Limelight PC v0.5.4 (Beta)

Choose a tag to compare
Pre-release

Please report any broken functionality.

Use Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Q to quit the stream. Pressing Ctrl+Alt+Shift toggles mouse capture in the streaming window.

If you've started a stream from another device, you will probably have to terminate it manually on the PC or end it from the device you started it with before you can start a new one to a different device.

If you're running 64-bit Windows, you'll want to get the JAR that corresponds to the architecture of the JRE you're running which might not match architecture of your Windows installation. I'd suggest trying the win32 version unless you explicitly remember installing a 64-bit JRE. An error message will appear telling you the proper JAR to download if you pick the wrong one.

Users running Windows XP must install the DirectX End-User Runtime before running Limelight. It can be found at http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35

Changes:

  • Add support for GFE 2.1.1
  • GFE 2.1.1 is now required for streaming with this version

For those running Windows Defender or Microsoft Security Essentials, some recent virus definitions falsely detect some included DLLs. Updating your virus definitions should resolve this issue.
