How well does the raspberry pi handle being a moonlight client - eviltoast

I’m thinking about moving my PC out to the living room and streaming back to my office when I need to. I’ve used a number of moonlight clients with mixed results.

Apple TV and Xbox Series X, terrible with massive lag.

Android with Nvidia shield pro or Chromecast with Google TV, not bad but not amazing,

MacOS client on MacBook pro and Google pixel 6 pro over wifi 6, perfect feels like it’s on the same machine.

Before I go through all the effort of setting up the Raspberry Pi 4 just wondering if anyone has any first hand experience on the quality of the stream

    I can’t speak on moonlight specifically on the pi 4, but it running steamlink on wasn’t bad on it, so I can’t imagine it’s would be any worse than that for moonlight.

    Wired Nvidia shield TV has been my best experience when it comes to both moonlight and steam link out of all of the devices I’ve tried it with.
