This is a nightly release of Moonlight and contains several bug fixes and may contain new features. Check the commit log for more information.
Moonlight builds are unsigned and may show an unverified publisher. macOS builds are not Developer ID signed or notarized. These nightly builds may trigger security warnings or false-positive antivirus alerts.
Windows, Mac and AppImage users of 6.1.0-daily.182 or earlier must download this update manually once; automatic nightly update notifications work after upgrading.
SHA256 checksums
Intel NT-handle interoperability was probed on UHD 770; Arc B390 end-to-end playback remains unverified. Steam Deck native Wayland and GPU hold were verified; optical HDR/VRR output remains unverified.
Linux installation
Download either Linux x86_64 package below. For Flatpak, install Flatpak through your distribution's software manager first, then run:
flatpak remote-add --user --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
flatpak install --user --reinstall ./Moonlight-6.2.0-daily.184-x86_64.flatpak
flatpak run --user com.moonlight_stream.Moonlight//master
This nightly uses the master branch; the regular Flathub package uses stable. To update a Flatpak nightly, repeat the install command with the newer downloaded bundle. On Steam Deck, install in Desktop Mode and add this nightly branch to Steam.
For AppImage:
chmod +x ./Moonlight-6.2.0-daily.184-x86_64.AppImage
./Moonlight-6.2.0-daily.184-x86_64.AppImage
If your distribution lacks FUSE support, launch the AppImage with --appimage-extract-and-run.
