      Hello Retrogamers ,
      Does exist a Web app server for Retropie which permit to play with rom games from a Web page ?
      I know that web interfaces exist to manage roms but not for playing directly.
      It could be great to play on Lan network from big screen computer for the handheld consoles.
      thanks

        Such a thing really wouldn't be possible. Input lag would be outrageous.

        Edit: While not a RetroPie solution, I believe you could pair a PC running emulators through Steam with a handheld client running something like Moonlight.

          Hello, thank you for your reply.
          i knew this but too heavy , it needs computer, nvidia graphic card (if i remember :)).
          In fact, i manufacture this on order : link on Retropie
          And it could be useful to play on big screen, because i don't have hdmi output.

              @mitu The hdmi output is already used by the screen, Inside.

                One option would be to drive the localscreen from the composite video and leave hdmi as an external option. This is what Pierre-Louis did for his RetroStone project.
