In-Home streaming now available on Steam
A new feature of Steam now released to all users
Valve has announced that In-Home Streaming, a new feature of Steam, is now released to all users.
Players who have multiple computers at home can immediately take advantage of the new feature. When you login to Steam on two computers on the same network, they automatically connect, allowing you to remotely install, launch, and play games as though you were sitting at the remote PC.
Steam In-Home Streaming allows users to play PC games on a lower-end computer, such as a laptop or home theater PC, or a computer running another operating system, such as Mac OS X, SteamOS, or Linux.
When you play a game using In-Home Streaming, video and audio are sent through your home network from your high-end gaming PC to another device in your home. From here, your keyboard, mouse, and controller input is sent back to the remote computer.
Steam knows whether your game is already running. Players can move to another device and start streaming your game right as you left it on the PC.
