get Moonlight to run upon startup? I have auto log-in enabled. I also want Moonlight to run "Steamlink" immediately, if possible. Steamlink is added as a game/program in Moonlight - just easier to browse and add games for me.
What I have attempted is to add Moonlight as a service, and to add it to Autorun. When running it as a service (copy pasted stuff from the interwebs) my mouse on the Pi controls my Host PC mouse for some or the other reason. I tried adding it to the Autorun file, but nothing happened.
Can someone please assist? Kindly take note that my skill level with Linux, on a scale of 1 (worst) to 10 (best) is a 1. Therefore detailed instructions will be highly appreciated.
