Is there a way from Steam on my desktop to queue games for install on my Deck the next time I power it on? Something like what Google does with the web version of the play store.

I’m guessing not, at least out of the box, from what I’ve found searching. But I didn’t know if there was a mod/addon/etc… out there that could make it work. (i.e. add games to a collection called “Installed On Deck” and the deck automatically adds them.)

I would be happy enough if the thing would download stuff when the screen is turned off…

my workaround is to put it in the official dock, but let the tv turned off or change the channel. this results in the deck internal screen turned off
