3. Here you can see all of the different PCs you have paired to your SHIELD and their current status. Select
accessory settings
.
4. In the accessory settings menu you can select “Quality” to manually change the bitrate at which your stream is
delivered both from a Wi-Fi connection and from a wired Ethernet connection. You can also change the target
frame rate that the SHIELD will deliver. This provides a lot of flexibility to the power user in how they stream.
5. Also in the accessory settings menu is the "Optimize games" menu where you can manually disable OPS
(Optimal Playability Settings) for a particular game. This allows the user to disable the automatic settings we
apply to allow you to tailor specific in-game settings for each game. You can also globally disable or enable
OPS for a particular PC that you have paired to your SHIELD .
6. The GameStream menu also allows you to manually add a PC using the specific IP address of that particular
PC. This can be an address on your local network (LAN) or an external IP (WAN) address. On the GameStream
PCs menu you can click the “+” button to manually add a PC. Enter the IP address to search that address for a
GeForce PC. This will then add this PC to your GameStream PCs menu.
Tips and Tricks
•
We recommend launching your games at least once on the PC BEFORE launching through SHIELD to install
all of the prerequisites (VC Redists, DirectX ect..) and set up all DRM features (Games For Windows Live,
SocialClub etc…).
• If you do not see your PC on the server list on your SHIELD, or cannot connect to your PC from SHIELD :
Verify that both SHIELD and the PC are connected to the same Wi-Fi router
Be sure the latest GeForce Experience software is loaded and running on the PC.
Verify that your PC meets the system requirements using the My Rig tab in GeForce Experience
Try manually adding your PC via IP address (refer to Advanced Settings)
• If you do not see a pairing request pop-up:
In GeForce Experience, press the Forget all devices button in the Preferences > GameStream tab
• If any of the above steps do not work, trying rebooting the SHIELD and the PC.
