Currently there are versions of Android that run on x86 tablets, like the surface lineup or the asus vivobook slatebook but moonlight dont work on them, because can't find hardware accelerated codecs.

Are these officially supported with Android or is this custom ROMs that people are making for these?

Please run CodecInfo on the device and attach screenshots of the available H.264 codecs.

Moonlight is fully compatible with x86 devices, both ChromeOS, Windows Subsystem for Android, and the official Android emulator. It does enforce hardware-accelerated video decoding though, which may not be supported for unofficial Android ports.

BlissOS uses FFMPEG codecs (https://github.com/goffioul/external-stagefright-plugins) for hardware-accelerated decoder already. To enable FFMPEG codecs, either choose OMX (boot with FFMPEG_OMX_CODEC=1) or Codec2 (boot with FFMPEG_CODEC2_PREFER=1)

Codec2 is recommended
