  What's New in This Fork
  
  This fork adds the following enhancements to ywnico's vitaki-fork:
  
  1. Latency & Performance Optimizations
     • Thread priority tuning: Input thread at priority 96 (highest), audio/video at 64, with CPU affinity to prevent contention
     • Faster input polling: Reduced from 5ms to 2ms (500Hz sampling) for 2.5× faster controller response
     • Optimized network queue: Trimmed Takion reorder buffer from 128 to 64 packets to reduce buffering latency
     • Estimated improvement: 20-40ms total latency reduction, input lag reduced from ~20-30ms to ~10ms
     • See docs/LATENCY_QUICK_WINS.md for full details
  2. Controller Customization
     • 3 custom preset slots: Create and save your own button mappings (Custom 1, Custom 2, Custom 3)
     • Immersive controller screen: Fullscreen PS Vita diagram with procedurally-rendered graphics
     • Front/back view navigation: D-pad or touch to switch between front controls and rear touchpad
     • Visual mapping: See all button assignments on an interactive controller diagram
     • Settings integration: Controller tab in Settings page with L/R navigation
  3. VitaRPS5-Style UI Redesign
     • Modern card-based console selection interface
     • Professional PlayStation-themed color scheme
     • Wave-animated navigation sidebar with collapsible menu (Triangle to open/close)
     • Redesigned PIN entry screen with individual digit display
     • Centralized focus manager for smooth D-pad navigation
     • Tabbed settings page (Streaming, Controller) with visual polish
  4. Enhanced Console Wake Flow
     • "Waking up console..." screen with animated progress
     • 30-second timeout with visual countdown
     • Automatic streaming start when console wakes up
     • No need to press X twice
  5. Fixed Controller Input Issues
     • Resolved race condition that prevented controller input during streaming
     • Properly separated UI and input thread buffer access
     • Controllers now work reliably during remote play
     • Input stays responsive during packet-loss fallback recovery
  6. Improved Console Management
     • Re-pairing now properly deletes registration data from storage
     • Better console name and IP display formatting
     • Circle button for cancel (PlayStation convention)
  7. Packet-Loss Fallback & Overlay
     • When Ultra Low still drops frames, the client now pauses briefly, displays a reconnecting overlay, and restarts streaming at an even lower bitrate instead of crashing back to the menu
     • Automatic retries keep discovery paused and resume seamlessly once the link stabilizes
     • Controller input continues flowing during recovery to prevent input gaps
• Instructions
  
  Local connection
  
  1. Connect PS Vita and PS5 (or PS4) to the same local WiFi network.
  2. Log in to the same PSN account on both the PS5 and the Vita.
  3. Open Vitaki on PS Vita.
  4. Check settings (gear icon) to ensure your encoded PSN ID is there (if it's not automatically populated, or you accidentally deleted it, press START to re-detect it).
  5. The console should be automatically detected and appear as an icon.
  6. Select the console and Vitaki should ask for a registration code. On the PS5, navigate to Settings > System > Remote Play and select Pair Device. An 8-digit numeric code should appear; enter this into Vitaki and hit triangle to save.
  7. Select the console again in Vitaki. It should now connect (and in the future, will not ask for the device pairing code).
