A big feature + reliability release.
- Fixed: PKG updates that crashed the on-console helper. On some firmware,
trying to install a game update could kill the PS5-side helper a few seconds
later, so the update never applied. The root cause was the install-fallback
daemon calling Sony's installer without initialising it first. It now
initialises properly (with a boot-timing wait and retry), so a rejected
update no longer takes the helper down. (Verified on real FW 5.10 + 9.60
hardware — the helper survives now.) - New: manage ps5upload from a web browser. The engine can serve the full
app over HTTP, so a NAS/Docker user can drive their PS5 from any browser on
the LAN — no desktop app needed. - New: install a .pkg straight from your PC — "Stream (beta)". Installs a
package over HTTP without staging the whole file on the PS5 first, so you can
install even when disk space is tight. Labeled beta; the normal
upload-then-install path is still the reliable default. - New: your own payload repos. Add any GitHub/Gitea repo to the Payloads
tab and ps5upload tracks its releases and caches the ELF locally — no more
keeping a pile of.elffiles on your PC. - New: repo-based playlists. A payload playlist can now pull from a repo at
run time instead of a local file, so a boot sequence needs no local files. - New: video clips. Browse and download the PS5's gameplay video clips,
like the Screenshots tab. - New: "Install all" for packages. Install every staged package in one tap,
in the right order (base game → update → DLC). - New: rest mode after uploads. Optionally put the PS5 to sleep once its
upload queue finishes — handy for an overnight queue. Off by default. - New: restore a save straight from a USB drive on the PS5 (the counterpart
to Save-to-USB), plus find unused games on the Installed Apps screen —
sort by play time and surface the ones you haven't touched, then uninstall. - Fixed: a dead payload in the catalogue (the Lapy JB Daemon source had
moved) and a batch of UI text that always showed in English even in other
languages. - Routine dependency and CI updates.
