it streams for me but freezes after a while and streams slow but I think it's my pc's fault
Has anyone streamed any videos yet?
I'm having problems with the usbhost, someone knows how to get it to work????:confused:
ok i cannot find out wth is going on here lol.... i have searched the release site, psp-hacks, dcemu, pspupdates..... no one has a guide on how to set up the wifi streaming.... not even the read me lol
could someone PLZZZ shed some light
I hope ISO loading is NEVER a possibility with this program.
Sony could easily shut down every site pertaining to homebrew because of 'piracy' concerns. What prevents piracy from being totally widespread in the PSP scene is the fact that memsticks have such limited space that its fruitless to pirate games and play them on the PSP.
The instant we get ISO streaming, I gurantee you, Sony's stance on homebrew, which is now: "We'll stop when we can but we wont go too far out of our way." will become "See you in court."
With that aside, now to the meat of my post.
IRShell still sucks. It is not user friendly in the slightest and isn't SCE compatible(instant turn off).
Running music while playing homebrew and UMDs is cool. But if using the damn program requires consulting the Help menu every 5 minutes, then what the hell good is it?
Give me a desktop with icons and then, perhaps, IRShell will remain on my PSP for more than 20 minutes.
Heres my stance on it... I kind of agree with f9z dark on the crappy GUI, other than that its a killer app.. and festizzio, I streamed all the MP4 video I have on my HD and it looks freakin awesome considering what its doing... a little laggy with the sound but a quick pause takes care if that... whcih is more than I can say for PiMPstreamer.
I love this appp I wish someone would contact ahman and make a better gui for it
How did you stream them? I can't figure it out at all.:confused: Also, does it work for AVC mp4s?Quote:

that was kinda harsh....
now if i can just get it to work.
lol
I get very frustrated with this app whenever I try to use it. It just isn't really geared for the person looking for an app with an easy learning curve.
It has a lot of killer features, which is why I downloaded it again. But I try and do a simple task and it bites me in the ass.
It's great for what it offers, but I just get so fed up with it.
do you need a pc to stream it
Btw I already set it up so I can view every file on my computer from my PSP through WiFi, I streamed some mp3s and photos, but whenever I go to select an mp4, nothing happens. How does it work?
I've pretty much got all of it figured out. It's very easy, actually, but might seem overwhelming at first glance.
I see all of you are having trouble with the streaming MP4s. First off AVC MP4s will NOT work! This is because when you emulate the XMB it is a 1.5 XMB, and thus can't play AVC videos. Also, you CANNOT stream an MP4 just by clicking on it. You have to emulate the XMB first. Here's how to do the whole thing by using nethost (as opposed to usbhost):
Download and extract "Network Host File System Server (Windows Version)" on the download page of http://ahman.co.nr.
Put the nethostfs.exe and the cygwin1.dll from the download in the folder that the MP4 you want to stream is.
Now, here is the important step. Inside the folder that you just put the 2 files from the download in, you have to make a new folder called MP_ROOT. Inside the MP_ROOT folder, make another new folder called 100MNV01. Put your MP4 in this folder (MP_ROOT/100MNV01), and make sure it is named correctly (M4V#####.MP4 where the #s are any numbers).
Go back to the directory that USED to have your MP4 and now has the 2 files from the download as well as the MP_ROOT directory. Open nethostfs.exe and just leave it there.
Now you're done with the PC setup. On the PSP, load iR Shell, and go to the Configurator (R+Start). Go to the one that's asking for your net host IP Address and change it to your local IP. (You're local IP can be found by going to Start-->Run and then typing command. Then in the command prompt, type ipconfig, and find the one that says IP Address--that's your local IP).
Then make sure you are using the right connection in the next configurator option (1 is your first connection, 2 is second, etc.) Save and exit the configurator by pressing O.
Now push L+Analog-Down to connect to the nethost. Once the WiFi initiates, push L+Analog-Right. That will switch your net host to now be your ms0:/ (your memory stick). Now push L+D-pad-Up to emulate the XMB.
Head over to videos and your video should be there if you did everything correctly.
I hope this helps people who were having trouble streaming their MP4s over WiFi.
I have NOT tried USB host, so I can't help you there. However, it should be pretty much the same, but you have to use different key combinations which can be found in the ReadMe.
If you guys are still having problems, or have other questions, please tell me, and I will try to help out.
Thanks for that, I'm trying it out now.:D
no, you can float your psp down a stream of water.Quote:

