The beta version of the app had some issues with the Steam controller PCGamer’s Wes Fenlon has tried out the Steam Link app with Samsung TVs, finding it to be fairly impressive for a beta app.įenlon says he was able to stream his games in 1080p and at 60fps, though he notes some reports on the Steam forums indicate other users have had a more difficult time with the app.īeware, however, as it seems the app experienced some trouble working fully with a Steam Controller, while the Xbox wireless controller reportedly performed well. What’s more, the app is said to work on all 20 4K Samsung TVs, so even those who have already bought a 4K set in the last year should be able to make use of the new functionality. Now, Samsung has finally added a beta version of Valve’s Steam Link app to its official app store, allowing gamers to stream their PC games to their TV through a local network. The news was announced at the Steam Dev Days conference back in October 2016, and meant those who bought one of Sammy’s new TVs would be able to stream their gaming exploits without having to buy the actual Steam Link box. I do have to ask though: Do you know if it's possible to access the Beta build for the Steam Link on the Samsung TV app? I used to have a physical Steam Link that I replaced with the TV when I got it, but the options on the TV app seem fairly limited compared to the physical device.Last year we heard Samsung would be integrating Steam technology into its smart TVs to allow users to stream PC games to the sets. Doesn't really seem worth my time to pick up a Rasberry Pi when my TV basically does everything I need it to outside of support the controller I want to use most. Maybe I'll just pick up an Xbox One controller just to make it work. If DualSense doesn't work with the Steam Link app quite yet, then there's nothing I can really do about it. I KNOW that it works with Steam just fine, as I'm able to directly connect to my computer, Blueooth or no, to Steam and use it just fine in both desktop and Big Picture mode.
It sounds to me like DualSense just isn't quite supported yet, which is a shame.
My TV itself is a 2020 model of the UHD 4K Samsung TV, so it shouldn't be an age issue. I've checked both my TV firmware and the Steam Link app version, but both haven't been updated since the end of 2020. Well, I play on my PS5 incredibly frequently, so I don't think controller firmware is an issue.
