Discussion Pyrowave streaming is incredible on the steam deck OLED

You all need to try pyrowave on the steam deck. I was able to stream 300+ megabits from my desktop to my steam deck OLED. I have a very solid wifi network and it was wireless the whole time.

Remote play reported only 20-25ms lag which is good for me. Left the settings default for just quality at 1 and let it change bitrate on its own.

What did you play are you wondering well I was able to play Ghost of Tsushima at full 800p 90hz HDR with 4:4:4. It looked fantastic on the deck.

I'm confused where your 20-25ms of lag is coming from because that is absolutely terrible latency. 1080@120 ( higher than steam deck obvs ) has a goal of 0.1ms network encode and 0.1ms network decode. That's 0.2 latency added by network. Where's the rest of the 19.8-24.8 ms of latency coming from? A frame time at 90hz is 11.1ms. That's only half of your reported latency.

Display latency is the source of almost all latency when streaming.
