I guess what problems are you having? I've used steam link before perfectly fine but it's going to have some loss over the network. Are both computers connected to a gigabit lan? Balder's gate 3 is a newer game, and while you aren't on minimum requirements you are on mid tier hardware using proton to run a windows game, so there are a few reasons you may be having problems. Best way to run it down is isolate things and see how they go. Try running game directly on the computer with monitor ect.
It appears as if you misunderstood my post...
I currently DONT have gamestreaming from my Ubuntu Server to the minisforum. I WANT to have it but i don't know how to properly set it up. I tried several installs of sunshine but it fails everytime on encoders... and the docker support is very manual at the moment.
The performance issues i have on BG3 are running directly on the minisforum thats why i want to run it on the server instead.
So basically my post is asking for help on setting up sunshine on my ubuntu server
If you're using Sunshine on an nvidia system, you'll have to patch your nvidia driver to be able to use nvenc and nvfbc without restriction. Check out this repo for more info: https://github.com/keylase/nvidia-patch
What would my advantages be here after using the patches?
I plan to only connect one single client to my host at any given moment. So i don't think i need the restrictions lifted i guess?
Iirc sunshine still need nvfbc to grab the rendered frames.

Got it, thanks!
Ah I don't know much about sunshine and your specific setup. But I know docker can be a pain getting access to devices like graphics cards. Maybe try running natively?
I've got my GPU running in docker when i wanted to use hw transcoding on my Plex docker. So this is already cleared.
I've researched a bit since posting and found that using sunshine directly is not the easiest route to pick here since their docker installation is still in early development and involves a lot of manual config and setup.
I'll go with https://games-on-whales.github.io/gow/running.html as they use sunshine but deliver a nearly completely configured docker-compose environment.
I ordered a HDMI dummy plug that i can use.
