Although I no longer use Pico, I still remember a bit. This tutorial is suitable for friends who love tinkering and debugging, and it’s best if you can apply what you learn to other situations.

Software Features and Highlights:#
- A brand new cross-platform connection technology architecture, a completely new user interface design, the software has been renamed to “PICO Connect”;
- Improved SteamVR compatibility, significantly reducing instability issues with older versions of games;
- New desktop streaming feature, supporting Windows and Mac, allowing you to use your computer within the all-in-one device;
- Supports automatic connection for the same account on both ends, reducing the steps for cross-platform connection;
- Supports game super-resolution feature, allowing high clarity even on low configurations;
- Supports game Gamma adjustment, allowing you to adjust brightness and darkness scenes at will;
- Added controller sensitivity settings, optimized default controller sensitivity;
10.3.9 update content: - Supports multi-window streaming feature, allowing you to add up to 3 screens through "Screen Management" (only PICO 4 Ultra supports this)
- Supports creating virtual displays, allowing various different resolutions to be set (only PICO 4 Ultra supports this)
- Added game screen - color enhancement mode
- Fixed known issues
Notes:#
- The multi-window feature is currently not supported on Mac computers with Intel graphics.
- When all 3 windows are opened or when a high-resolution window is opened, performance pressure is high, so it is recommended not to run VST simultaneously.
Increase Frame Rate#
Reference Video 1: Achieve 120 high frame rate and 240Mbps high bitrate for Pico streaming without plugins!
Reference Video 2: Achieve Pico 120Hz + 240M streaming in one minute! Outperforming VD & Quest2!
Configuration logic: Sacrifice image quality or unlock power consumption for frame rate, and vice versa, while discovering the advantages of PCVR.
