How to Stream Your PS5 to Discord

howtogeek.com:

Streaming your PlayStation 5 gameplay to Discord is a fun way to spice up game night with friends. You can chat while sharing whatever you're doing for a more social experience. There are two methods you can use to do this so let's take a look at how they both work.

How to Stream PS5 to Discord Using Remote Play

Remote Play lets you play on your PS5 without being in front of the primary TV, but it's also useful for streaming too. You will need a PlayStation Network (PSN) account to play remotely but you don’t necessarily need to connect your PSN account to Discord for streaming. You also don’t require a PS Plus subscription to remote play on your PlayStation 5.

First, enable remote play on your PS5 before using it. To do that, head to Settings > System > Remote Play. Then, turn on the “Enable Remote Play” toggle.

Next, download the PS Remote Play app from Windows or Mac from the PlayStation website. Launch the app once installed, then click “Sign In to PSN” on the welcome screen and go through the steps to log into your PSN account. Once signed in, click “PS5” on the console selection screen.

If you have more than one PS5 console linked to your PSN account, select the one you want to connect to in the prompt. The remote play app will then attempt to connect to your PS5. If it is successful, you should see the PS5’s video output in the PS Remote Play window.

To stream it on Discord, open the Discord app and find the chat you want to stream to then click the “Share Screen” button at the bottom of the left panel.

Select the "Applications" tab and click the “PS Remote Play” window.

Set the resolution and frame rate. If you don’t have a Discord Nitro subscription, you won’t be able to set the resolution and frame rate to anything higher than 720p at 30FPS,. Next, click “Go Live” to start the stream.

Your friends should now be able to see your remote play session on the voice channel.
