Steam Machines are available here in my area. Instead, I repurposed a small form factor machine I already had that was much more powerful anyways that has a built in graphics card. At the time I purchased it a few years ago, it was about $1000CDN, the Minisforum Neptune HX99G.

On the Dispatcharr Discord, you can find a tool there that has helped me a lot: Smart Hardware-Accelerated Stream Re-Encoder - https://discord.com/channels/1340492560220684331/1460027497377698076

You're asking in the wrong place.

You don't need to do anything to "turn your physical game into a digital one", because the same package you deliver for a physical game to 1st parties are used the same way for digital downloads.