PPL!! stop telling us that it works for you and start explaining HOW it works for you..... half the ppl here dont know wut the bleep to do lol
there ARE no FAQs regarding streaming, even on the creator's website and on his forums
Thank you, you guys! I love IR Shell!
Im using it now as my defult OS!
Holy! Thank you this is sweet. It was worth the 2.0 to 1.5 downgrade! So what if i cant play GTA, his is way cooler. Now i dont need that silly 4 GB HDD:D
Did you read my post? Also, what exactly are you having trouble with? My post above is just for streaming .mp4s, but it also covers how to get the nethost setup. Streaming everything else is pretty easy (you just push X on it, assuming it is playable by iR Shell or one of the plugins).Quote:

u should just get devhook and then u can play gta
this is where i found out how to get it to work
http://pspupdates.qj.net/iR-Shell-1-...g/49/aid/56687
maybe i didnt explain my self can you stream it from a hard drive some body becuz im gettin a 1.5 if u can
yeah u can but it lags allot
does it lag on music or homebrew
Okay, I love absolutely love this. I have never been this entusiastic about any homebrew (except the n64 emus and PSPDDR) I have been playing with this for over 4 hours now, I love the usbhost and nethost features. Finally I can stream all my media to my psp. Definitely cannot wait for the next release. Hopefully some iso stream support? ;) Thx to all who worked on this wonderful project.
wifi lags on music havnt tried homebrew, well only 2 but fastlaoder doesnt work it wouldnt even load but umd emulator opened but it only read the iso from the ms
im sorry for takin up space and time but im about to make a big decision for me does music and homebrew lag from a usb connection and could i use an external hard drive to stream and agian im sorry but i need this to be cristal clear before i throw away any of my money for a 1.5 psp:D ill be so happy if it does becuz im gettin an externall hard drive for my laptop that would fit the psp nicely:cool:
dtothabreezy, i'm pretty sure that you need to run a program on the device u want to stream from to enable the usb hosting. so if you want to do it straight from the external drive, ie no computer involved it won't work. If you hook the external up to your laptop and run the program on it you shouldn't have any problems.
This app is pretty sweet, only messed with the basic functions and I think its pretty damn cool. At first you have to hit start a bit, to see the control scheme, but once you learn the controls it has good controlability.
Tested the USB thing with some mp3s, THAT is cool, I see a lot of future in this... thank you for making this thing, THANK YOU, can't wait to see what the next version has in store for us, ISO loading hopefully... here's hoping,
special request, that it loads wipeout pure, I've tried umd emulator 0.8c, and some other loader, but to no avail, any tips?
Theres FAR too much talk about I*Os in this thread - you'll get it shut down :mad: (Read the rules!!)
Anyway.. What a wicked app! :D I can sit in my front room with 250GB at my disposal :)

ms0:

->GAME
->MUSIC
->PHOTO
MP_ROOT
And then i put the exe and the other file in the ms0 Root folder. When on reboot for memory card it just says 0KB free, and nothing is listed under the Menus. Help?
I also cannot get the xmb to play anything streamed, either through wifi or usb. I have everything else working, all apps and media streaming fine through irShell and i understand the mounting to ms0: part, but i cannot see any files in xmb when i reboot. I have set up a folder that is basicaly a clone of a memstick like most people probaly have, so im not sure why it cant see them. Also, as someone stated above, it says that there is 0 free space and i cannot access the memstick for anything once it has rebooted to xmb.
Amazing app though, has been fun learning to use it and i cannot wait to see any futher development for it. I have avoided the shells up until now, but this is easily one of the best apps for the psp.
Thanks for the release to all involved and please keep up the amazing work.
Yeah you all know what sony is doing couse you are the master of sony himself or what? Why do people allways state things like these: sony will react this way bla bla bla... you all dont know. I dont know too, nobody knows except the people from sony. So stop this: "I know how the business works, i can tell the future". You obviously dont know!Quote:

And IRShell is the best shell on the market. Couse it doesnt have a desktop and a mouse and all this crap that a PSP doesnt really need. If you would use it for more than 20 minutes, the controlls would go very easily to handle. Couse its a wellthought system that just need a little practice. I love it becouse its not that overloaded. I even use the basic skin. couse its perfect in my opinion!
P.S: And for those dont getting it to work, look carefully at ahmans site. Look in the beta section for example couse their this feature was used for the first time and people talk about getting it to work.
Short version: Set the IP of your home pc in IRShell configurator, start the nethost app on your pc and you are ready to go. Its easy!!
Sorry for beein a little rude but those kind of posts make me angry :D
I think it's nice to use too.. especially since you can just press 'start' and the thing has instructions... and about piracy being 'fruitless' because the memory stick size.... aren't the images only around 400megs each? ... so I think people just choose not to use downloaded images, rather than being unable
Mine does not appear to do this. When I run the net host I can connect and infact see all the files from my PC under "nethost0:/" . I have in fact streamed some music and pictures fine. However when I launch XMB from IRShell and then go to Videos I have none listed.Quote:

Any ideas? I assume since IRShell can read my hosts NTFS structure that XMB can as well?
Also anyone know if it's possible to play MPEG encoded movies over the WiFi with this without having to convert to PMP?
sorry bout the i$o talk, but if we don't request it.... we may not get it,
n e way... got wipeout pure to run, what a sweeet game.... so nm
u ppl are so bad
::holds back a secret::
I think I see the step I missed now. After connecting to the host
If running homebrew via PC, press: L+Analog-RIGHT This redirects AKA mounts your nethost0:/ drive as ms0:/
thanks for the link to those directions J Sims
