Released: iR Shell v1.1 - MP3 Support

Tendold · Mar 3, 2006

AhMan (già creatore di iR Commander) ha rilasciato una nuova versione, del suo iR Shell.
Questo homebrew scritto in LUA, è una shell con la quale potremo "lanciare" i vari homebrew salvati nella nostra PSP, e con la semplice pressione di una serie di pulsanti, (L+Select) potremo selezionare altre funzioni in corredo a iR Shell v1.1; avremo infatti la possibilità di catturare uno screen, oppure utilizzare la PSP come telecomando.

Di seguito il changelog, in cui potrete leggere le novità apposrtate in questa nuova release, mentre a fondo news troverete il link per il download.

Version 1.1
1. A MP3 player plugin is added which allows MP3 to be played back along with your UMD game/homebrew music.
- Support playback list. To construct playback list, use CIRCLE key to highlight music tracks. Maximum playlist size is 10 and the playlist entries should reside in the same directory.
- Repeat single track or repeat the whole playlist.
- Playback control including pause, resume, stop, next track, previous track, volume up and down. Pls note that the MP3 volume control is independent of your PSP's hardware volume button. This will be useful to adjust the MP3 volume without changing your game/homebrew's original music/sound volume. To change the volume of your UMD game/homebrew, use the hardware volume buttons.
2. Data, time & battery info added.
3. Allows CPU speed change. This will be essential for MP3 playback, as some games may experience slowdown if CPU running at stock speed (use Left Trigger + Start). Recommended setting speed to 333 for MP3 playback with game/homebrew running. Note: CPU clock speed selection should be made before launching game/homebrew.
4. APP View (Application view) now supports hidden corruption icon naming.
5. The Pronto Code remote database has been cleaned up. Visit my homepage (http://www.ahman.co.nr) to download an updated version.

Usage Note for iR Shell:
1. unzip the pspirshell10.zip and place the files to your PSP under /PSP/GAME/.
2. Button configuration while you're under iR Shell Menu.

3. The view toggle (square button) allows you to choose your view among applications, RDFs or directory. For application (APP View), a list of launchable applications under /PSP/GAME is listed. For RDF (RDF view_, it will list the RDF files under /PSP/GAME/IRSHELL. For directory (DIR View), you'll be able to navigate among different directories and launch the selected files with file type, ".rdf", ".bmp" or ".pbp".
4. To switch between iR Shell/iR Commander and the launched app, use "Left Trigger + Select" combo.
5. To quit the game/homebrew, use the normal home key (or other exit key defined by homebrew) while you're under the game/homebrew and you'll be brought back to iR Shell. Do not use the home key to exit while you're under iR Shell. Doing so will appear to hang your PSP, but you can recover by pressing "Left Trigger + Select".
6. To exit back to PSP shell, use "Analog Down" while you're under iR Shell.
7. To take snapshot, click the Note button (Music button). Snapshots are placed under /PSP/SNAPSHOT and can be viewed via built-in bitmap file viewer.
8. The USB toggle allows you to copy files to/from MS and is indicated by a USB indicator on the bottom right corner. However, in order to avoid USB conflicts with other games/homebrew, it's recommended to turn off USB before launching UMD Game/homebrew.
9. The compatibility between UMD games/homebrew seems to be very high.

Usage Note for iR Commander (build within iR Shell):
1. If you haven't installed the Pronto Hex Codes before, you'll need to download the Pronto Hex Code from my website (www.ahman.co.nr) and unzip the prontocodes10.zip and place the files to your PSP under /PSP/GAME/.
2. You can define a remote control by adding a Remote Control Descr iption file (rdf). This is a plain text file. Please refer to the sample "Panasonic TV.rdf" for syntax descr iption. You can simply use Windows Notepad to create a rdf, make sure you disable Word Wrap via Format->Word Wrap menu. This will allow you to see one code entry per line under Notepad.
3. If you make any typos in rdf file. The program will abort telling what & where you've made the typo after you have chosen that remote in the application.
4. There is an iR indicator on the top right corner on the remote control screen. It'll flash in RED if the PSP is transmitting IR signal.
5. Refer to the "Panasonic TV.rdf" sample for defining Macros and short cut remote lists.
6. Start key to switch to another remote directly if shortcut list is defined.
7. To select the bundled IR codes, press SQUARE button to switch to directory view and make selection. "Codes" folder contains the standard Pronto Hex Codes and "Discrete Codes" folder contains Discrete Codes" from www.remotecentral.com. Codes from Component Configuration Files (ccf) from www.remotecentral.com are not included.
