Homebrew RELEASE Chiaki (PS5 & PS4 remote play) homebrew

Waking up the ps4 is working sweet for me atm. This is pretty great. Would getting 60fps ever be possible on a non-pro ps4 as this app develops? Or is it the actual ps4 that limits that from happening?

Weird, waking up does nothing for me. I'm using the latest GUI build as well.

Edit: Actually I realized that I had wake up from Lan disabled in the settings menu. But, I don't want to turn that off because if I do I run the risk of getting online updates when the console goes to sleep, right?

It seems that with the newest version with GUI the picture will freeze? Never had the problem before and it seems the only solution is to close the game and reopen

Automatic updates - Off.
Turn on by network - On.

Hasn't caused me any issues. Even if for some odd reason the update was downloaded it could just be removed anyway.

Yeah I'm just concerned because the guide for PS4 says to turn off the option that has the suboption of turn on by network.

Is it possible to simulate a touchpad press from a Nintendo switch pro controller with a button combination? That would be perfect for docked gameplay.

hello that's a difficult question.
it's almost impossible to have a consensus on this request.

Pad keys (if not pressed at the exact same frame) are active in game.
and depending on the game, using combinations may trigger harmful event.
let me know if you have any suggestion ?

yeah, it works really well ! (tried Persona5Royal on ps4pro)
thanks a lot for this new version (page 13)

tbh, I had some graphical bugs at 540@30, then tried 540@60, 720@30, 720@60(thank you for the GUI, I got a lot faster to test those compared to the non-GUI version, obviously^^), it got worse and worse, wasn't completely unplayable at 720@60, but not really enjoyable with so much graphical issues...then I held L+DP-Down+RS for the overclocking overlay and just went with everything maxed out lol, and suddenly, everthing looked perfect ! (can anyone share their exact OC settings ? maxed out is surely overkill)

Wake up with Y did work for me too btw !

thanks again for this ^^

Hello,
It should work in 720p+60fps (for all ps4 versions) without any overclock. (the ps4pro is only for 1080p)
@Azel do you have the same issue from the Homebrew channel in app mode ?

That makes sense; The only button that doesn't seem to be used is the share/capture button below the D-Pad. Is it possible to have this button be used for touch-pad simulation, or some sort of key-combination (like RL + share button)?

Also, please let me know if you have a ko-fi or patreon. I wouldn't mind kicking in some funds for your development time & efforts!

Changing this setting on my PS4 has made the wake function (Y) work for me as well, thanks for the tip!

I take a good note of it,
I do not know if the share button can be captured at this moment.
But I will take a look.

I have no ko-ki nor patreon. If you want, you may express your gratitude to thestr4ng3r the main developer of chiaki.
https://github.com/thestr4ng3r/chiaki#acknowledgements
also the devkitpro, switchbrew, Atmosphère teams and all homebrew devs !
Without them that kind of project would not be possible.

Thank you all for your support

Anyway to exit back into the main menu of Chiaki? the newest version seems to randomly disconnect in like 20 minute intervals

 

[Deleted User]

Tried out the new GUI and it looks great but how to exit back to the homebrew menu? I couldn't find a working key combination.

This doesn't happen to me.. could be wifi drops on your switch? The only time the app freezes on me is when i have a drop in wifi connectivity.

No it’s not my WiFi dropping, there’s no way. Like I said this would never happen before on the older version.

 

[Legend Of Kay]

Mine drops out occasionally but did so on both versions. Definitely not frequently. Maybe once every 4th time I use the app maybe.

hello isiikz
the forwarder is no longer required.
feel free to send me your nxlink logs in a private message if needed (if you have one)

nxlink -a X.X.X.X -s ./chiaki.nro

where X.X.X.X is your nintendo switch IP

hello,
currently there is no way to exit from the app.
all available switch's button are forwarded to the ps4.
Only the home button remains for the switch.
(I would like to keep key combination as a last resort)
the home button should do the trick to leave the pas.
but you have to reload the homebrew channel unfortunately

Hello dantes_victus,
currently this feature is not implemented yet in the upstream library.
https://github.com/thestr4ng3r/chia...1f08b3af18c41351e50016176f/README.md#features
I will take a look to see if a quick win is possible.

 

[dantes_victus]

Just adding some further comments after some further use of this app.

I am occasionally experiencing freezes after and hour or so of gameplay. It seems impossible to reconnect to my PS4 when this happens and also causes some issues PS4 side when this happens. After it freezes I can continue gameplay on my PS4 but when I try to close the game the PS4 just freezes and eventually leads to kernel panic. Not sure if that's a problem exclusive to 6.72 and the unstable nature of the exploit?

Also found a bit of an issue with the touchpad/screen. I tried to play Erica but couldn't progress. There's a scene that require you to clear fog from a mirror using the touchpad. When using the touchscreen the right hand side is unreachable. There was a straight line drawn in the fog about a third of the way in from the right.

Happy to provide further info on any of those if it's any use? I'm just a user not a dev so apologies for the layman's terms.
