Could you build this?

No Building an AirPlay receiver payload for a jailbroken PS5 requires proprietary protocol reverse engineering (AirPlay FairPlay/RAOP crypto) and deep low-level console exploitation/FreeBSD kernel payload development.

What it would actually take: The stack requires compiling an ELF payload for PS5's customized FreeBSD kernel utilizing unofficial jailbreak SDKs (e.g., Prospero), coupled with an AirPlay 2 mirroring server implementation (RTSP, H.264 video decoding, RTP audio, and Apple's pairing/crypto protocols). Developers need hardware exploitation expertise, console graphics buffer display access without standard APIs, and reverse engineering of Apple's closed network protocols.
