👨‍🔬 Beta testers needed

- Browser: install this version https://github.com/redphx/better-xcloud/raw/typescript/dist/better-xcloud.user.js
- Android app: Settings > Update Better xCloud script

Update for the Game Bar feature in the previous post and some other functions.

- New:
- Mute/unmute function. This button only becomes visible after you turn the mic in xCloud’s settings first. Help me making sure the voice chat really works.
- Option to disable Game Bar feature in the Settings
- Show animation when taking screenshot

- Changes:
- Using User-Agent profiles likes TV or VR will also disable touch features in Better xCloud.
- ⚠️ The User-Agent setting will be reset. You’ll need to set it again.

Thanks.

🚀 New release

Script version 4.3.0 is available: https://github.com/redphx/better-xcloud/releases/tag/v4.3.0

✨ A lot of new features: Game Bar, video bitrate limitter…

If your device (Android TV) is struggling with high bitrate stream, try to limit the bitrate.

Thanks everyone for testing the beta version.

What's next for Better xCloud:
- I *think* it might be possible to implement the stream recording feature into both the script & app. Not sure how much it will affect the performance.
- But before that I want to go back to update the Android app. It has been a while.

New feature in xCloud website: ability to sort achievements

✨ New on xCloud: Brothers: a Tale of Two Sons

This is a co-op puzzle game that 2 players play on just 1 controller.

If anyone here speaks French or Korean please help translating Better xCloud: https://crowdin.com/project/better-xcloud

Otherwise I’m gonna remove these languages in the next updates since they have a lot of untranslated texts.

This is a screenshot of the next version of Android app.

Do you see anything special? 🤔

New xCloud feature: context menu for games in the Jump back in section has been added.

- Desktop: click on the … button when hovering on the game card
- Mobile: press and hold the game card

Previously it was impossible to view info of any game in the Jump back in section.

✨ New on xCloud: Chants of Sennaar

I also created a custom touch layout for the game.
