This thread is for the discussion of Kainy. (note to developer - send me a private message if you would like to edit this thread)

Kainy is a remote desktop oriented for gaming and performance. Stream your games from your PC into your OUYA.

LOVE IT - brilliant stuff. Streams perfect and very well over network and WAN.

I fooled around with it earlier today, it's a great program. Need some more time with it as I really, REALLY hate the controller mapping. But overall good job by them on getting included into the Ouya apps. I'll be seeing if I can get "Big Picture Mode" from Steam to work on it, then that'll be a "Grand Slam" for me personally.

Awesomeee, been waiting for this, I WANT MY OUYA NOW, can't wait to try this!

Just saw this on twitter, so jumping on this now. :eek-new:

[djaxis]

so, who wants to star sharing hints/tips/settings that will enable me to get the best out of kainy? truth be told, i have no idea how to use these kind of things. i did get my ouya and pc connected, but had to really lower the picture quality to have anything even coming close to playable in minecraft.

my pc is hardwired to the modem, but my ouya is over wi-fi... am i going to need to hard wire my ouya too?

I really wish Kainy on the serverside would let me pick my own password..

^ Agreed; I had nothing to write with nearby, and had to bounce between rooms a number of times, playing the memory game. Since the demo has no sound, I wonder if the frame rate takes a further hit with the sound on in the purchased version.

Hi there,
I've recently purchased the Kainy app. Controller support works great btw! Can anyone else share their experience with Kainy on Ouya? My PC(server) is sitting in my bedroom and my ouya is in the living room approx 20 ft away. I have Kainy running only on WLAN. Is anyone else having alot of lag issues? I have a 1 to 1 1/2 sec lag on input. Does anyone have any tips that could help this problem out? My PC is wired to the wireless router. My ouya is obviously getting signals through wifi.

Thanks

I purchased the app. Having alot of input lag problems and video quality is so so. Any suggestions other than not using hard wired connection? That would defeat its purpose.

[Silent Rob]

I would assume it would function faster as a hardwired feature. The amount of back and forth inputs/outputs will most definitely make it laggy and choppy. I messed around with it using wifi on ouya and hardwire for PC, and it was always a bit wonky.

But to be quite honest, unless you have a real butch Wi-Fi router, you're stuck with this kind of experience... I know, because I need a new router now! LOL
