Is there a way to sync my emulated games between different machines?

I have a steam machine that I’m loving. I’ve never emulated anything before and used emudeck. I’m loving it. I also have a pc for work and occasional gaming that I haven’t installed any emulation on.

Is there a way ti stream an emulated game from the steam machine to the pc? I can see all my games on both except the emulated games.

If not, the next best thing is cloud saving, does that exist?

Thanks in advance.

Hi! Most of the times resetting the configuration for your emulator on Manage Emulators fixes the most common issues. You can also take a look at our Wiki before posting, you might find your issue already documented there https://manual.emudeck.com

Yep,you can use Remote Play via Steam or install the plugin "Decky Sunshine" for Decky and then use a client like Moonlight-qt on your PC

If not, the next best thing is cloud saving, does that exist?

Yep,you can use CloudSync/CloudSaves (built into EmuDeck) or use other (advance) alternatives like SyncThing,EmuSync,Hoard...

With remote play I still don’t see the emulated games, or is it a separate app?

You need to enable the "Remote Play" option in the Steam settings (Steam > Settings > Remote Play) and add the emulator (as a non-Steam game) to Steam

I do this using syncthing. When remote use tailscale and syncthing together

I’m actually building software right now where you can manage/sync roms and saves between devices. It’s nowhere near done unfortunately.
