Step 1: Flash Gentoo64 Lite Image to an SD card
Download Gentoo64 Lite from their Github
(github.com/sak...)
You can use the Raspberry Pi Imager to flash
(www.raspberryp...)
Once you have Gentoo64 up and running, type "nmtui" into the command line prompt to setup wifi.
The next steps will have a lot of command line inputs if you're new to Pi projects or Linux. I suggest you access the Pi through SSH using an SSH client such as (mobaxterm.moba...)
Step 2: Compile and Install SDL2 on Pi
(github.com/mid...)
You can follow the instructions above if you know your way around Linux, else you can copy paste the lines below in your SSH session
wget www.libsdl.org... &&
wget www.libsdl.org... &&
wget www.libsdl.org... &&
mkdir -p $HOME/sdl2_sources && tar xvf SDL2-2.0.14.tar.gz -C $HOME/sdl2_sources && tar xvf SDL2_ttf-2.0.15.tar.gz -C $HOME/sdl2_sources && tar xvf SDL2_image-2.0.5.tar.gz -C $HOME/sdl2_sources && sudo emerge -C media-libs/libsdl2
the line below will take a while, have a coffee break while it's compiling and installing
cd $HOME/sdl2_sources/SDL2-2.0.14 &&
./configure --enable-video-kmsdrm --disable-video-rpi &&
make -j4 && sudo make install &&
cd $HOME/sdl2_sources/SDL2_image-2.0.5 &&
./configure && make -j4 && sudo make install &&
cd $HOME/sdl2_sources/SDL2_ttf-2.0.15 &&
./configure && make -j4 && sudo make install
use line below in each session before launching SysDVR, or include in a bash script
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/lib"
Step 3: Install .NET 5.0 on Pi
(dotnet.microso...)
wget download.visua... &&
mkdir -p $HOME/dotnet && tar zxf dotnet-sdk-5.0.202-linux-arm64.tar.gz -C $HOME/dotnet &&
export DOTNET_ROOT=$HOME/dotnet &&
export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/dotnet &&
sudo ln -s /home/demouser/dotnet/dotnet /usr/bin/dotnet
Step 4: Extract SysDVR to Pi and Switch
(github.com/exe...)
Follow the instructions on their github to extract and install.

How to setup sysDVR (USB only) for Nintendo Switch Lite on Laptop Win
I love these amateur tech dudes finding ways to do stuff like this lol. I just knew someone found a way haha.
I don’t understand why Nintendo can’t or won’t essentially sell this, a dock you can buy separately for the lite. I understood not including it to keep the price low since that’s one of the lite’s selling points, but to not have the option period for a device called the switch is just such a let down
They purposefully removed the video output chip that costs next to nothing
@@vijayeville8704 man…
You switch from having money to being broke
Because marketing and target audience
So people would also buy the normal switch or the OLED. Why would anyone buy the switch if the lite is dockable
I mean I didnt plan on hacking a new console (only did that to my 3ds recently) but just seeing people find a workaround and showing how its done is so cool!
This is so cool. I see 0 delay.
Awesome job on this man. I'm getting a switch lite as a present for myself, I already have a Pi, and I cant wait to do this!
literally at least 90ms to 120ms delay (you can easily tell by skipping ahead 1 frame at a time in the video), that is worse than playing a game on a really bad TV with Game Mode disabled.
this is about 2x worse than streaming a game over PSnow
you need a 170$ chip to do this
U got an update m8?
Most people are fine with that horrendous input latency + stream delay, but this isnt cool or awesome. The dock cant be replaced with streaming tricks, ever...
@@Retr0GameR this is awesome and cool
I was waiting for years.
And now i can finally tell "It was worth it"
I think VitaDock+ supports the Switch Lite with SysDVR as well. It's a custom Raspbian distro and you can skip everything about gentoo, compiling stuff, and programming altogether.
It has super easy setup.
Can U send some link showing how it works? I'm a FB gaming creator and I need send video to a video caster .
Pffftt the silence speaks volumes
Can you explain cuz I've looked everywhere to no avail
Thanks for making this video! I'm too afraid to jailbreak my Switch while Nintendo still cares about the system, as I'm afraid to be banned or bricked by an update or whatever, but I'll probably be coming back to this in a few years when it's at the end of its lifespan.
