Batocera v42 Proxmox Sunshine

Описание: 🎮 In this video, I’ll show you how to set up Sunshine game streaming inside Batocerav42, running on Proxmox via external SSD.

FYI — I used a second monitor attached directly to my GPU, connected to the Batocera VM, including mouse and keyboard passthrough for easier setup and testing.

🔧 Troubleshoot (Credits jd_27 for this fix)

if you encounter "Unable to find display or encoder during startup"

Do the following:
nano /userdata/system/services/sunshine and add export DISPLAY=:0 in the start_service() function def.
manually add the nvidia drivers into modules.

Prerequisites
GPU passthrough configured on Proxmox:
👉 https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/PCI_Passthrough

Moonlight app:
👉 moonlight-stream.org

This setup avoids the usual .img headaches and jumps straight to the good stuff — a fully working Batocera VM inside Proxmox.

You can create a virtual drive and attach it to the Batocera VM afterward. Once booted into Batocera (from an external USB or SSD), just use the “Install to another drive” option.
I personally keep Batocera on an external SSD for mobility and plug-and-play freedom. 😎
