Could you build this?
No Requires jailbroken PS5 reverse engineering, custom low-level C/C++ graphics programming, hardware video decoding APIs, and proprietary streaming protocol implementation.
What it would actually take: Requires deep C/C++ systems engineering, reverse-engineering of PlayStation 5 internal OS APIs (Prospero) for video decoding and GPU presentation, and implementation of NVIDIA's proprietary GeForce NOW RTSP/WebRTC-like streaming protocol. Testing and execution necessitate an exploitable/jailbroken PS5 testbed environment.
