Hey all, I'm following up on my old post . I said the alpha would land by 29/10, so sorry it's a couple of days late. I had to fix few more bugs and I wanted in-app updates working first, so you only have to FTP it once. Download: https://github.com/abhi245y/ps5-discord/releases/latest What's in it right now Sign in by scanning a QR code with the Discord app on your phone (browser sign-in if Discord throws a captcha at you) Servers, channels and DMs: read, send, reply, react, edit, delete Colour emoji, an emoji picker and stickers, the animated ones too Voice calls in server channels and DMs, end-to-end encrypted like the desktop app Go Live: stream your game into a voice call while you play Notifications for DMs and mentions, including PS5 alerts while you're in a game Now playing: Your friends see what you're playing on your Discord profile Updates from inside the app (Settings > About), and you can roll back if a new version gives you trouble How Go Live works (it's a bit of a hack, so read this before you try it) The PS5 doesn't let homebrew capture the screen or use the mic while a game is in front. So the app opens a Remote Play session with your own console and streams that picture into the call. While you're live, the DualSense has to be plugged in by USB. It plays the game through that Remote Play session and works as your headset: you talk into its mic and hear the call through its speaker or headphones plugged into it. It works. I've been gaming with friends watching. But it has quirks: Bluetooth controllers don't work for Go Live yet. Unplug and replug the controller between streams. The app reminds you. Without Go Live, voice only works while the app is on screen. I'm already working on letting the controller stay wireless during Go Live. It isn't ready, but it's the next big thing on my list. There's a step-by-step guide for voice and Go Live, and a troubleshooting page, linked from the release page. Two things I'd love your input on A Discord server for the project? If enough people are interested, I'll set one up so updates, test builds and bug reports have a home that isn't a Reddit thread. Let me know if you'd join. The name. "ps5-discord" is only the working title, and the app's name isn't final. Right now I'm torn between pscord and uncord. Got a better one? Drop it in the comments. NOTE it's an alpha, only tested on firmware 13.00. Bug reports go on GitHub issues with logs (preferred) Thanks to everyone who commented on the first post. I have added a video of "Go Live" working in the comments...   submitted by   /u/AdIllustrious7246 [link]   [comments]
