No Windows 7?

Booo.

Blablurn · Apr 6, 2016

Thanks!! Can't wait to try it out.

A-V-B · Apr 6, 2016

Unless you're on Windows 7.

Oppo · Apr 6, 2016

oh boy. here we go

PlayStation streaming to a Mac, who'd have thunk it.

way to not sign your app, sony

(for those wondering, you can get around this, it's just funny to me)

Corpekata · Apr 6, 2016

So I guess it's not going to work until the update is live on PS4 right?

not surprising. it didn't come from the App Store.

Eusis · Apr 6, 2016

Really want to find out how this works when sharing internet through the computer. Would you get perfect quality steaming? Will there be some dumb hang up? Could be useful.

shotgunbob04 · Apr 6, 2016

No Windows 7 and no OS X 10.9 smh. You should be able to run this app on a toaster

Dr.Tentacle · Apr 6, 2016

Installed. Waiting for the PS4 Firmware.

Jonnax · Apr 6, 2016

Windows 7 is a crap OS. Slow as a snail compared to Windows 8.

Windows 7 is a 7-8 year old OS and Windows 10 is a free upgrade.

Time to move on.

Yeah, but hopefully 3.50 is up very soon since they opened up the remote play client download link.

Plenty of non-App Store apps are signed, and Sony has an Apple developer agreement to do it (they have PS apps in the iOS App Store), they were just too lazy.

foxbeldin · Apr 6, 2016

Yep, Windows 7 is a no.

Too bad it's my OS at work.

Hamster Plugin · Apr 6, 2016

Did any Windows 7 user even try to install this? It's not an UWP app.

edit: just beaten, that's dumb.

Seems to be the case. Trying to register my PS4 manually leads to an "inconrrect code" message, if when the code is ok.

*shrug* fair enough. I still can't believe there's a Mac client at all.

I didn't get this even though my settings are app store and trusted developers?

Wace · Apr 6, 2016

Now if only Nintendo releases this app for WiiU...

mrklaw · Apr 6, 2016

if you're forced to use a DS4 with a usb cable, can you reuse a PS4 one without it losing pairing to the PS4? Also I'm now discovering that although I have a ton of micro USB cables, I don't have any long ones.

McSpidey · Apr 6, 2016

Just tested it on a MacBook Air (OSX) and it worked instantly, though it was 30fps so am now looking to see if there's a way to make it 60, though there doesn't appear to be any obvious way to do it.

Cereal Enthusiast · Apr 6, 2016

At work right now, waiting for your gaffers to give your impressions.

Ashler · Apr 6, 2016

We need the mandatory itshappening.gif

Inumbris · Apr 6, 2016

Thanks for the heads-up, OP. I'll be sure to give this a go once the firmware is live.

Really curious to see how my not-so-great connection handles this.

You can make it 60fps but 720p is the max resolution though

Oddvintagechap · Apr 6, 2016

I have a Macbook Pro with a graphics card & a speedy router.. I expect sexy results.

Card Boy · Apr 6, 2016

SMH at people complaining about no Win 7. You have no leg to stand on when Win 10 is a free upgrade. It even runs better and boots faster than Win 7.

LewieP · Apr 6, 2016

I'd love to hear an explanation from MS of how come Sony are able to support remote streaming on Windows 8, but Xbox One streaming is limited to Windows 10.

But what if you want to remote play with your computer at work?

Get back to work.

Blastoise · Apr 6, 2016

Ooooh baby can't wait to try this!

HooYaH · Apr 6, 2016

Does the controller need to be hooked up by USB for Mac?

As for the quality, it seems good, but I'm too lazy to go get my Dualshock so I just used the KB.

MS want to push Windows 10 adoption.

The OSX app itself doesn't appear to have any settings, for Vita remote play this was on the Vita side I believe.

Edit: Nevermind, I see - you can change it via preferences but you have to do it before you connect the DS4/press start to connect.

"but my employer won't support my lunchtime Destiny raids with their Win 7 policy!!" *kicks dirt*

Works pretty well so far.

A core i5. Welp.

Does that mean it's 1080p when it's 30FPS? I haven't use remote play since like, launch. LOL. I don't have a Vita anymore, so.

Does this also mean that PC and Mac have proper Dualshock 4 support now?

I think it's on the PS4 side this time. Need the firmware to be released.

Hamster Plugin · Apr 6, 2016

Now they need to make it available for all Androids so I don't need to rely on some guy's unofficial mod any more.

Although I'm guessing they would force DS4 which means no using Nvidia Shield Controller which sucks.

ShutterMunster said:

Dualshock 4 is just a normal DirectInput controller, but MS came up with XInput to standardize the Xbox 360 controller for PC gaming. Only Xbox certified devices can do XInput. The third party software you need to install for DS4 simply converts DirectInput to XInput.

No, it's 720p. Only option is for the framerate.

I just checked, 720p is the max setting available to me.

OSX supports Dualshock 4 natively, it's games that need updating if they don't work with it.

Mine worked okay. I linked it to my MBP with the USB lead then shut the remote play app down and removed the cable and the controller was still synced with my PS4.

yep, same (OS X 10.11.4)

I guess this message appears only in older version of OS X.

LewieP · Apr 6, 2016

Vashetti said:

I don't think that would be their stated explanation. I think there stated explanation is that their streaming solution uses the power of Windows 10, or something similarly vague.

well, the message itself is present in 10.11.4, the .pkg just didn't prompt it

Weirdly I got it on my Macbook but not on my iMac, I thought both were up to date but I guess not!

I'm on 10.11.4, so I dunno what my download's issue is. Clearly I got MITM'd and served a phony download.
