How to play all PS5 games over Remote Play

[kingmarech]

Hello.

I followed the instructions. However, when I tried connecting my DualSense to the XIM APEX on PC it isn't working. It only works when I plug my DualSense with it's USB to the normal PC PORT. But doesn't work once plugged to the XIM Apex ports " ... "

Please help.

I think its power issue this also was happening to mine but i tried multiple times to plug and unplug the xim from my pc then after couple of tries usually works. this happens almost every time i turn on my pc but its so easy to fix just try couple of times.

So glad this was posted (with a video as well!), I'll def go this route as I didn't want to have to purchase the PS4 version.

Does the quality of my pc matter? Can I just use any windows 10 laptop I have lying around?

Also, does the Gigabit ethernet network switch hub need to be cloud managed or unmanaged?

Cables recommended? (specific ones)

Your PC should be good enough if it's running Win 10. It's only used as passthrough for input from XIM APEX to PS5. The Remote Play window can be minimised during use, so PC resources should be minimal, regardless of specs.

Network configuration is dealer's choice. A network switch doesn't have any management at all (they're plug-and-play), it's similar to a USB hub. I use a bunch of network switches around the house connected via in-wall cabling to a central router, which then connects to the modem. But if your gaming setup is close to the modem, just bang the PC & PS5 network cables into the 4-port router at the rear of the modem.

Cables just need to be Cat5E or better for gigabit network compatibility.

I had to upgrade to latest beta firmware to get the dualsense to work on pc (win10) via xim apex.

Upgraded from 20200307 to beta 20210625.

Thanks for that, guide updated.

Hello guys, thanks for this and it works brilliantly. I don’t feel much input lag

However, I have an issue where mid game, my aim starts to go up and I lose responsiveness. Then I looked over at my remote play stream on the laptop, and I see that it was frozen.  This happened intermittently between two matches.

I’ve kept frame rate high and resolution 360p. I’ve also hard wired both the console and the laptop to the same network

My download speed is 250 Mbps and same for upload

Is there anything that is causing it to randomly disconnect or freeze ?

This option with PC Remote does not make sense for shooter FPS games.  It's like I've plugged in my Commodore 64 or Amiga.

Not working on vanguard beta ... aim down doesn’t respond

I have the same problem too

Not even with dual sense directly to the pc

My controller either does not turn on, or when I get it to turn on as soon as I choose profile it disconnects from remote play. Using PS5, DualSense, Xim Apex

so finally got home and have started up the vanguard beta, have the ps5 controller plugged in, works fine over remote play smooth movement BUT triggers do not work, tried it with the ds4 controller also movement is all fine etc but the R2 & L2 buttons dont seem to register so cannot aim or shoot, tried remapping buttons nothing  anyone any ideas?

OBsIV measured roundtrip ping for input from a wired PS5 to a wired PC at less than 1ms over Remote Play. If you’re getting lag, you’re doing it wrong. At most, when configured over ethernet, Remote Play adds 1ms of input lag.

same problem.. works in cod cw but not vanguard. they must have added protection

Its more likely that because of the game being a beta the remote access is not fully developed yet.

So it works better with the Chiaki tool (softer + less input lag.) But there are still input lags from time to time. You can't see anything on 360 with the tool.) I did it on 1080, it works.) I'm still testing. But the Sony Remote App is for the @ # $%

I am using a CAT 8 - 8.1 cable

I don't hope we have to play like this forever.

On 360 you can't see anything with the tool.) Have done on 1080 it works.

You don't look at the tool for gaming, you continue to look at your screen connect to your PS5. So, you should keep it on 360p to reduce bandwidth.

That's stupid my TV can't 120 FPS and no 1ms.
Unless I can (use PS5 or PC in WLAN)
