Introduction
Welcome to Duo - your one-stop solution for easy, headless, Windows-based game streaming & multi-seating.
What does it do?
If you've ever operated a GeForce Experience GameStream or Sunshine host, you'll be painfully aware of what this entails:
- You can't use your computer while you're streaming from it.
- Your computer must always be connected to a monitor, HDMI dongle, or an indirect display driver for the stream to function.
- Streaming to different clients at varying resolutions, refresh rates, or color spaces requires several helper tools to enable, disable, or alter monitor configurations.
- Only one person can stream from a given computer at a given time.
Duo does away with all of these issues by giving each user their own independent Desktop, essentially allowing multiple people to play games on a single computer at the same time without getting in each other's way.
Downloads
- Allows you to run one additional remote session (in addition to the host's physical session)
- Supports refresh rates up to 30Hz
- Supports immediate display configuration changes (on Windows 11 23H2 or newer)
- Allows you to run as many remote sessions as your hardware can handle (in addition to the host's physical session)
- Supports refresh rates up to 500Hz (limited only by what your hardware encoder can handle)
- Supports immediate display configuration changes (on Windows 11 23H2 or newer)

Patreon versions can be upgraded with GitHub versions without losing their benefits, essentially making them a one-time $10 purchase if you want them to be.
