where Steam In-home streaming just works. Mind you, this is the same PC, same Shield TV, same network etc. Apparently there is some "auto discover" setting somewhere but if it actually exists, AMD certainly didn't but it in any place you expect it to be like maybe the AMD link or ReLive game streaming menu. Turned off Windows firewall and everything. No matter what you do, it won't find your PC.
