Dear /k,

Recently i have bought a ps4 along with 4k tv.
However, due to the UHD resolution, the tv is now being dominated by my family members.
They are willing to stop their movies/youtube for me whenever i want to play games, but deep inside my heart this kills me.

Therefore, im looking for other options so that i could play game while they watch movies.
Remote play may be the best option for me. Please share your remote play experiences with these devices
1) any xperia
2) ps vita
3) laptop

PC or laptop better. the performance is depend on ur network connection

been use it but dono how to sync with ps4 controller . once use it the connection with controller sync but the screen reject to connect.

i curi curi play with remote play in the office with my surface 3, have to plug in the Dualshock 4 via USB cable to play, no problems also. but i do feel a slight lag once in a while. not recommended for movement intensive games like FPS, good for random farming runs just to pass the time. also very dependant on ur internet speed.

pc/laptop. if your ps4 is nearby your room, create a dupe acc. for remote play. then use your controller to connect to your actual account. no need to plug in usb. usually lag happens because of the usb.

tldr - dupe acc - for laptop screen. own acc - for control

Done that a few times.
1. Tested it with the Vita. Both the phat and the slim one. It's alright 70% of the time. But the connection sometimes screws up leaving me with laggy/poor quality image.

2. Tested it with a Mac. Since both Ps4 and Mac are connected via local wired Ethernet, it's as smooth as butter. Hardly notice any lag. Can even play FPS.

bro just get a new tv, nowdays 32 inch tv is freaking cheap

Is this enough or overkill for remote play? Also im on streamyx 8mb.

for remote play on pc don't need overpower pc also can. just dload the "remote play"app from sony website. install it and run. sync both pc and ps4 using the same network. gotta key-in numbers from ps4 screen. later after sync complete just plug in ur ds4 using usb cable to pc. play like normal after that. been using this to stream my Persona 5 and Tales of Berseria gameplay on fb using nvidia broadcast on my pc since both games blocked the sharing function lol

Im trying to spend as minimal as possible that laptop costs about rm3k T_T. Im buying laptops for normal work stuff and maybe can curi curi remote play lol

That was a nice sharing. I have tried with my pc, but the lagging was terrible. The internet speed sure does plays an important role for the remote play. Well i guess, maybe should consider buying a small monitor. (this is not align with the thread, but, whatever )

Play with PSvita...but small screen..not great except for portability

did you have an old TV? cant use that? why you feel bad about it though hahah. unless you gonna play for really long time. takkan noone has anything else to do. anyways for remote play it depends on your wifi speed/router as well. i used to play titanfall 2 via remote play when im waiting for my son to tido. and thats very high speed. once in a while there is lag. but otherwise its ok. i was using android app but doesnt work anymore sadly. if you use your laptop + wired connection, should be ok kot?

Use of this new feature requires a PlayStation system, DUALSHOCK wireless controller, an account, and high-speed Internet connection. https://apktall.com/ps4-remote-play-apk
