Description

Free Download

Streamer Linux Player is an application that will let you play any PC game through a PlayStation 3 with Linux installed on it.

The StreamMyGame Server converts the game's video and audio into a Game Stream and sends it over a local network to another computer, thus allowing the latter to view and play the game with the StreamMyGame Player. I've almost forgot to mention that both the Server and Client solutions are free, so you won't have to pay anything for them. The machine running the Client app can be a PC, PS3, laptop or Linux device, and it does not need to have the game installed on it. Also, the second computer will not experience any lag at all.

The StreamMyGame Player can support resolutions up to Super HDTV 3200 x 2400 on your Linux box. The compatible Linux distributions recommended for PlayStation 3 are Ubuntu and Yellow Dog Linux.

1) Download an Save to Disc the Streamer Linux Player Installer onto your Linux PC.

3) You must go to the directory where you downloaded the file by typing into the Terminal for example;

5) Read the README carefully especially about configuring the firewall (see note below)

6) Use the arrows keys to scroll the page, now press q to quit the README.

7) After the installer finishes we need to associate the Streamer Player with the files on our website by opening a Terminal and typing;

For Ubuntu choose the GNOME option. (The KDE option is currently untested but should work.)

8) Browse to the SMG website using Firefox and select a game.

9) The Linux Player will open. Enter your StreamMyGame website username and password.

10) The Linux Player will connect to your Windows PC and start the game and display it on Linux.

Note on Resolution

Ubuntu may not display full screen on your TV / LCD and will have a black boarder around it. It will display at 1124 x 644 so you cant open a 720p game stream unless you change its resolution. We will release a new page in January about how to change this and display Ubuntu at 720p and 1080i.
