iR Shell 1.6 Released

**Video_freak** · June 23rd, 2006, 17:24

i dont know why, i cant get the streaming to work either. i typed in my ip address, i switched the xmb network nethost to 1, and i launched the nethostfs.exe app on my comp, but when i try to connect in the iR shell, it says "Initiating WiFi, Pls Wait..." for less than a second and the wifi light doesnt even turn on. it then displays "Error: Can't connect to Network Host" i dont know why its working for some, but not others. any help would be appreciated (yes, i did look at the tutorial on pspupdates.com)

ps. i was wondering if this was happening to everyone, but whenever i save my settings in iR Shell, it tries to reboot, but i get this "The game could not be started. (80020321)" message. i have a folder full of corrupted files on my psp that i cant delete. maybe thats the reason. i guess i'll have to reformat the mem stick...

1x already told people to can the iso talk

look iso talk is a violation of the rules. and 1x has given people more then there fair share of warnings.
Future mention os iso-anything (weather it be to correct somone else or just in general) will result in bad things man.. bad bad things..

i formated my memory stick but i still cant get the streaming to work. i also still get that error message when iR Shell tries to reboot

okay....i feel pretty retarted right now. i use devhook, so my wlan connections were on the 2.5 firmware on my memory stick. i had no connections on my original flash psp firmware, so thats why it wasnt working. i got it working now so i'm happy, but i feel really retarted....

I still cant get it to work for me. on my desktop i have a folder called PSP

PSP
->PSP
-->GAME
-->MUSIC
->MP_ROOT

In the first PSP Folder i also have the 2 net files. Darn, im so mad

i agree with it about not being to user friendly. maybe if it was more like the psp's main menu it would be better. or if by pushing square you can also get to the music directory. i dont know this is a great release and im just putting some ideas out there. but i get tired of having to look at the help menu constantly

thanks for the link to those directions J Sims

That is in my little guide, as well:

People who are having trouble, I'm pretty sure you can only stream MP4 videos from the emulated XMB, so making PSP/MUSIC, PSP/PHOTO, PSP/GAME, etc. will not make it able to stream via the XMB. The reason I think you can't stream those is because iR Shell can already play them, so you don't need to emulate the XMB to play them.

Also, Harshboy,

You said your memory stick loooks like this:

PSP
--GAME
--MUSIC
--PHOTO
MP_ROOT

Like I said the PSP/GAME, PSP/MUSIC, and PSP/PHOTO folders don't need to be their because they can't be streamed from the XMB (HOWEVER THEY CAN BE STREAMED FROM iR SHELL!)

Also, you should have a 100MNV01 folder inside MP_ROOT and your MP4s should be in that folder.

Lastly, your net host files should NOT go in the PSP folder! They should go in the folder OUTSIDE of the PSP folder.

Hope that helps.

ok, so it should look like this:

ms0:
->nethostfs.exe
->cygwin1.dll
->PSP
---->GAME
-------->File1
-------->File1%
---->PHOTO
-------->Test.PNG
---->MUSIC
-------->Test.MP3
->MP_ROOT
---->100MNV01
-------->M4V00001.MP4

It can look like that, but I don't think you can stream anything except your MP4 videos from the emulated XMB, so the only one that really matters is MP_ROOT/100MNV01/M4V00001.MP4. The rest (well at least music, I didn't try photo or game) will not be stream from the emulated XMB because they can be played directly from iR Shell with no need to emulate the XMB.

However, you can try it like that and see if you are able to stream music, photos, and games to the PSP from the emulated XMB, but I don't think it will work. But, VIDEO SHOULD WORK!
