I have ask the developer many times in the pass to add support for other resolutions but I keep getting a ignored response so please let him know that you would like to to see other resolutions support.

thank you and I apologize.

Do you consider adding sub-720p resolutions for phones that doesnt have 720p screen?

Sweet just want I needed. Thanks. Now to overclock my phone and see if I can improve on 28ms @ 1440p 60hz with 50mbit video rate.

Latest update breaks it for Gforce experince. Will have to try find way to downgrade.

GeForce_Experience_Beta_v3.0.2.205.exe Is the last version that supports custom res.
Installing it is a bit of a pain since it defaults to auto update to lastest beta when you install it. On my 200mbit net it pritty much instantly starts to update if you have the internet enabled.

So for me. I needed to go to programs and features.
Uninstall the latest beta.
Disable the internet.
Install "GeForce_Experience_Beta_v3.0.2.205"
Asks you to login,
Re-enable internet just for the login.
Then disable as soon as its logged in and asks to scan for games.
Let it do the scanning so you can get into the settings.
Un-tick Include beta and all driver update settings.
Close Gefore Experience. Turn internet back on and open gefore experience again and it should work with out trying to auto update.

Here is a link to "GeForce_Experience_Beta_v3.0.2.205"

i read somewhere that they are no longer refreshing the nvidia shield

 

[lateforwork1000]

looks like they are no more beta drivers but i did menage to get 3.0.5.22 to work well sometimes, the new Geforce experince drivers have support for other resolutions now what i did to get my targeted resolution to work is i go into moonlight change resolution to 1200x800 start my game(or windows) then go back to moonlight change to my targeted resolution. This sometimes work I do get this error 400 and 403 RTSP announcement request failure.

This would be very helpful for Google Cardboard type HMDs

Hi there, are you still actively working on the app? If you are, can you kindly add in custom resolutions for my note 8? Here they are:

1480*720
2220*1080
2960*1440

I sincerely appreciate it!

 

[lateforwork1000]

[lateforwork1000]

Hello,

I very much appreciate and welcome your efforts to add resolutions to Moonlight. My phone (ZTE Axon 7) is a 1440p phone so I was badly missing the 1440p resolution However...

...today I made few tests with 720p, 1080p, 1440p and 4k (obviously downscaled to my native phone resolution of 1440p) and got to an interesting observation: the 1440p actually equals (pretty much so) the 720p in image quality. The other 1080p and 4k work as expected - meaning qualitywise they improve.

Once you have a minute, could you please check what's up?

Thanks!
Regards,

Milan

Hi, I really appreciate your time and effort that you have made on Moonlight.

I recently got a Galaxy Tab S3, which has a 4:3 resolution screen. Is there anyway you can add a 1440x1080p so I can get rid of these black bars? I would be very thankful!

Thanks again for your consideration!

2048x1536 is the tab s3 native resolution

 

[pirathonite]

2048x1536 is the tab s3 native resolution

First of all, thank you for replying.

Yeah, I know. I am not positive that my computer can run well on some games at that higher resolution, so I was settling for at least a 4:3 1080p resolution. Does that make sense?

Could you possibility add both so I can test it out?

 

[lateforwork1000]

i see your issue but the better solution is to set moonlight to your tablet native resolution then run your desktop to your targeted resolution(1440x1080p), depending on the content you are looking at or game if it does not support 4:3 you will see black bars or worst screen stretching. All tho you are still better off just setting your desktop to your tablet native resolution and let your graphic drivers handle the rest, you can change the scaling in the drivers settings(fit to screen or stretch and others).

Ohh, I see. I made two custom resolutions via Nvidia's control panel and added 1440x1080 and 2048x1536. I did what you said and set the resolution at 1536p on Moonlight. After launching the game, I set the resolution in-game to 1440x1080 or 2048x1536 depending on the demand of the game. Everything is in fullscreen glory without the stretching.

Thank you for your help!
