Dark Alex is now working on v3.03OE-B of his custom firmware, heres the info about it:
Anyway I told him to remain vague on the release date and more than everything on the upcomming features.
Btw about those people who use to play videos on their psps will be happily surprised, but I wont say more
P.S. No, nothing regarding pops improvements on this release, sorry for the ones expecting those.
Man I hope that means multiple video format support. It would be nice to not have to convert all the time. Or be able to use the best format.Quote:

I dont even watch video as I used too on my PSP anymore ...
I hope thats not just it...Quote:

i guess hes trying to out perform sony at this point. right on.
Yeah, since I found PIMPstreamer, I haven't watched a video on my PSP... that wasn't streamed from my computer.
if dark_alex makes it, i'm upgrading :P
I wonder if Dark_Alex is ever going to add DAX support, along with more No-UMD compatilbility soon.
Overall, I can't wait to see what other feature are going to come out of this new release.
what about a nethosts and usbhost integrated in the XMB id like to see that, maybe we'd be able to play streamed iso's and videos, like ir shell but more compatible, anyways good luck to you dark alex, you are the best in the psp homebrew community... we really do love you!!! gotta love DAX
The expansion of formats will be welcomed in my psp.
Yup, the new feature regarding VIDEO is the ability to play 480x272 full resolution AVC MP4 videos. This is a great feature. Something I have been wanting since I bought my PSP on launch day almost 2 years ago.
Dark_AleX gives us what SONY refuses to due to greed. SONY wanted us to spend a fortune on UMD Videos instead of letting us use the PSP the way it should be used regarding MP4 playback.
I am really psyched about this feature. I know some people may not care that much but it is a really great addition.
Now does anyone recommend a program for converting AVC videos at 480x272?
Could you just manually edit the resolution in PSPVideo9? Or are there better apps for doing that job?
oh boy, oh boy! Any improvement is a good improvement.
sounds cool, cant wait
Oh man... Don't tell me... DivX/Xvid...:eek:Quote:

No it won't be too much for the CPU, because there is already a homebrew called PSPlayerMT hat will player Xvid on the PSP.Quote:

Also about this feature it's ok I guess I mean regardless I had to convert all my vids to pmp avc and having full res already on the xmb wont change a thing for me because all my vids are xvid/divx anyways so I still got to convert. Im really hoping it's xvid/divx support but I really doubt it, to me it looks like it's more about unlocking what sony hides away from us than adding onto stuff like xvid/divx support but hope he proves me wrong.
That probably sums it up perfectly. That seems to be a main focus of Dark_AleX. I prefer it that way because once you start adding major stuff or dramatically modifying the firmware, things could get broken.Quote:

i really want to get this.....but read my sig :)
I'm not sure if it's a question of divX being superior, more just easier to find. 95% of video available for download on the internet is in DivX/MPeg4 format.
It would be great if you didn't need to convert this. DivX on the PSP would rock.
Anyway, it's all just speculation for now, I'm sure it'll be great no matter what it is! Can't wait!
:)
Don't forget the conversion. It takes time too...Quote:

I'd also like the RM codec to be supported. I'd love to take my anime on the go requiring small memory stick space and no conversion required :p
please dont ignore me im not a noob, this iz serious!!!!
If your didn't have recovery mode on your memory stick then your gunna have to get it on there somehow.
You might need to by a memory card reader and then push recovery mode from the 3.02 OE release onto it from your computer.
Then just hold onto the R trigger on startup and hope for the best.
Goodluck.
Kvonx, holding R when you boot does nothing at all?

The ability to watch Xvid and Divx is already available for PSP users with PSPlayerMT. personally, the Xvid/Divx playback won't bother me too much because of the difference in file size.
Sorry but you have bricked your PSP, the readme for CIntro is quite clear that it is for 3.02OEB, a 3.03OE version has only just been released.Quote:

Reason for brick = "the 3.02OE-B vshmain.prx in module is different from 3.03OE-A's so the program hex edits values that arent ment to be edited as they are in different places.
aka. brick."
I won't buy any video UMDs if there are crappy conversions like this: http://www.yaronet.com/mirari/get.php?c=9YBs
(Austin Powers, The spy who shagged me)
Video unlocked to fullscreen....that's what it is...no more 320x240 limitations
Sounds kool, This whole video prospect is exciting
i don't care if it's a minor or major update,all i know is that i'll put on my psp anything that's made by Dark_AleX!! I <3 You DAX!!
same
"Btw about those people who use to play videos on their psps will be happily surprised, but I wont say more "
----------------------------------------------------------------
i think those who doesnt will start to.!!!
It would be nice to just drop my windows media files from my pc onto the psp without the need to convert them! or even the ability to place your movies on the psp without having to rename them all to the psps format.
Wow this is exciting, I cant wait, ive got 3.03 A, its works great with all my legit backups, a fun game works well on the psp is Gex 3.
You don't have to that now. As long as the file extension and the coding is correct, the videos mo longer have to be M4Vxxxxx or MAQxxxxx.Quote:
