D-word, so you’re saying I can play PS5 from a dang steam deck?
- sharpiemarker ( @Sharpiemarker@feddit.de ) 21•7 months ago
Via Chiaki evidently.
- BolexForSoup ( @BolexForSoup@kbin.social ) 16•7 months ago
Takes minutes to set up, highly recommend it. I use it on my PS4 all the time.
- Eggyhead ( @Eggyhead@kbin.social ) 9•7 months ago
Remote play in the house is excellent with Chiaki. I know it works across the web as well, but I can’t figure it out. It just doesn’t work and I have no idea if it’s the way I set up chiaki, the way I set up port forwarding, the way my router handles port forwarding, or simply the internet connection from which I’m attempting to connect. I wonder if the Portal has these issues, because not having to deal with any of that is actually a pretty solid selling point.
- BolexForSoup ( @BolexForSoup@kbin.social ) 2•7 months ago
My guess would be that if you’re having trouble with Chiaki, you will probably have trouble PS portal as well, as usually those issues are at the modem level and have to do with your settings.
- conciselyverbose ( @conciselyverbose@kbin.social ) 3•7 months ago
You have to do additional setup to do Chiaki from outside of your network. With the PS Remote App, they handle everything.
I don’t think either are acceptable local, let alone outside the network, for anything that demands any kind of reaction time, but it’s OK enough for turn based or slower games.

You might be on a CG-NAT network which makes port forwarding impossible. Some ISPs will disable it if you ask (or give you an ipv6 IP which isn’t affected by the issue).
- Eggyhead ( @Eggyhead@kbin.social ) 1•7 months ago
How can I go about learning what any of this means and how to look for it?
- vividspecter ( @vividspecter@lemm.ee ) 2•7 months ago
If you go to https://ipinfo.io at home (over wifi or ethernet) and it says your ip is in the
100.64.0.0/10
range, then you are on a CG-NAT network.This wikipedia article may be helpful. The short answer is that we are running out of public IPv4 addresses so CG-NAT is used so a bunch of users can essentially share 1 (or a few) public IPs. From the router’s perspective, you have a public IP that is actually a private IP in the 100.64.0.0/10 range.
However, not having a real public IP means you have no way for remote devices to directly access your router, so port forwarding won’t work.

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.
- Guntrigger ( @Guntrigger@feddit.ch ) 5•7 months ago
Ever since the PS3 they have been a generation behind Xbox for online services and connectivity in their consoles.
- helenslunch ( @helenslunch@feddit.nl ) 15•7 months ago
PS Portal is a terrible device, but also name another device in the $200 price range you can use to stream PS5 games with good ergonomics and a good display…
E: please read the last 5 words again before suggesting tablets and phones.
You can buy a $15 phone clip to attach your phone to your controller, and enjoy remote play that way.
- helenslunch ( @helenslunch@feddit.nl ) 10•7 months ago
Staring at a 6" display is not a good time.
- DdCno1 ( @DdCno1@beehaw.org ) 5•7 months ago
There are controller cradles for tablets as well. The best display I have is the 10" 1600p 120Hz display of my tablet.
- any1there ( @any1th3r3@lemmy.ca ) 5•7 months ago
I think the Logitech G Cloud would fit in that category, when on sale (otherwise it’s $350 USD, so at that point you might as well get the 64G Deck).
Afaict it’s $250 USD with a promo code now and since it’s basically a tweaked Android ROM, you can stream Game pass, your PS4/PS5 (via PS Play) or Geforce Now and even do some light emulation (up to DC just fine).
Ergonomics and screen are pretty great from what I recall, after testing one a few months ago.- helenslunch ( @helenslunch@feddit.nl ) 1•7 months ago
I’m seeing it for sale on Amazon for $300 still, and the ergonomics look like crap. PSP has what is widely regarded as the best controller ever made.
- Guntrigger ( @Guntrigger@feddit.ch ) 3•7 months ago
The PlayStation Portable was the best controller ever? I hope that is a typo because that horrible nubbin position gave me wrist problems for life.
- any1there ( @any1th3r3@lemmy.ca ) 3•7 months ago
That was on Logitech’s website and after adding it to the cart, no idea about Amazon.
It might not look the part, but I’m talking from experience and it was just a notch below the Deck’s ergonomics tbh.
I think that’s debatable, as many still prefer the Xbox controller design and layout, but I’m biased towards the Dual Sense (as well?), sure.
And please, for the love of every other real handheld that came before it, don’t abbreviate it as PSP…- callouscomic ( @callouscomic@lemm.ee ) English3•7 months ago
Sony certainly are morons about device naming.
- helenslunch ( @helenslunch@feddit.nl ) 1•7 months ago
I’m not about to type out the whole name sorry
- conciselyverbose ( @conciselyverbose@kbin.social ) 1•7 months ago
It’s not that debatable.
The feature set murders the Xbox controller.
- Guntrigger ( @Guntrigger@feddit.ch ) 1•7 months ago
I would debate it. The xbox controller puts the sticks in the thumbs natural resting position, whereas the PS requires some thumb or grip repositioning.
Granted the latest dualsense are the most comfortable, but I always had issues with dualshocks.
- prole ( @prole@beehaw.org ) English2•7 months ago
Dual Sense also has adaptive triggers which are awesome, and probably the best haptics I’ve felt in a controller.
- conciselyverbose ( @conciselyverbose@kbin.social ) 1•7 months ago
That’s entirely preference. There are just as many people who prefer the PS’s layout.
There’s no comparison on function.
- Guntrigger ( @Guntrigger@feddit.ch ) 1•7 months ago
What function does it have that can’t be compared?
- prole ( @prole@beehaw.org ) English1•7 months ago
PSP? Lol what?
Edit: oh… Yeah there’s already a “Sony PSP.”
- Guntrigger ( @Guntrigger@feddit.ch ) 4•7 months ago
I read it again and I will suggest tablets and iPhones with a controller connected.
- dangblingus ( @dangblingus@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) 11•7 months ago
Seems like a stupid decision to make remote play from PS5 system agnostic when your own handheld device doesn’t even work with it.
Like, ELI5, what kind of executive decision making strategy is at play to completely undermine your unprofitable portable hardware?
- ditty ( @dditty@lemm.ee ) 7•7 months ago
Holy cow, this is awesome. Gonna set this up later!
- prole ( @prole@beehaw.org ) English2•7 months ago
Been using Chiaki on my Steam Deck for a while now. Portable Bloodborne was great.
- ditty ( @dditty@lemm.ee ) 1•7 months ago
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
- prole ( @prole@beehaw.org ) English1•6 months ago
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.
- Suburbanl3g3nd ( @Suburbanl3g3nd@lemmings.world ) 2•7 months ago
Why compare the Portal to the Deck? The Retroid Pocket 3/3+/4/etc. and Ayn Odin are much more comparable (and better I’d say)
Edit to address the down votes: my point is that the Portal is not an arm processor. Hence why I chose arm based devices instead of the Ally or any number of AYANEO handhelds. I think devices in the same device category matter way more than 1st/3rd party offerings. If that were the case, we could talk about how everyone prefers Chiaki or whatever the 3rd party ps streaming app is to the first party offering, etc.
