Been doing quite a bit of in-home streaming from PC to Steam Deck lately, and decided to give Chiaki4Deck a try for PS5 to Steam Deck in-home streaming. Works like a charm; great graphics (including HDR), touchpad and haptics support, and QoL stuff like sleeping your PS5 when exiting the Steam Deck’s stream session.

Here is the guide I used: https://streetpea.github.io/chiaki4deck/setup/configuration/

My PS5 is wired, and my SD is the only device on the 6GHz WiFi I have up. So, imperceptible! I can count a handful of times I noticed input lag or stutter, that’s it. It’s basically cloud gaming, but sitting upstairs from the server.

I would also say imperceptible. The 2 critiques I have are that the audio can sound compressed through headphones, and there’s sometimes a spike in lag that happens around 20m in during some sessions. If I just disconnect and reconnect without putting the PS5 to sleep (usually a <10s process), it never happens again during even long sessions.

What game are you running? It looks intriguing but I can't place it for the life of me

It's Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth.

[–] Ecksell@lemmy.one 3 points 8 months ago

Thats Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth!

Looks like the Final Fantasy 7 remake.

[–] MajinBlayze@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

Maybe it's the sequel to that which came out a week ago

Chiaki has legit been about 90% of my steam deck time. Anything newer or already in my PS+ collection I just stream. My deck is just for retro games and PC/Xbox gems that are playable on the system.

I had no idea this even existed. I'm about to embark on the perilous road of pissing off my wife because now I'll be playing PS5 games in the bedroom.

Pray for my safety 😜

Good luck mate!

I just set this up a few nights ago. It's been really nice!
