PSP Firmware (v3.95) Coming Soon

[wraggster]

Just a quick update, we’ll be making PSP firmware update 3.95 available shortly. The update includes the following:

While playing PSone games on your PSP, you can now customize how the buttons are assigned by going to [Controller Settings] > [Assign Buttons] and select [Custom]. You can now quit Remote Play and choose to turn off your PS3 or leave it on after quitting. This is useful if you are performing a download and want to quit Remote Play, but still want your download to continue on the PS3. Select [Quit and Turn Off the PS3 System] or [Quit Without Turning Off the PS3 System] from [Quit Remote Play] when you press the HOME button on the PSP system.

Ack, give us what we want! Like the ability to play music in the browser, turn off the speaker (so only headphones work), better video codec support, etc!

Why wasn't custom button mapping for PS games in the original POPS?!

@above: What do you mean, turn off the speaker so only headphones work? Whenever I have headphones in, the speakers are immediately muted and headphones turned on. It's been like that with everything that ever had a headphone port.

Waiting for 3.999999 FW (all bull#$% i will still on 3.90)

I meant so if your listening to music via the headphones, if your headphones get pulled out no music would play via the speakers. The browser also needs work, where's the native video support?

Inching ever closer to 4.0, avoiding that leap of faith because there's no great revolutionary thing to add.
2.0 - internet browser
3.0 - pops
4.0 - ?

Sony needs to release 4.0 once and for all!

Just this make the update worth it.

Yeah, these are certainly a couple useful new tweaks of the features. Nothing groundbreaking though. If the master decides to give us 3.95 M33 I'd update. But waiting for 4.00 isn't the end of the world.

I was hoping for DivX or something. SONY seems really apprehensive about giving us too much freedom with video playback because they are still hoping to make some dough from Video UMD's.

You can watch DivX videos loaded onto the PS3 on the PSP using remote play but that's not the most efficient way to do it.

not really something interesting for me.
