      Chiaki recently went to v2.0 and with that added PS5 support! :D
      Also the 1080p streaming should now be working!

      Credits to the main developer!

      I have updated my repo, https://github.com/Fredrum/chiaki/wiki/Chiaki-for-the-Raspberry-Pi

      currently in line with the Master which moved to,
      https://git.sr.ht/~thestr4ng3r/chiaki

      I'll continue trying to add some options to make it more useable with retropie.
      Or someone else might do a better job using the chiaki libs.

      Cheers!

        It works like a charm! Sound, 60FPS 1080p, game pads.
        Thanks for your rpi repo!

            Good morning guys! I am experiencing the same issue as described by CaelThunderwing. Is there something simple I am missing to get gui/chiaki to run successfully? @CaelThunderwing were you able to find a solution? Thank all you guys in advance! This is gonna make my Pi4 8GB RetroPie setup kick @$$!! I am so excited to stream my PS4/5 through it!

              Same happening to me, no luck on executing chiaki from RetroPie nor the terminal.
              Always getting:

              Could not find DRM device!
              Aborted
              

              Can you please help us?
              It would be a big step forward to our RetroPie machines :)

              Thanks in advance!

                  Update to say that I've added in very basic functionality to start Chiaki from non Desktop, non X11 environment in the latest version,

                  https://github.com/Fredrum/chiaki/wiki/Run-Chiaki-without-Desktop-(From-cli)

                  Also note that Iv'e identified a problem using xbox controllers with Retropies custom 'xpad' driver for more info see here,
                  https://github.com/Fredrum/chiaki/wiki/Controllers#controller-problems-with-retropie

                  I think there's still some issues using the PS5 controller? The Dualsense?
                  From @Mellao 's report it sounds like that should be fixed with the upcoming Bullseye fingers crossed.

                  And for anyone who's not aware Chiaki works with PS5 as well since a while back!

                    After removing the driver, you should mention that the input configuration in EmulationStation should be re-run, otherwise this will break the configuration for other emulators and ES.

                        Iv'e started working on a version of Chiaki for the Raspberry Pi that's designed to work better without X11, On Ubuntu and 64bit OSs and also able to use h265 video codec.

                        Currently heavily in progress but should work somewhat for those who are used to building projects from source and configuring their system.

                          I'm nearing finishing the first version of this new more Retropie friendly variant of Chiaki but it seems like it's going to need some support software versions higher than what is distributed on the RPiOS distros as default.

                          I was hoping to send you a DM asking you if you had any info on what will be included with a future Bullseye Retropie image, if there is one in the works.

                          Currently my build relies on,
                          SDL2 - 2.0.17 upwards
                          Mesa - 21.3.0 upwards

                          If you have any insights into this I'd love to hear! :) I find it a bit sad that RPiOS is so behind at least with Bullseye I feel they could have upped the SDL version to something higher than current 2.0.14.

                          Cheers!

                            @redmarsbluemoon We intend to include SDL 2.0.20 - not only in Bullseye, but on Buster also. For Mesa, we always use the version offered by the OS, I don't think this will change soon.
