MoonlightWeb v0.1.1 — polish & reliability

A follow-up to the first public release, focused on smoother streaming, fewer crashes, a third language and a handful of quality-of-life touches. MoonlightWeb streams your Sunshine gaming PC to any device with a browser — you still install one app on the gaming PC only; every other device just opens a URL.

What's new

  • 简体中文 — the interface is now available in English, French and Simplified Chinese, and the website gets a language dropdown.
  • Clipboard sync — copy text on one side and paste it on the other; the clipboard follows you between the browser and the host desktop.
  • Clearer host status — a machine that's powered on but not yet running MoonlightWeb now shows as "Unavailable" instead of "Offline" with a pointless Wake button, so you know to start the app rather than wake a PC that's already up.
  • "Are you sure?" when streaming your own PC — a friendly heads-up (with the URL to open from another device) before you stream the very machine you're sitting at.
  • Quicker access to Sunshine — the admin page now links straight to Sunshine's own web configuration, and pairing during install is optional (leave the credentials blank to pair later).
  • Cleaner desktop integration — a single "MoonlightWeb" shortcut that launches the app and lands on the admin page, with single-tab de-duplication so you don't end up with the page open twice.

Streaming & stability

  • Rock-solid transport pick — the WebRTC media-track path now always encodes H.264, fixing streams that could fail to start when HEVC/AV1 was selected.
  • Fewer hiccups on flaky networks — transient connection and app-list failures are retried silently instead of surfacing an error.
  • Smoother on macOS — App Nap is suppressed during a session (no more periodic stutter), and Sunshine's running state is detected reliably.
  • No more double cursor when the stream window regains focus, and live stats reliably reach the browser.
  • Crash hardening — several use-after-free fixes, plus a crash minidump and archived debug symbols so any remaining crash can be diagnosed.

Packaging

  • Release assets are now version-stamped (e.g. …-0.1.1-…) so you can tell builds apart at a glance.
  • macOS .pkg now sets the right ownership on first install.
