ArturkA Posted August 26, 2018 Report Posted August 26, 2018 What is needed and how can a "auth secret" be used that is returned by the "getAuthSecret" method.And what does "pre-shared key" mean? Quote
Dr. McKay Posted August 26, 2018 Report Posted August 26, 2018 When using Steam in-home streaming, network communication is encrypted with the auth secret. It's called a pre-shared key because it's an encryption key that is shared with both parties (in this instance, the machine the games are getting streamed from and the machine they're getting played on) by Steam, before the in-home connection is established.
