PS5 Suite v8.1.1

New — Android Remote Play over the internet

• Video + audio on the phone — hardware-decoded H.264 video and Opus audio playback (AudioTrack) inside the controller view, immersive landscape fullscreen.
• Suite Link remote connectivity — connect from mobile data or any network using an 8-character per-console code: direct IPv6 → NAT punch → MQTT relay fallback.
• No re-pairing needed remotely — the app clones the credentials already registered on the console (regist key + AES + MAC exposed by the payload status) instead of re-running the Sony pairing handshake, which only accepts true remote peers.

Changed — stream quality

• Adaptive quality profile — direct connections (LAN/Wi-Fi/IPv6) now negotiate up to 720p60 / 6 Mbps; relay/tunnel paths keep a compact 540p profile for stability. Previously Android was hardcoded to 960×540@30/1.5 Mbps everywhere.
• Full frame visible — video switched to Uniform so the entire 16:9 frame is shown on tall phone screens (no more cropped top/bottom; thin side bars only).
• Layout fixes: separated control zones and analog sticks; Cross button uses an X glyph that every font renders.

Security

• Removed a hardcoded per-console Suite Link code from UI placeholders and test defaults. Codes live only in the payload (/data/suite_link_code.txt) and per-device saved settings — they are no longer baked into distributed binaries.

Fixed

• Trophy Lock removed — the re-lock feature has been disabled; unlock-only from this version forward.
• Reentry guard on remote connect — repeated taps no longer cancel the in-flight pairing PIN (was causing 403 invalid or expired over slow relay paths).
• Payload status JSON now reports console MAC for remote session setup.
• Zero warnings / zero errors across managed and payload builds.

Artifacts

• PS5Suite.exe — Windows x64 (self-contained, includes ps5chiaki engine)
• PS5Suite.apk — Android (arm64/armv7/x86_64)
• ps5_suite_server.elf — PS5 payload (deploy to port 9021)
• PS5Suite-Linux-x64.zip, PS5Suite-Linux-ARM64.zip, PS5Suite-macOS-x64.zip, PS5Suite-macOS-ARM64.zip — suite without the Remote Play engine
• checksums.txt — SHA-256 of all artifacts

Payload refresh (post-release)

• ps5_suite_server.elf replaced with the latest build: UDS trophy unlock pipeline (schema-typed property posting, counterBase fix), unlock/snap/restore/evpost commands, and r/d/q raw-read, detach and quick-mount diagnostic modes. SHA-256 in checksums.txt updated.
• Client artifacts rebuilt from the latest tree as well: PS5Suite.exe (win-x64), PS5Suite.apk, and all platform zips now include the uncommitted Trophy UI / Suite Link / Remote Play / Protocol changes.

Client refresh 2 (post-release)

• File browser Move/Copy now opens a remote folder picker (browse PS5 dirs, ".." up, optional rename in the same dialog) instead of a free-text path input. Rebuilt for all targets; PS5Suite.exe SHA-256 updated in checksums.txt.

Payload refresh 3 (post-release) — trophy unlock correctness fix

• ps5_suite_server.elf replaced again: fixes UDS event property values >INT_MAX being truncated (e.g. Ratchet TrophyCodeNameHash selectors like 3893523250 were parsed with atoi into a signed int, went negative, and posted 0 — the extraction rule never matched). evval/evcval are now long and parsing uses strtoll.
• Verified end-to-end on Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart (NPWR20842_00): full set reset -> clean 0/47 rebuild -> 46 consecutive single-trophy unlocks (unlock:<id>), all awarded, Platinum cascaded -> daemon-authoritative 47/47. Same code path also reached 47/47 via unlock:all.
• Client artifacts rebuilt from the same tree so every target (Windows x64/x86/ARM64, Linux x64/ARM64/ARM32, macOS x64/ARM64, Android) carries the Move/Copy folder picker and all current UI/protocol changes. SHA-256 in checksums.txt regenerated.

Full rebuild (post-release) — SDK v0.45, zero warnings

• ps5_suite_server.elf rebuilt against ps5-payload-sdk v0.45 (adds kernel offsets for fw 14.00/14.10). The last remaining build warning (unused pread result variable in the EKC probe path) was fixed — payload now compiles with 0 warnings / 0 errors.
• All client artifacts rebuilt from the same source tree with 0 warnings / 0 errors: PS5Suite.exe (win-x64), PS5Suite.apk (Android), and all platform zips (Windows x86/ARM64, Linux x64/ARM64/ARM32, macOS x64/ARM64).
• SHA-256 in checksums.txt regenerated for every artifact.

Move/Copy progress (post-release)

• File browser Move/Copy now shows live progress: a status strip appears under the PS5 file list while the payload streams a cross-mount copy — progress bar + Moving X/Y MB text. The payload emits progress frames every 32 MB (was: only one frame per 512 MB, so most files produced none).
• Same-mount moves still complete instantly via rename() — no strip, no overhead.

Fixed-port networking (payload)

Every listener is pinned to exactly ONE port — no fallback/wander:

Redeploy semantics: SIGKILL siblings → loopback SHUTDOWN → wildcard bind →
specific {LAN, loopback} escape → wildcard retry. A frozen (uninterruptible)
stale instance can hold the wildcard forever — FreeBSD lets a more-specific
bind coexist, so the suite is always reachable on 9113 regardless.

Suite Link — user-settable link code

The console's 8-char Suite Link code can now be changed from the app:
"Set on PS5" writes it to /data/suite_link_code.txt and the payload
re-advertises under the new MQTT topics within ~2s (no reboot/redeploy).
"Read from PS5" fetches the console's current code. Validation matches
the generator alphabet: 8 chars, A-Z without I/O, digits 2-9
(new payload command 0x88).
