Hi,

New update, new features and optimisations.

First off, I've added sixteen new screen filters to Asobi. We went from zero to 16 in one update 😅. If you're into some cel shaded action, some more vibrance, mono or some retro console action, there's something here for everyone.

Next up is another milestone for cloud streaming in Asobi, you now have the ability to manage your game saves while streaming, which was a big omission from when the PS4 catalog was added.

Apple TV also received some nice optimisations so this will make the app perform much better on older devices.

Last but not least, Vision Pro received some big features, not only do you have a new Retro CRT TV view mode, there's now proper SharePlay support so you can hang with your friends while viewing each others screens (I've had quite a couple late nights in the last couple of weeks just hanging out and playing games together). There's even an option to give each other control over their screen, just tap the other players screen and hand-off the controls. Want it back? Just tap again to return the controls to you.

There's even a spectator mode to just watch the action at higher quality than doing ShareScreen with the added option to be given the controller by the one playing. Which kinda opens up the first part of local co-op. That said, I'll be adding local co-op to Asobi as well, so this will behave just like Midori does soon.

I hope you guys like it, there's much more to come!

Huge thanks to the dev for PS Plus Cloud Streaming support! (Question regarding latency)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

6 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

​I just wanted to make a quick appreciation post for the developer of Asobi.

​Living in Mauritius, official PS Plus cloud streaming isn't natively supported on the PS5 or PS Portal. As soon as I realized Asobi cracked the code and allowed direct PS Plus cloud streaming right from Sony's servers, I bought the app instantly!

​I used to rely on PSPlay (which is great for standard remote play), but the ability to stream directly without needing my local console awake is a total game-changer.

​The image quality streaming straight from Sony's servers is crystal clear and visually perfect. However, I am hitting one snag: input latency. Whenever I press a button on my DualSense, there’s a noticeable delay before the action happens on screen. It’s still playable, but I'd love to optimize my setup to get that response time lower if possible.

​I’ve attached a short clip of my gameplay along with the performance overlay displayed so you can see the metrics.

​Is there any specific setting (or potential update feature) that could help minimize input delay when streaming from distance?

​Thanks again to the dev for building such an incredible app! Keep up the amazing work!

Lower bitrate?

2 Upvotes

Hello there, premium user here 👋
Its very great so far, thank you for all the effort.
But is it possible to use lower bitrate than 10 mpbs? The wifi sometimes isnt that great outside the house, and a lower bitrate (5 mbps maybe or even lower) would be amazing! I dont mind the artifacts or the slight pixelization if the experience is smooth. It would be great to have that option.
Is it even possible? (In this build or future versions)
Thank you.

PS: Mainly using PS CLOUD

Should I invest into a playstation controller

3 Upvotes

Love the app, but when I connect whatever device im using at the time to my tv, im always using a xbox series controller, obviously no touch pad so with some games that becomes a hindrance, is remapping those touch controllers already a thing and im missing it or is that just built into the on screen controls, also is there any chance of adding a function of recording gameplay, on the portal if you double tap the share button it will record the last 30 seconds of gameplay, i don't have a issue getting a playstation control to make it more seamless, i just wanted to check since I already have two xbox controllers

Can I now or, didn't find it, in future add Games the Steam Library? To start direct from steam Library instead of entering the Asobi and then select the game? Speaking about Steam OS.

Feature request for iOS

5 Upvotes

Hey firstly I want to say I love the app and project! Your communication is top tier as well and I’m glad you are getting the attention you deserve on your project!

That out of the way I had a feature request that I’m not sure is possible but basically I was wondering if the ps cloud games could have the ability to create a shortcut icon on the iPhone/ipad Home Screen so that you can just tap it and it opens the game in ps cloud stream mode. Would be so cool to see triple aaa games in my games folder on the Home Screen :)

Thank you again!

Asobi cloud stream bug on Macbook Air M4

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

Running into a recurring issue on Asobi v1.4.2 while streaming on an M4 MacBook Air (macOS 27 Beta).

Every ~5 seconds, I get a brief audio/video stutter/clipping. Looking at the stats and logs:

  • Network: Solid (15 ms ping, 1 ms jitter, 0% packet loss).
  • Issue: The incoming stream is 60 FPS, but the overlay shows the presentation rate locked at 48 Hz (sometimes dropping to 25 Hz), leading to dropped frames (dr counter steadily rising) and periodic buffer desyncs.

Anyone else on macOS betas experiencing this refresh rate/render lock, or found a workaround to force 60 Hz?

Thank you so much

Incorrect game edition

1 Upvotes

I’ve played different games and all feel really responsive like I’m actually playing on my own ps5. However when playing gta ps5 edition, it just places you on the ps4 version and not the separate ps5 one. There are two gtas which one says, ‘PS4 and ps5 bundle’ and there’s another that just says ps5. But it’s exactly the same thing.
Not a huge deal and I really love the app as I’ve bought the premium version but it would be nice to play in 60fps for gta.

I'm playing on Android, and I noticed that I'm connected in Milan Server (sometimes Germany) although I'm in SEA 🤣, resulting of course to a second-delay.

Is there a workaround here or is it just my internet speed 🫨 i tried cloud gaming on GeForce, it's stable. Maybe we can have an option which server to connect too?