I’m going to take the plunge and go for it. I have done extensive research, and I am unable to find even a single person who has been banned as long as the only games you attempt to play online are legit… as long as you dont try to play any copied games online, you are set.
So in a few months; got it
200 subscribers only after 4 months this video uploaded?
You deserved more! Keep it up!
“All you need is a jailbroken Switch”
well yes, thanks, this didn’t solve my problem ...
Jailbreak your switch my dude. It's not that hard tbh, and you can find tons of resources around, specially here in youtube!
Jailbreaking is not about piracy or something like that, is a legal process, and allows you to do some thins with you switch that nintendo will sadly never provide
@@sebastiangudino9377 Switch Lite can only be jailbroken with modifying hardware with a modchip which is
a) not easy to install by yourself
b) not being produced any longer
it's easy, just sell your switch and buy the jailbroken one, or buy the spare part sx core and installed on your own if you that savage 😂
@@sebastiangudino9377 A Switch Lite is $200 + paying a guy to micro solder is an extra $70
@@jonathan0o0dawKins It's kinda unfair to add the 200$ of the switch to the price, since in order to jailbreak your switch one might asume you have a switch
So I guess it’s possible for Nintendo to release a dock for the lite? Cmon Nintendo, it’s easy money
We can only wish 🙏😜
There is no video out chip in the console.
@Nicklin As this video has proven, there are other ways to get video out 😉
You just need to get the data out. The chip on the dock can do the video output to tv. But I think the firmware need to be updated.
they won't do It because if the switch lite docks than the og switch is gonna have less sales. They want that extra $100.
Nice Job on the video. Just wanted you to know I appreciate the content and keep it up.
Thanks for the support 😄
This surely a next lvl complicated solution. Maybe we just better buy Switch complete.
So there is no way to do that without a hacked Switch Lite, which requires a hardware modification? I would love to do this but finding and putting that modchip by yourself is not easy...
im actually tryna do this, its lowkey fun its like legos. trust the process
@@prod.yoshah1683 did you have a sucessuful?
I love the small form factor of the lite if only it would get an oled screen, improved battery, and dock or stream/mirror capability i would even pay an oled price for one
that voice and the background music, if not for the toy, would be mistaken for a 90s porn intro. you have a gift.
I'm curious, what's the output resolution after you "dock" it? Is there a jailbreak tweak that lets the Switch Lite enter a docked mode?
The switch lite doesn't have the tech to properly dock, it was removed to lower prices :/
He stated towards the end of the video that it's only 720p@30fps unfortunately :(. I'm sure with more programming the Pi could upscale it to 1080p though, no way around the 30fps cap though really.
as i was fear of... it's expensive way (Switch classic is cheaper than a switch lite + pi 4) and you go 720p who is absolutly not comparable to 1080p (the delta on 55' Tv is hudge ... believe me) and 4k tv have the best 4k resample on 1080p source !!
Very good first video! Thank for sharing your project
The dock is absolutely awesome. Except for the jailbreaking part. Sigh.
You are a genius man! Thanks a lot you've got a new subscriber
Could u do one for the pc one I’d really like also great vid 🤗
Glad you liked it, maybe I'll do one in the future 😉
@@QualityofLifeTECH can’t wait for that !
I know, with the time people will find more and better ways to play on tv
Wouldn't this be possible, cheaper and simpler with a Targus displaylink?
very cool. I get so annoyed with input latency though that I personally wouldn't bother.
Finally somebody did it!
does it have to use a Raspberry Pi when connecting to a laptop or not?
no, fart-for-brains
If you jailbreak your Switch can you play online?
I have a question related to your DS4, where did you buy the xbox buttons for the DS4? I looked online but did not find any.
how did you stream your switch to your pc？
Using SysDVR 😄
i don't understand how you did the last step when you installed sysdvr, How do you get this screen including usp and tcp choices?? Please I need you to respond
If somebody knows please help me
Is there anyway for me to connect my switch lite to my laptop?? I really want to record my gameplay or better yet stream it
not useful but could you let me know if you find a way to do it?
