A native homebrew GeForce NOW client for the PlayStation Vita, written in Rust. It signs in to your GFN account, browses your game library, negotiates a real WebRTC session against NVIDIA's streaming servers, and plays the game on the Vita's screen using the console's hardware H.264 decoder — with your controller input forwarded back to the game.

The two things 0.2.1 couldn’t do were use the rear touchpad for the analog triggers and L3/R3, and type into a game. Both are here now.
Input
In-game keyboard. Built on the Vita’s inline IME — letters, Backspace, Enter, and arrow keys are sent to the game as real keystrokes.
Rear touch → L2/R2, with selectable trigger intensity.
L3/R3 zones on the front screen, optionally drawn over the stream.
Trackpad mode — the front panel acts as a mouse for games that require one.
In-stream toolbar for all of it, collapsible so it stays out of the way.
Streaming
Rebuilt audio with a jitter buffer, RED packet recovery, and a gain stage. NVST audio arrives out of order often enough to matter over 2.4 GHz, and is much quieter than a local GameStream host. Audio boost is selectable.
Link estimation — the client remembers what your network actually delivered and requests a ceiling bitrate instead of using a fixed guess that costs the first seconds of every session in lost packets and resolution drops.
Selectable frame rate, persisted between sessions.
Live stats overlay.
Catalog
Favourites, stored on the memory card. They survive the 1000-title page limit, so a starred game always shows up.
Sort by recently played, recommended, or title.
Performance
CPU/GPU clocks raised to a streaming-safe profile, and the shell loop now paces the entire video pipeline.
Threads pinned across the Vita’s worker and UI cores stop the decoder, audio, and interface from fighting for the same core.
Fixed
The in-game keyboard crashing the client on open.
Install
Copy opennow-vita.vpk to your Vita and install it with VitaShell.
Requires your own GeForce NOW account.
