How It Works
The tool it self is very simple, the Remote Package Installer have an API that allow you put packages from URLs into your PS4 download queue, the DirectPackageInstaller just use that API to push to your PS4 the download URL, helping only to you preview the PKG that you’re installing.
With that said, the tool can do more than that as well, the PS4 have a very poor speed to download things from the web, but that is limited to WAN connections, when he is downloading something from LAN connection he can reach best speeds, with that in mind this tool have an automatically proxy server that your PS4 will automatically use to download your PKG, and with help of this proxy the poor speed will be basically solved.
The tool allow you to install pkgs from RAR as well, in this case the tool will work in a very similar way to the other existing ones, but with the advantage that everything is done simultaneously, while the file is downloaded from the internet, it is being decompressed to your disk temporarily and is sent to your PS4, in this scenario you don’t need to waste time extracting large PKGs or depending on your file manager downloads, doing the post-download file reconstruction, everything is done simultaneously saving a lot of time of your life.
The Segmented Download mode will start a background multithreaded download of the PKG to your computer and send to your PS4 at the same time, this should be faster than the Proxied Mode with the disadvantage of having to allocate the PKG on your HD.

I saw PS5 then got sad when it was PS4
Real-debris integration would make this epic.

not worked with compressed file on 1ficher he will add this next.
Das Auto
Anyone knows how to get the direct link to the pkg from 1ficher, so i can copy and paste in the direct package installer?
Maybe try jdownloader2 to parse them into direct links
yes in the fainal downlond riht clik on the bootn and copy adress.
You shoudn’t use the direct 1fichier link, put the download page link and the tool will do the dirty job
app2usb rocks
some web to find pkg .. gdrive?
So aside from waiting for hours/days for the pkg to download, you will need to have at least twice the hdd space on your PS4 (one for temporarily storing the pkg and the other for installation), now you’ll have to leave your PC on and also make sure there’s room on the PC’s hdd to cached the download too?
No, thanks. I’d still prefer the old school way of storing my fpkg on an external hdd and plug direct to my PS4.
No friend, he just alloc to your computer HDD, in the PS4 the download is almost like he does from PSN.
Also, even allocate the PKG in your computer is opptional, if you don’t want, you can download without,
but if you allow, the download should be faster than without.
FFS check the grammar! Parts of this just don’t make sense (The parts not copied and pasted) Never knew a PS4 was male? If it made sense it wouldn’t be such a bad thing, but this just makes crackdown 3 xbox’s posts look positively academic :p
