PS4 Pro will support 1080p Share Play and Remote Play, in addiction to 5GHz WiFI

This is great. Remote Play could stand to look better than the 720p we currently have.
I imagine this will be patched to the base PS4, too?

You can already stream 720p60 to YouTube on the current PS4 so I would be surprised if it wasn't 1080 on this.
Really? When I was streaming Doom, it wasn't streaming at 60fps.
I highly doubt it
It's part of the 4.0 firmware.

Is that the firmware that's coming out soon? Release date on that?

Shrug, depends on the congestion in your area.
Barely anyone near me is on the 5ghz band so 5ghz AC is rock solid with excellent pings (the ping to the nearest speedtest host for me is 5-9ms despite being on wifi).
Wired supremacy is overblown nowadays (again, unless you're in a congested area).

Partially makes up for no 4K Blu-ray support.

My brother has a PS4. Can I remote play the game he has on disc on my own PS4?

is it fair to assume that this also means PS4 Pro Twitch Streams will be 1080p @ 60fps?

What is all this Twitch streaming talk? This will only happen if they remote play to their PC and stream from there. That means increased latency and potential artifacts. I don't see many pro streams dealing with that vs a capture card + streaming PC setup that exists today with any console.
Share play = when a friend can play a game on your console. (That weird feature barely anybody used)
Remote Play = streaming from the PS4 to a Vita, Sony smartphone, or PC.
5ghz WiFi doesn't make twitch streaming faster.

That's called Share Play. It's been around for years now and all PS4 models support it.
My PC is though

Yup, I think this is mostly for PC users (and PS4 Share Play)
I could be wrong, but I think 1080p on Vita would make a lot of UI elements impossible to read.

Is the 5Ghz just wireless n, or does this support ac now?
edit: Just saw the specs thread. Looks like its ac.

Any update on features/performance?

The hardware that's used for captures and remote play is the same hardware used for streaming direct from the console. So if one feature is capable of 1080p/60, they all are.

I still can't use my Bluetooth headphones with it though, right? I need to buy their specific shitty Gold headset.

If you are streaming outside your home, it's your internet connection that matters. If you are streaming in-home with your PS4 and PC connected to the same router, only your router matters and the internet is not involved.

Sony just needs one more hit feature for PS4 Pro to take off.
