Is there any way to automatically set profiles for Remote Play settings depending on how the Deck is connected to the network?

I use remote play a fair bit for games that run poorly on Deck or would otherwise be a pain to manage, in both handheld and docked mode. When the deck is docked it’s connected to gigabit ethernet and a 4k TV so I set remote play to max out the capture resolution and bandwidth, but when connected to wifi I’m playing on the deck screen so restrict it to 720 / 40mbps. Changing this back and forth is a little annoying and I’d like to automate it if I can - ideally to trigger based on the type of network connection.

Is there a Decky plugin that could do this? I couldn’t see anything on a quick scroll through the store but I may have missed something. I’m aware of the remote play option to change desktop resolution to match the client but this causes issues with some games.

    Yes, depending where I am in the house. In the living room where the router is I can max everything and display latency is 10-15ms. However when I’m upstairs I get regular lag spikes and the lower bitrate helps with that.

    Of course, the real answer is that I need to resolve the underlying issue of weak wifi signal…
