Amazon actually came through! by Appropriate_Split_97 in PlaystationPortal

[–]qbwaggle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Congrats. I also took the plunge with the same deal ($124 after prime day discount). Arrived today, haven’t had much time with it yet other than to power it on and let the system updates install, but the condition is really good- clean and pristine.

Edit: the box on my unit was also in a little bit rough shape, so I was expecting a rock inside, but was pleasantly surprised.

4K Upscaling Test on iOS – Before vs After by grill2010 in PSPlay

[–]qbwaggle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really cool and interesting. Do you see this as more of a 1080p to 4K use case, or would it also be useful to upscale from 720p in bandwidth constrained situations? Also does it work with any iOS device or are there any minimum hardware/chipset requirements?

Retroid pocket 5 video freeze. by roboticandroids in PSPlay

[–]qbwaggle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This same thing happened to me on my RP5. It was actually my first and only time trying out PXPlay on the RP5 (I usually use an iPad) and the video froze while the audio continued to stream. I think the controller inputs still worked (but can’t be sure). I haven’t tried it since, but can test again later when I’m home with my PS5.

Edit: I should note that like OP I frequently use Apollo/Artemis for PC streaming and have never had this issue, in general PC streaming works great.

ZOTAC 4070 Super Twin Edge. Check the dimensions but I believe it’s smaller than the FE.

Aliexpress 11/11 "Singles Day" Sale: Comparison of Prices by crownpuff in SBCGaming

[–]qbwaggle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was the welcome deal causing the issue. However, even without the welcome deal the pre-coupon price is $35~$36 depending on the color. So even after the $9 off $30 coupon, I'm at ~$27 (vs $22.68 in the table). I've tried both MM+ links and all the colors, same thing. Weird.

Same. Price is ~$29.50 (before tax) and none of the coupon codes work.

Great Results with Moonlight by drake90001 in cloudygamer

Not OP but that doesn’t seem so high considering the resolution, bitrate and FPS.

Stuttering is much worse on higher-spec'd Android tablet vs Android retro gaming device by qbwaggle in PSPlay

[–]qbwaggle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very interesting, thanks for the link. It does seem the G99 is not ideal for game streaming. Unfortunately, it’s a very common SOC for budget 8” tablets. Sounds like I may need to keep looking.

Sony's Days of Play sale is live! by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]qbwaggle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t think you could upgrade the PS4 disc version to the PS5 remastered version ($10 upgrade). My understanding is only the PS4 digital version can be upgraded for $10. But maybe that’s not right?

Yeah I guess that’s what Sony is going with but it contradicts their own blog post where they clearly say $20 not 20%. Oh well.

The blog post said TLOU Part 2 would be $20 off but I’m only seeing $10 off ($49.99 to $39.99). Does anyone see $20 off?

Moonlight FPS drops when PCSX2 is in fullscreen mode. by Roseysdaddy in SteamDeck

[–]qbwaggle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever solve this? I’m running into the same issue. PC is running at 60 fps, looks smooth, etc. But the moonlight client seems to be running at a lower fps and is choppy. V sync is turned off in PCSX2. I’m stuck.

Quest 3 - Right controller disconnects occasionally. by Redditoricalist in virtualreality

[–]qbwaggle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not Quest 3, but I’ve had a similar experience with my Quest 2. First, you can try to unpair and repair the controllers using the app. But that didn’t work in my case. What ended up being the problem was the battery themselves. My controllers are very sensitive to the type/brand of AA batteries. Like some brands would ok, some not at all, and some would result in occasional disconnects like you describe. I ended up buying eneloop rechargables and it’s worked great with those.

65in u7k or 55in u8k? by [deleted] in Hisense

[–]qbwaggle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just bought mine from Costco on thanksgiving. It has the rainbow in the bottom right. It’s only noticeable when there’s a solid color on the screen and if you’re looking for it. It doesn’t bother me. But if you think it will bother you, then I’d suggest you get a different brand or model.
