I think it's for all playstation family and not just PS5. At least that was my understanding when they announced that Sony paid for all oodle kraken licenses for any game shipped with it. Oodle texture RDO is an avenue for exploration, but I haven't seen any developer talks to have an idea where to start. It's entirely possible that Sony mandates the usage of Oodle Kraken compression on all their titles (for new titles), as they can demand anything ultimately for their platform. So I definitely agree Sony could have the PS5 using as much of their technology available, and in a situation like Xbox, I don't see it being as likely because of their move to GDK, it just screams emphasis on reducing the barriers to supporting multiple platforms as opposed to single platform optimization.
FYI, the AUX port is used for the Playstation camera.
FYI the camera doesn't connect to the PSVR box at all, it connects directly to the PS4. The dual-connector cable on the front both connects to the PSVR headset as demonstrated in Sony's own PSVR setup video I posted above.
1 - PS4 to PSVR box HDMI cable.
2 - PS4 to PSVR box USB cable.
3 - PSVR box PSU cable.
4 - PSVR box to PSVR headset dual (HDMI/???) cable
The unnumbered cable is the HDMI cable from the PSVR box to the TV.

According to a tweet by a RAD employee it was only for PS5, and PS4 devs would need an additional license. However in the meantime we started seeing some PS4 games getting faster loading times due to using Kraken (e.g. TLoU Remake IIRC), so those initial conditions might have changed in the meantime.
The AUX port is a different shape. You can't plug the camera into it.
All of the games I know of that had the faster loading are first party titles. Sony may have a blanket license for all of it's studios.
You mean the PS4 games?
Actually, RDO encoders have been available for a while, here is one with all BC formats support and free of charge from BASIS - https://github.com/richgel999/bc7enc_rdo
this could very well explain why:
We don't have an issue of acceptance. If you're going to have a discussion here, you should do better than that.

http://richg42.blogspot.com/2016/08/rads-ground-breaking-lossless.htmlQuoting:
"According to the official graph by RAD Game Tools, Kraken has 29% higher compression ratio over ZLIB (used in PS4 and other platforms), and does it 3-5x faster"
End Quote.
I would not call 29% "pretty close".
All the questions you are making are correct; but why apply it against zlib but not have it apply against Kraken? They face identical challenges. Do you really think Kraken will always have 30% more compression ratio than zlib in every single scenario?
This. It's so confusing to me how people are viewing this game positively.