Can you explain how you jail broke your switch lite? If I am understanding correctly, the switch needs to be jailbroken first before you can run sysdvr, right? But I can't find an explanation on how to jailbreak a switch Lite.
Specifically, I can’t find a way to jailbreak a switch lite because there is not a way to RCM mode. So how did you do it?
needs hardware modification
Dude... THANK YOU!
Dude you just saved my life because I just posted in a group for the switch telling people that it is very possible to do this because the Nintendo switch lite does have a C port just like the original and they're telling me it doesn't and it's impossible to put it to the TV and that's not true because you totally can even if you didn't do it the way you just did it you literally could buy the chip that is needed if you could find it and put it in the switch lite because it has the slot there for it but that would cost a hell of a lot of money most likely which is why Nintendo cut corners
This is awesome!
do u have a video for pc too?
or is it the same process
This is amazing literally what I always wanted
My idea is to add in software drivers in an update for a dock with nvme upgrade for buffers and anything of the like and sodimm ram upgrade with enough room for 2 or more channel memory that works in conjunction with the graphics card (so to speak) directly as though there one and if asking even better , with the main board acting as praphics card, there should be options for upgrade down the road for difrent types of onboard graphics solutions, graphics card like upgrades again "so to speak"
190k views for first YT video! congrats
can you use sysdvr on you switch lite to display on your pc with out moding it??
My question is, where did you get the abxy buttons for your PS4 controller ? It looks so sick honestly. Would be perfect since that's the controller I use on my PC.
os cara é brabo mesmo mano
I'm so going to do this looks awesome
No you won't lmao
@@teudunngie4039how do you know what bro is capable of? Weird
Hey i know i know its been two years since this video but i want to ask if i can use one of those clones in raspberry pi instead cz they are cheaper
Good question.
I had a different idea involving the raspberry pi as well: use a webcam and point it to the switch, then output that to a TV 😂
No jailbreaks, simple software, but poor latency 😂
I was looking for a way to play Tears of the Kingdom in Wii U Breath of the Wild style
This is so cool I did this and it awsome
Great it works out well 😁
@@QualityofLifeTECH hi there I have a cousin who own a switch light he need help setting up
Have you been able to program everything? I have some troubles and I wish I could have some help.
Feel free to post your questions here
this definitely was an amazing video, if only the pi4 wasn't like $160....
pi 4 is so expensive ??? My god this trick is totaly useless so !!
But how do I jailbreak the Nintendo switch lite???
Yeah I thought you could use an extra sub or 2 thx for the help know I'll keep watching
Lol its me
Esta super genial gracias, seria interesante utilizar este metodo en mi pc conectado al televisor 👍🏻🎮
Nice bro, I have a switch normal but are with hack, now I want a switch lite only for games online, like a animal crossing and monster hunter, I will try this tutorial, thank so much 💪🤟😎
So If I just want to streaming in twitch can do it with a Nintendo Switch Lite by using a USB cable and the SysDVR? can you please confirm it will be a great video if you do a tutorial only for that if is possible
you need to jailbreak your switch lite
and that cannot be done without modifying hardware
@@Ipauler umm Thank you! You did it? Is that a risk to get banned?
@@RealQualityInc you can jailbreak your switch and still play online just be careful I'd recommend looking up a few videos about this but it's fairly simple.
that ps4 controller is so cursed I love it
Have you tested this with a pi zero or zero w? You could pretty much embed that into a dock if that worked.
It seems weird that Nintendo doesn't offer the feature. It wouldn't cost them anything
I think it's mainly to justify the "Lite" part. It would've been easy and add very little cost to actually implement it. The motherboard is probably identical to the full Switch, they just removed the video-out function.
thanks subbed
How to setup sysDVR (USB only) for Nintendo Switch Lite on Laptop Win
you think this is possible with a 3b+? I just found mine
Did you try it with rb 3b+?
@@emmanuelarkanoid7398 I wasn't able to find the comparable software 😩
how do i connect my switch lite with sysdvr? that would be enough, thanks
Is it possible to swap the usbc to one that outputs to tv?
