VideoPSpy v2


Wow, I just made this for myself initially. I really had no idea how many people would be interested in this. I got alot of requests for this. This release handles all videos directories and does photos as well.


Summary
The purpose of this application is to enable you to keep private videos and/or pictures on your PSP as inconspicuously as possible. The problem with hiding your media directories is that it looks suspicious. Which is the same problem if you have a program that asks for a password. The solution is to create a harmless looking application which is in reality an application waiting for your password to unlock your videos and/or pictures.


Description
This is a very simple application which anyone could write. But since I couldn't find one quite like it, in my own fashion, I made one. The program will appear as a calculator application with the name "BASIC Calculator" in your XMB. The calculator program is functional, it's code is copied (with permission) from the calculator code included in Shine's Lua Player 0.20 with a few minor alterations. The only way to see your private media is to enter the correct code sequence into the calculator. The program swaps an alternate directory with the regular media directory, which can have the effect of replacing your regular media or just adding the hidden files to your regular media, depending on the organization of your memory card. Running the program again reverses the process, restoring your memory card to the state it was before.





Changes
Version 2 includes the option to run in various non-exclusive modes. (Note that version 1 ran in mode 1).
Mode 1 - swaps your videos from the \MP_ROOT\100MNV01 video directory
Mode 2 - swaps your videos from the \MP_ROOT\101ANV01 video directory
Mode 3 - swaps your videos from the \VIDEO directory
Mode 4 - swaps your photos


Install
1. Copy the program directories to your \PSP\GAME or \PSP\GAME150 folder, depending on your flavor of firmware and settings.
2. Mode 1 - Create a directory \MP_ROOT\100MNV02 and put the videos you wish to keep private in that folder.
Mode 2 - Create a directory \MP_ROOT\101ANV02 and put the videos you wish to keep private in that folder.
Mode 3 - Create a directory \VIDEO2 and put the videos you wish to keep private in that folder.
Mode 4 - Create a directory \PSP\PHOTO2 and put the pictures you wish to keep private in that folder.

3. Open the file \PSP\GAME\calculator\script.lua. The first two lines read
Constant1 = 4
Constant2 = 20
Change these values to the values you wish to use for your code. The first one is entered first, followed by the second. For example, the default setting requires you enter a 4, then 20.
4. The next three lines read
mode1 = true
mode2 = false
mode3 = false
mode4 = false
Set each mode you want to run to true and each mode you don't want to run to false.


Usage:
To unhide your private videos
1. Run the program
2. Enter the first code, for example "4"
3. Hit the "=" button
4. Enter the second code, for example "20"
5. Hit the "=" button a second time.
A message will flash on the screen "Cheat enabled" and the application will exit.
To hide your private videos
Run the program and enter the code sequence again.


Calculator usage
Enter Cross
Exit Triangle/Start


Thanks to
Shine & Nevyn for their Lua Player, Cool for his Lua Player mod, and wiki.ps2dev.org for having great reference material. Special thanks to Shine for letting me use his calculator code in this release. Any users who provided feedback and suggestions.

News from Craigix:

Hello everyone, if you could test this just before i make it public, I think is pretty solid now, I will still add in any suggestions though.

http://gbax.com/CraigAmp3.zip

---------------------------

New in 3.0:

Files are now listed alphabetically.

Random play now shuffles the playlist rather than jumping around it randomly, this
means you don't get repeats and you can see what is next.

You can now softscroll by holding up or down, it will get faster the longer you hold it.

Playlists are now saved with windows AND unix line endings (and no more 'x's)

New playlists are now saved into the DIR where you chose to create them rather the DIR
you were in when you chose to save them.

Message to say 'create new playlist with A button' if no lists are found.

Player no longer misses 2 songs when looping back to the start.

If a picture cannot be found for a song/album/artist but there is only one picture in
the current DIR it will assume that picture is the artwork and show it. ...

Let’s get this straight Eyeshield 21: Field Saikyou no Senshi Tachi is not Madden nor does it try to be a “professional” American football game. Eyeshield 21 Wii is something else entirely, it’s more like a party game with a football theme or an adventure game with football-like motion control. If you go in expecting realistic passing control or lots of plays Eyeshield 21 isn’t going to be your cup of tea. What you get instead is a deeper single player mode where you guide the Devil Bats through different matches. The scenario mode begins in a locker room where you play as Sena and you can walk up to objects to begin stories. The first mission is a tutorial that shows you the controls. After that you’re facing the Amino Cyborgs in a championship match.

A PERSONAL trainer is helping couch-potatoes to battle the bulge - by playing video games.

Zander Urquhart, 32, is thought to be the first fitness expert to adopt the Nintendo Wii as an exercise machine.

Four people at a time can exercise using theWii's unique motion-sensitive controller to mimic a tennis racket, baseball bat, golf club or boxing gloves.
University studies suggest players can burn 125 calories during a 15-minute session. Zander, from Glasgow, got the idea after seeing a client's son playing with the console. He said: "This five-year-old needed encouragement to do any exercise - but here he was running about for half-an-hour working up a sweat."
Zander initially targeted kids - but soon realised adults were just as keen. He said: "It's been great for adults coming back from injury and for OAPs."
Client Caroline Cassiday, 21, of Blantyre, Lanarkshire, said: "It really helped to tone me up."
A study by Liverpool John Moores University found that in an average 12.2-hour gaming week, Wii players can burn 1830 calories - shifting 27lb a year.
A Nintendo UK spokesman said: "We're not aware of anyone else doing this but it shows what the Wii can be used for."

BURNING CALORIES
According to statistics released by Food Magazine, calories burned using a Nintendo Wii for 15 to 20 minutes compare favourably with other forms of exercise.

Aerobic dancing - medium intensity, equivalent to jogging - 130
Cycling on flat ground - 125
Playing golf - 100
Playing tennis - 140
Playing football - 140 ...

The powers that be in the NYC political scene might not be happy with GTA IV's New York like setting, but that hasn't stopped Rockstar from touting their game on the streets of that illustrious city. And not just on the street, but on the entire side of a building!

Advertisements on the sides of buildings in New York are nothing new, one only need walk down almost any street to be bombarded with endless billboards. The irony of this particular one however, is inescapable. Let's see how long it stays up. ...

Brush up on your dart-throwing skills and start working on that essential beer belly - Sega Present Touch Darts is on its way to DS this summer.

Do you hand your DS on the wall and throw plastic darts at the touch screen? Unfortunately not (we'll be world-renowned games developers one day, we know it). Touch Darts, developed by Full Fat, displays a 3D dart board in the touch screen where you swipe the stylus upwards to throw the darts "with all the precision of a seasoned pro".

You can compete in world tournaments and play multiplayer mini games against friends. If only the game's title screen was the Bullseye theme tune, this would be the best darts game ever, (wink wink, developers).
