up.
Now there is no way to do alt+tab, and restarting the game is often too long.

sometimes exit to menu can solve problem (bitrate dropdown to 1-2k and alttab working fine), but not all games have free saves.

I think that's a good idea too. Because there are times when the whole point is just changing from one computer/area to another and having to leave the stream up when returning to the host computer just handcuffs you.

To close the stream just press "Stream" on the game you are currently playing.

in game library? impossible, if you can't alttab.

On the streaming/receiving PC you can alt-tab and then just press "stream" again. It will terminate the streaming process running and leave the game on host computer running.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

Steam system tray menu on the host also has a 'Stop Streaming' option when it's streaming. You can use that when you get back on the host.

Great tip! Combine this with Ctrl+Shift+Esc to be able to access the tray, and you can do it from the remote PC.

Sorry for necroposting but this is the first result in google for "steam stop in house streaming" and I just want to say in case you missed the 2 second long hint when starting the stream, you can hold escape and you get the streaming menu (or the xbox button when using an xbox controller) where you get the options to disconnect for the stream (keeping the game going), stopping the game (and the stream) all together and sound controls

In case any one finds this. If you are using KBM hold escape and it should bring up a menu. You should see sliders for Volume and Mic, and options for ending stream or game and stream.

on link hardware you can bind a controller combo to bring up the link osd menu while streaming
has volume/mic sliders and stop streaming
ex. start+select or guide + button
