Sony’s own PS Remote Play app has always been garbage. Even on PC, on phones, on anything. I never had faith they’d improve it for Portal. Sony has only disappointed me nonstop since 2011. Steam has only continued to win me over time and time again.
Ever since the PS3 they have been a generation behind Xbox for online services and connectivity in their consoles.
D-word, so you’re saying I can play PS5 from a dang steam deck?
Via Chiaki evidently.

So I seriously miss the target audience of PS Portal? Are they only targeting people who want to use this device in their own houses either in the bed or on the sofa? And that’s a pretty steep price for such a useless device.
That fact that it can’t even play direct from the PS+ cloud gaming service shows what a half-baked device this is.
In order for me to be interested it would have to be able to stream games in from my PS5, PS+ cloud gaming, and my PC. Maybe add Xbox GamePass streaming as well.
Realistically it’s going to have to come from a third party if it wants all that, at which point you might as well just have a controller grip for your phone.

You can buy a $15 phone clip to attach your phone to your controller, and enjoy remote play that way.
Holy cow, this is awesome. Gonna set this up later!
Been using Chiaki on my Steam Deck for a while now. Portable Bloodborne was great.
So I just set it up and tested out a few different games and I’m encountering some pretty consistent. Periodic lag spikes where the visuals totally stop and get glitched out, any suggestions? I’m doing 720p 10000
I had to tinker with settings a bit, and don’t recall exactly what I had to do. I remember it being glitchy, and I was able to get rid of it with one of the graphics options. I’m using Chiaki4Deck, which is a fork of Chiaki specifically made for Steam Deck, in case we’re talking about different settings.
One thing that possibly rings a bell is the window behind the game (the Chiaki app where you pick a console) is still open in the background which could cause flashing and glitching. Have you tried running it in Desktop mode?
Also, sometimes it doesn’t connect and the only way to get it to try again is by resetting the PS5. Once it’s connected, it works fine.
