使用Node.js进行视频游戏流

Question

I'd like to develop a streaming videogame application. Sort of what you can do with Nvidia SHIELD: stream games from a powerful PC to any web browser.

I'm just wondering if there would be any chance to accomplish that using node.js (I just know the basics of it). So that I could run a game in my desktop gaming pc and I can catch the controller events and watch the stream of the gameplay at the web browser of my old laptop.

Thanks.

In theory this could be accomplished using something like this though I doubt that you will get good enough performance to play any games well with it.

The Nvidia Shield uses the GPU to transcode the current videostream to h264 for sending it efficiently over the network, you won't get that kind of support within a node.js application.
