Samsung Tizen Moonlight with HDR and 120FPS setup - Mini Guide
152Unleash Game Streaming on Your Tizen TV with Open-Source Magic!
Prescript:
Forgot to highlight in the video, this method does not enhance your FPS, it will only allow the software to reach 120FPS if your TV supports it.
As noted in the description of our previous video https://youtu.be/GBOoyw8euaw, if you are using the same TV as us (S95C), the smoothest setting for 4k is currently 60FPS.

First of all, a big shout-out to the incredible developers behind Moonlight, Sunshine, and Moonlight for Tizen! Their dedication to open-source software fuels awesome experiences like this guide.
For this specific setup, we've leveraged amazing work by OneLiberty (https://github.com/OneLiberty/moonlight-chrome-tizen) and glink00 (https://github.com/KyroFrCode/moonlight-chrome-tizen/pull/9), building upon their Moonlight Tizen versions to tailor the solution for our needs.
Ready to cut the cord and enjoy high-performance PC games directly on your Samsung Tizen TV? This guide uses the power of open-source software to make it happen.
The setup process involves building the source code using the Tizen SDK and then deploying the resulting package to the TV via the network.
Before we begin, please ensure:
You have a PC capable of game streaming (consider its processing power and graphics capabilities).
Your OS is Windows (Mac and Linux users can follow similar steps with adjustments).
Docker CLI is installed, we use Rancher Desktop: https://github.com/rancher-sandbox/rancher-desktop/releases
Git is installed https://git-scm.com/downloads
Your Sunshine host is up and running.
Your Samsung Tizen TV has developer mode.
Download and install the tools above. Restart your PC if needed.
Verify installations: Open a command prompt and type
git version
wsl --version
docker --version
Find your TV's IP address (YOUR_TV_IP_ADDRESS): Navigate to Settings - Connection - Network - Network Status - IP Settings.
Enable developer mode on your TV: Go to the Apps panel. Press 12345 on the remote/keyboard and a dialog should popup. Set the Host PC IP to your build PC's IP.
Build and deploy the app:
Choose a directory (e.g., c:\).
Open a command prompt in the chosen directory.
Execute the following commands, one at a time if needed:
mkdir tpg
cd tpg
git clone https://github.com/toypoodlegaming/moonlight-chrome-tizen.git
cd moonlight-chrome-tizen
docker build -t moonlight-tizen .
docker run -it --rm moonlight-tizen
sdb connect YOUR_TV_IP_ADDRESS
sdb devices
tizen install -n Moonlight.wgt -t YOUR_DEVICE_ID
exit
Notes:
The initial build might take a while
Remember to replace YOUR_TV_IP_ADDRESS with your actual IP and YOUR_DEVICE_ID
YOUR_DEVICE_ID is an output of the sdb devices command above
Once Moonlight has been installed:
Launch the Moonlight app on your TV from the apps panel.
Enter your Sunshine host's IP address.
Pair your Moonlight instance with the Sunshine host.
Adjust Moonlight client settings in the app.
Start streaming!