Even if they remove the chips it's still possible because it uses a USB type c 3.1 gen 2 port which connects to the main processor to output video the chips nintendo removed are responsible to communicate with the dock to make the screen go blank and tell the switch that it's docked so it can display output
Actually you're wrong the switch light supports the same exact USB c Port that the original and the other switch devices used USB 3.2
im more curious on how you swapped abxy buttons onto the ps4 controller, i would like to do that to my ps4 controller too
Have other tech RUclipsrs confirmed that this is possible? It sounds too good to be true.
Is there any way you can post about that UDEV rules or something that you put on the USB please ? Thanks
i think i’ll just use an old laptop i have laying around
1:14 Wii U is back!
EPIC FIRST VID
Would this be possible on a handheld emulator like the odroid go super or advanced? They run a multitude of firmwares.
So how do you keep the switch absolutely still while filming and using the switch controls? And isn’t it a pain having the phone between you and the switch while playing?
Am I missing something?
Everyone is saying what an amazing idea this is. ..???
Can you please do a full tutorial. This is really hard to follow
Very good video and very usefull, I think you are a genious! My like for you. But If you compare the sum of prizes of Switch lite and Rapsberry Pi 4, the cost is higher than a Nintendo Switch full. I think it is a good solution, but very expensive for someone that buy a Switch Lite for his low cost.
Nintendo says you can not Dock your switch lite hacker says yes I can look
It must be raspberry Pi 4? Can it be first version?
I can just do it with my laptop and conect it to the screen?
That's right, much easier to do, though less portable 😄
This would be so good for Mario Maker
Now that pi 5’s are available would that be better?
Super cool but including all the prices with pi usb and dock and of course the switch lite it's $295 and a normal switch is $300 still very cool tho something i have never seen before
Do we need to jailbreak?
Yes you need to jailbreak 😊
Nice video. Can i use raspberry pi 3b+?
Would you be able to use a raspberry pi 2b? I have that laying around would I be able to do the usb c connection instead of wifi?
You could basically do the same thing using Parsec too. without the need for a Pi.
Parsec only works on a Switch through a capture card plugged into the dock, and a adapter so you can connect a controller far away
Switch lite price + raspberry pi price = Normal switch
And skip all pain and wasted time
+ the added cost of the modchip (which a this point cost about as much as a lite itself) needed to run cfw and sysdvr in the first place. Not to mention the installation of said chip (which requires soldering to the cpu of the console)
smh some people already brought a lite time ago.
Some ppl already have RPi and Lite, it cost them nothing. And some ppl love to tinker with the hardware/software. It`s not always about the money but knowledge and skills you get by tweaking stuff.
How did you make it start by itself?
You can set udev rules to launch a script to run SysDVR when a USB is inserted. Let me know if you need help setting it up.
@@QualityofLifeTECH Can I run sysDVR running without a modded switch lite?
I just want the Nintendo Switch Lite to record my gameplay, and, no, not the 30-second recording/video capture feature.
I think we can replace the screen on the switch lite with the hdmi connection.
the switch lite will turn into dock and have no screen.
Welcome to the platform I guess welcome to the tube cool hack have a great day
Do you sell these docks pre installed?
They can't mass produce such a product
Shlok Shah ???? Who talked about mass production
Do you think the 8gb pi would make a difference over the 4gb
The million dollar question is: can you play online in this way
Sorry for the bother how do you connect your Nintendo lite to your window though? Can you tell me about it I not very smart about it 😅
No offence just question I new to this
at this point you should have got a regular switch haha
So, the pi and the switch communicate over wifi?
Is it still worth it on US? In my country, it's cheaper to get a OLED than a Lite AND a Raspberry Pi 5. lol (4 for some reason is more expensive)
could this be connected to a capture card instead of a tv? so i can play on the lite screen and stream on twitch at the same time? thats my dream that nintendo destroyed. for me switch was a step back from the wii u. even with the big switch you cant stream handheld... its so stupid.
Can the inside of the switch lite be modded to be docked with the official dock?
I have question
If connect switch with sysdvr via USB . How I can charge for NS . Pls help me
The most important question : do you get 1080 on TV or it's a stream of the 720p of the lite switch screen performance ?
This is the info number one to give :) as Switch classic and OLED docked give a 1080p most of the time on TV
What is the name of that japan/samurai RPG you were playing????
is it possible to stream it to a pc without modding it
