Good entertainment value!

So, now we can extract the firmware easily I take it -- just read the entire contents of lflash to a file. But flashing a 1.5 is still a ways off unfortunately as we can't run any code to perform the flash and it looks like its impossible to tweak a Sony update to include our own flash :(

Well, the motivation behind my response was mostly that I don't think its justifiable to ban for something like that.

Sure you can screw up many things randomly, but the chance of finding a needle in a haystack when you are blind and senseless... well, you get the picture...

And why not the USB port?

Or doooom!

huh? speak in english. Anyway well pretty much your screwed. but! if you want to get a new psp then do this. wait for it to come out down there, then go to walmart, buy a psp with cash, swap them then return it. walmart employees dont really check the product out they just want to see its there. yo...

Useless.

i don't know if you guys have figured anything out, but im pretty good at decrypting code, so if you gave me the encrypted code from one file on the v1.0 version, and encrypted code from the same file that should have the same contents from v1.5, i might be able to write a program or just figure ou...

"Revisions to strengthen security"

I don't think any devs are installing that one -- I know I'm not.

Interesting find... dictionary files of some sort? Maybe they are just test files for a coming dictionary feature.

Its the encryption keys! lol

Flash isn't really easy to write too, blocks get erased and written again.

In this case it is, since its a filesystem... assuming its writable, of course.

Sounds good but, what if the encryption used for game saves is not the same used for executables...?

Yes, nem, source code please!

List how much you want for it here, get someone that says yes, then post a buy it now link via eBay.

Now we just need the actual Super Mario World on the PSP ;-)

It would be easiest to first test this by trying to copy data off the memory stick to itself.

it was black and white and had to gfx..

What does that mean?

Can you clarify?

ta

Their demo was in black and white w/o graphics, supposedly.

I take it we can now use this to find the keys or a way to run on 1.5. Also, it should be possible to dump the 1.0 firmware (though it may not be very useful).

Jeez, why doesn't Sony just support this! They'd get a lot more credit and support that way -- this way they just lose.

I really don't think he's going to post that here.

Yes its normal, rest of the space is used up by the filesystem.

No real problems with mine, but just yesterday I did notice it makes a crunchy noise... but I guess it could just be from being new (I'm not a big gamer).

Yes, but this is ffmpegX... but I wonder if there is a parameter for ffmpeg itself to add a track when there isn't one, ie. force an audio track. Because from what I can tell, there is no reliable way to check whether a particular video has an audio track or not (non-interactively) :-/

They are pretty helpful with coming up with solutions.

Ack... looks like I have to wait 2 days to post. Any chance you could paste my post into there? It would be much appreciated if possible :)

Thanks,

Yes, I understand it does not play videos without audio, but I need an automated way to add that audio track. I'll try the ffmpeg forums.

Does anyone know how to get ffmpeg to convert a video without an audio track to PSP format successfully? The problem is it converts, looks fine, but on the PSP you get the "black screen" problem, and have to restart the PSP. Anyone been able to get around this using some ffmpeg options or ...

When you try to power the system off (put it to sleep, that is), the Power light now blinks, this is a nice additing, as before i was never sure whether I pushed the switch far enough to turn off the unit until it actually turned off, which took some time. Which brings me to another thing: looks lik...

The hack still works. Don't know if any other resolutions are enabled... anyone check yet?

My movie icons are not there :-/

s-n-g's?

Also found the little japanese bug in the english text entry screen is fixed.

It changes more than it lists...

Did the PSP logo splash screen on startup fade out before when a game was about to boot? I think that is new.

Movie icons are no longer showing on my PSP, only the generic video icon.

Photos seem to have changed icon-wise as well.

Anything else anyone notice?
