Comment on Steam Deck gets a new low-power screen-off downloads mode

I want a screen off mode period. There have been times I’d like to stream a game using the deck to control but have the video on a TV or monitor. Just make turning the brightness all the way down turn the screen off. I’m a bit surprised I have to wish for that.

I dock my deck sometimes. In desktop mode you can turn off the deck’s display and only use the external. Not sure if this helps.

  Maybe there’s a way to use a long cord to achieve what I want in docked mode. But, no, what I’m saying is I want to be able to use the deck as a controller with the screen off basically.
