Gamestreaming desktop consoles (PS3/X360/PS4/XOne) to Android (and other) devices
Universal Gamestreaming method
I 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.
- 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)

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.

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!
