Sound and controllers

Sound

The sound travels with the picture, as Opus, at about 130 kilobits a second.

What you share	What you hear
A window (a game)	That program's own sound.
A screen	Everything on the PC except the program's own voices: your Moymo calls and Discord are left out, so a friend does not hear themselves back on your television.

You can switch the sound off (the button on the Moymo Link card, or from your phone). It is on by default, and a muted PC sends silence, not a broken stream.

The picture and the sound are sent as two separate streams with the delay set to the minimum, so the television does not hold the picture back to match the sound. That keeps the response quick; the two stay in step for normal viewing.

Controllers

On the television

A controller connected to the television (a gamepad via USB or Bluetooth) is read by the television's browser as a standard gamepad, and its buttons are sent to the PC. A DualShock 4 works this way. On the PC, the buttons arrive through a virtual Xbox pad, so any game that supports an Xbox controller supports it.

That needs the ViGEmBus driver on the PC (the program offers to download it; it needs administrator rights once).

Hold Back and Start for a second and the controller becomes a mouse pointer: left stick moves it, buttons click. Hold them again to return to play mode. The television tells you which mode it is in.

Without the driver

Without ViGEmBus a controller can only move the pointer.

Keyboard and mouse

Moymo Link sends controllers, not a keyboard or a mouse. To type, use the pointer mode with the television's on-screen controls, or sit at the PC.
