      Hi,

      I compared the différence between my phone using SteamLink under Android OS (wifi connexion) and my Raspberry Pi4 using SteamLink under RetroPie OS (RJ45 WIRED to router directly).

      SteamLink configuration : inner résolution 1080x1200px
      Image quality :low
      Direct connexion : enabled

      The Raspberry PI4 got latency while getting streamed images. But when i click on the contrôller, réaction IS instant on the main screen(streaming machine).

      On Android device. It's really smooth.
      IS it due to hardware? Or maybe i Can Do some better configuration under RetroPie ?

      mess with the best, die like the rest

        Got it :

        Enabling HEVC option under STEAMLINK parameters will drastically reduce lags! :D

        I CAN play steamlink now with a really good gaming experience.
