AutoGame VS gamestream_launchpad

check out auto game https://github.com/jarrettgilliam/AutoGame

I ended up using an app called AutoGame and choose option to launch Playnite everytime a game controller is connected (which what happened when you connect via Moonlight).

There is also "AutoGame" https://github.com/jarrettgilliam/AutoGame/releases. When a parsec connection is made or a controller is detected, it can be configured to launch Playnite Fullscreen or steam big picture mode. Sunshine is also a good alternative if you want to keep using moonlight.

I use Playnite and some software I wrote to automatically start it up when I connect.

I don't have much to add, except that if you play on more than one device, adding gamestream launchpad commands for Playnite to sunshine as programs can also give you easy access to custom resolutions and all your games if you also play on devices like a Steam Deck (720p), ROG Ally(1080p), or an iPad (weird 1600p).

You can also use Gamestream Launchpad which is great for this!

Have you heard of Gamestream Launchpad? It does this through GOG or Playnite.

I found thia project on GitHub which forces your PC to your desired solution. https://github.com/cgarst/gamestream_launchpad It works extreme robust and works all the time

I found a happy accident with the game stream launchpad:https://github.com/cgarst/gamestream_launchpad

I'm using a program called Gamestream Launchpad (GSLP) to open playnite from the moonlight client on steam deck. But I'm having an issue where when GSLP (which launches as a cmd window) launches playnite its somehow causing playnite to look for the library in the appdata folder (which doesn't exist) so it builds one and resets the library. I use a portable installation so the library folder and all the configs are in the directory of playnite already.

Apparently, I was moving too quickly and thought you were using GameStream Launchpad as I am, which is why my paths include it.
