I want to access my pc / steamdeck from laptop. All 3 devices have different aspect ratio screens. Is there a way to use steam link with guest (laptop in this case) aspect ratio? Or is there any other solution than steam link?

[EDIT]: I don’t game as much, I’m mostly accessing PC / deck (in desktop mode) from laptop. When I’m playing game I generally use actual device.

[EDIT2]: Decided to go with sunshine - moonlight, seems to do everything I was looking for.

    best way I’ve seen is to set your game to Windowed mode, and then in game set the resolution of the game to run at the client’s. Not super if you frequently move around, but if you always play one game from one client, at least it’s always a “per game” setting.

    If you want a real challenge and want to have it a very specific way… a very fun nerd project is setting up VMs with GPUs that can run Steam, and those can always have a specific resolution. I did that for a while, it was a ton of fun, and a ton of wasted time because I just wanted to do it

      actually I should have mentioned this (adding to OP as well): most of the time I’m not playing game, just using laptop as a way to access PC / Deck (in desktop mode)
