SysDVR for PS4 v1.2: USB cable mode, Sharp scaling and a new, simpler settings menu.

v1.1.0 · Oct 26, 2026
SysDVR for PS4 v1.1: English UI and a reworked low-latency pipeline.
What's new
- Whole app translated to English (UI, messages, config file)
- Latency no longer builds up: the socket is drained on its own thread; if decoding falls more than
max_delay_ms(150 ms) behind, the app skips to the next keyframe instead of piling up seconds of delay - Deblocking filter skipped automatically while the decoder catches up
- Triple buffering: a new frame never waits for the previous vsync
- Lower-latency defaults: 2 decoder threads, audio batch 0 (21 ms packets), 60 ms audio buffer. 1.0 config files are upgraded automatically
- Fixed audio buffer handling that could cause crackling
- New settings: Smooth scaling, Max video delay
- Detailed stats overlay: fps, bitrate, decode time, delay, queue, skipped frames, audio buffer, underruns
