steamlink support? #47

Check out Valve's Steam Link app for Android. It would be cool to see the functionality offered by that app rolled into moonlight. What are the chances the moonlight client can be extended to not only connect to nvidia gamestream servers but also to computers set up to stream games via Steam's built-in game streaming functionality?

The ability exists but instead you need to setup route UPNP. I just set it up, but supposedly UPNP is a security risk. The way steam is able to do things is because they have server in between your remote device and the host. And that server is able to translate IP addresses, where as moonlight has no servers since its all open source.

It would be a cool idea, but require money to keep servers running.
