SkyNX

A replacement for the abandoned In-Home-Switching. If you are not sure what that is, well, it is an app that allows you to stream your PC games to your Nintendo Switch! Kind of like moonlight. It is not at all entirely ready, and if there were a way to do hardware decoding on switch it would be a lot better. But for now It is definitely, definitely playable.

Downloads are here

The desktop streaming client is completely new. Currently the audio is a little buggy but it runs well!

The Switch app however has it's roots in the original In-Home-Switching app.

SkyNX Streamer

Instructions:

(Optional) Install Screen Capture Recorder to have audio.

  1. Set desktop and game resolution to 1280 X 720.
  2. Open SkyNXStreamer-win32-x64/SkyNXStreamer.exe
  3. Launch SkyNX on switch.
  4. Put the IP showed on the app into the streamer.
  5. Select a streaming quality.
  6. Click start streamer.

Notes:

When the streamer connects it will try to connect the switch as a virtual xBox controller. If the driver is not installed, It will install it automatically at this point.

If for some reason it keeps prompting to install, or the controllers don't work. Try the following steps.

  1. Restart windows, and launch it again.
  2. If it still is not working. And you have previously used In-Home-Switching, Try removing the ScpDriverInterface that In-Home-Switching installs. You can use the installer that came with it to uninstall it, or get it Here.

Todo:

  • Finish rewrite of App UI.

Known issues

  • So far Switch crashes when put to sleep with app running (please close app beforehand, we have not fixed this issue yet)
  • App breaks when Switch changes from docked to handheld mode or vice-versa. Please quit the app before doing so.
  • Buggy audio.
  • Audio is choppy.
