Steam in-house remote play (link) (feddit.ch)

Hi all, I've been thinking about setting things up so I can play Steam games on my TV but I'm a little confused on the setup. So here's what I was planning:

main laptop in office will stream the game
TV in living room connected to Nvida shield
Nvidia shield runs Steam Link to connect to laptop
Controllers connect to Nvidia shield??

I think the main thing that confuses me is if I can connect my controllers to the Nvidia shield or do they need to connect to the laptop?

Anyone have a similar setup that works?

This is pretty similar to my setup except for using a Valve Steam Link over the nVidia Shield. PS5 controllers connected to Steam Link. Steam Link connects to my desktop (over lan, previously PoE worked well). It works quite well overall. A small number of games seem to have issues with being streamed, but they're pretty few and far between.
