Gamestreaming desktop consoles (PS3/X360/PS4/XOne) to Android (and other) devices

Universal Gamestreaming method




posted a guide (in spanish, use translator) for gamestreaming our desktop consoles (PS3/X360/PS4/XOne).

The main goal of this guide is providing an universal method for streaming/gamestreaming our desktop consoles, and get them on our devices such Android consoles, allowing to play on it in normal way, using the android console controls directly, and get a new way to play on desktop consoles, even in remote (outside our local network).

This guide is part of the Guide for Gamestreaming that i published some days ago. (and is so extensive for translating to english for now)

Note: WiiU is not included for now because there are some tech problemas that don´t allow to use this device for streaming.

The client devices may be from many kind.

  • Android device
  • IOS device
  • PC Widnows
  • PC Linux
  • windows phone
  • Google Chrome Browser (with add-ons enabled)

etc.

(Example running streaming of PS3 on Google Chrome browser via Kainy)

The client of the streaming depends on the the streaming solution you choice.


  • Limelight
  • Kainy
  • Splashtop Gamepad THD


The guide includes these three alternatives, because with this is possible to bring some alternatives for people that don´t have a compatible NVidia GPU for use within LimeLight, the other solutions may work fine for other GPUs.


The solution is divided in two parts:

Part 1: Streaming audio/Video from your desktop console to some device to be used as screen, and play using the normal controller connected to their desktop console

Part 2: once you get the part 1 running, you can control your desktop console by the client streaming device, and with this allowing remote gamestreaming (outside your local network)


Part 1: Audio/Video Streaming


With this, you can play on your desktop console using something similar to gameklip, or directly on your tablet using the desktop console controller.

You will need:


  • A capture card for your video output from desktop console
  • A software for previewing the video captured. (Debut, Totalmedia Extreme 2, TV View, etc. Any software that don´t generate lag in the image)
  • A software for streaming (Limelight, Kainy, Splashtop THD)
  • A tablet, smartphone, etc. that will be the client of streaming
  • A desktop console that you want to stream, and a wireless controller (you will play with this, connected to their console)


example:

Part 2: Complete GameStreaming (Audio/Video/Control)


If you need control your desktop console from your device, i.e. for remote playing, then you will need:

  • A capture card for your video output from desktop console
  • A software for previewing the video captured. (Debut, Totalmedia Extreme 2, TV View, etc. Any software that don´t generate lag in the image)
  • A software for streaming (Limelight, Kainy, Splashtop THD)
  • A tablet, smartphone or similar with a gamepad connected, or an android console etc.
  • A desktop console that you want to stream
  • Optionally, may need a controller from the desktop console, for authenticate process of the gamepad.
  • A Titan One device, for controlling our desktop consoles from streaming client.


Example:

The guide is on my blog. I started a discussion thread in spanish on elotrolado, and i want to start other similar thread in english here. I want to help people that want to try this, but my time for now is low (so much work, end of the year, etc), but i will try to check forums for people that need some help.

I will update this post with some videos of samples with this method.

Many usage examples of streaming desktop consoles

Playing PS3 over gamestreaming, using an Android stick TV and X-Arcade controller

Playing X360 on iPega GP9700, with gamestreaming (controlling the desktop console within iPega controls)


Using new Layout for playing FPS within Mouse&Keyboard. This case, playing PS3-GTA5 on iPega GP9700





Hope you found interesting and useful this info.

Zalu2!
