Steamlink Launcher for OSMC

Installation | Want to contribute | Acknowledgement | Credits | Donator | Got issues | License | Links

This launcher is exclusively designed for the Open Source Media Center (OSMC). It facilitates the installation of two scripts that operate and manage Steamlink. Please note that this is still in beta testing, so any performance-related issues should be reported directly to Valve. While I'm here to address issues related to the launcher, I won't be able to assist with performance problems - these should be directed to Valve.

Installation

  1. Download the zip file of the launcher and install it using Kodi.
  2. The add-on will automatically install Steamlink. If wakeuponlan is installed, it is also supported. To use it, create a file in the home directory named .wakeup and add your MAC ID using the command nano /home/osmc/.wakeup.

NOTE: Please note that this add-on requires Kodi version 19 to be installed as it uses Python 3.

Want to contribute

Make sure to lint your code so its proper then submit it via PR here on the tracker.

Got issues

  • If you encounter a bug associated with the launcher, please submit an issue.
  • If you experience problems related to OSMC, such as the Pi crashing or issues with overlays, initiate a discussion on the OSMC Forums.
  • If Steamlink starts but you’re facing difficulties, seek support on the Steam Forums.

To minimize clutter on the issue tracker with OSMC-related issues, please remember that this launcher primarily initiates Steamlink and has minimal interaction with the operating system. When reporting a bug, it's crucial to include logs. You can obtain these via the command line using grab-logs -A. If you find that these fixes are outdated but everything is functioning correctly, please provide an update on the issue tracker.

Known Workarounds:

  • if you get a black stream from your Steam host, you need dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d,cma-512 instead of dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d in config.txt this workaround is for Raspberry Pi 4 (only)
