NoMachine Player ou Parsec : une bonne alternative sous Linux ?

NoMachine Player, alternative Linux à Parsec

Mis à jour le 26 octobre 2026

Notre avis

NoMachine Player is a solid alternative to Parsec for remote desktop access with low latency, especially on Linux, but it's not ideal for gaming. It handles desktop streaming, audio, and input well over local networks, but doesn't prioritize frame rates above 60 FPS or peer-to-peer simplicity the way Parsec does. Gamers and streamers seeking maximum responsiveness will notice the difference. However, for remote work, administration, or general desktop access across platforms, NoMachine Player delivers reliably and securely, making it a strong choice for power users who value functionality over raw speed.

Ce qui change

NoMachine is optimized for desktop usability, not gaming — lacks Parsec’s 144+ FPS support

Connection setup is more complex compared to Parsec’s direct P2P
No native support for public hosting or remote discovery like Parsec
Higher CPU overhead during high-resolution streaming

Ouvrir vos fichiers Parsec

NoMachine Player does not use or open Parsec-specific files, and there is no file interchange between the two. Both are connection tools, not document editors, so no user files (like sessions or recordings) are shared or convertible. Any remote desktop session state or saved connections are stored in their respective apps and are not portable between Parsec and NoMachine.

Does NoMachine Player support gamepad input?

NoMachine does not natively forward gamepad input. You may need to use third-party tools or USB redirection, which adds complexity. Parsec handles gamepads plug-and-play.
