Do you have both the PS TV and the PS4 wired? There's a Framerate option which you can set to high so you should then be streaming at 720 / 60 fps. If that doesn't help I don't think this is much else you can try.

PS3 game installs were fairly terrible though, unpacking thousands of files all over the hard drive, whereas PS4 uses similar methods to PC, just storing larger archive files .

43 minute install time for GT5
Updates for GT6 were horrible... You sit down and think "I have an hour, i think i'll do a few races" 45 mintues later...... *sigh*
This, and GT5 was no better either... I have so enjoyed the speed of installation on ps4. Sony really did release a machine that fixed so many issues with their previous machine.
Granted the media side is still lacking comparable to a ps3 but its still without doubt one of the best gaming machines I've ever used...

The GT5 patch corrupts every time I try to download it :<
Wasn't that an issue that was fixed by removing the game content from the HDD and starting from scratch?
Tbh GT5 was such a pain to install , I csnt fully remember.

I wish it was fixed from that, I've done everything (that I'm aware of) and it always fails on the same patch :\ No solution has fixed it for me, even after a reformat. Just found another thread with the issue that I might try and hope it works.

Are you connecting directly to the PS4 or via the network?
You want to be doing the former.
I sometimes use my Vita for remote play and it is fine when directly connected (both via wireless).

That's a good way forward. I managed to get my LE PS4 bundle for just about £300, but I did have to go out of my way and buy it from an EU (not UK) retailer. I'm just waiting for more games to come out now, preferably good for local multiplayer. My second DS4 controller has only been used on the PC to play MGS5 so far.
I also have found remote play laggy so I'll have to try that. Thanks for the tip..

How do I know when a game has finished installing to the hard drive? I know this doesn't in the background, but just got a few games so want to get them all done so I can see how much space I have left and so I don't have to worry about it.

Put disc in, should get progress bar under game icon - as soon as it disappears its installed.

We have had it already if i am correct. You can get the new console and Uncharted Collection for £299 now as opposed to the £329.00 we would have had to pay before.

After buying the uncharted bundle I'm hoping that's the decrease and theres not another one on the way shortly.
Yep, and if you are downloading a game, it'll use play n go, and you can select the game tile, press options, go to information and it'll tell you how much game data is remaining to download...

It could well be, might have just been due to the release of the new 1TB hard drive. Don't think there will be any more drops in price soon though, next will probably be next year.
Associate
yeah its the 1TB bundle ive got coming. Hopefully it doesnt drop again in price super quickly. Obviously it will eventually but as long as its not before christmas I'll be happy
Yeah its all wired - I don't do wireless for gaming.
I've got a vita and a Sony Z3 too - and they all seem to lag, hence thought by having a hard wired PSTV would help but no joy
waste of £20, its worse than both the vita and the Z3 and their both wireless!Trying to play destiny is a right mare!

My PS4 Uncharted bundle was delivered today.
Bought a few games and an extra controller to go with it.
Got PES15 for £7 so gonna start with that I think.

The PSTV should not be worse than the VITA as it is basically a screenless VITA.
When selecting remote play what option are you choosing? One will connect directly to the PS4 (through your home network) and one will try to find your PS4 via the internet (allowing remote play outside of the home networks range).
Destiny has an amount of noticeable input lag but the game is playable.
