    Launch the Remote Play app while your PS4 is off. Hit the settings and bring up the resolution setting options and tweak it as per your desire.

    How does it feel Running?

    After the initial disappointment, once you do the required setting as given above. On a pretty decent network connection, Remote Play is what people who wanted to relinquish the TV for whatever reason had dreamt for.

    Better experiences noticed on OS X. Latency seems to be imperceptible over a local connection.

    Things are little messed up at some points because of the compression used. If you are forced to stick to anything below 540p, seems like you are gonna get disappointed with the quality of the image. Whatever the conditions, not at any point does the user feel unplayable.
