Can it cause functionality issues with emulators?

I got the plugin installed and enabled; however, whenever I try to open up SNES9xTYL, NesterJ and Master Boy it just freezes on the PSP PlayStation Portable screen and it fades to black, nothing happens, it's done that twice and I've had to take the battery out in order to reboot.

I tried disabling the plugin and things work fine now

How can this problem be fixed, the same thing is happening to me, I have all of plugins enabled and the right drivers installed.

RemoteJoyLite is great I remember using it back in the days when I wanted to play PSP on a monitor but now Sony's solved it for me. Unfortunately runing the PS1 hack loader is a bit of a pain on it.

I just wanted to add to this topic that the Lengkeng lkv8000 upscaler (hdmi out) works amazingly for full screen retro games on a hdtv. I was really surprised by how good nes and snes games look when smoothing is turned on in the emulator and the tv is set to 0 sharpness. I have a 40 inch hdtv and the picture looks great from as close as 2 meters away.
Even ps1 games look better than when you run them on original hardware (on a hdtv of course). The only downside to ps1 games is that you have to boot up the game on pops 4.00 or lower (i believe). All the later pops are zoomed in too much on the tv and there is no way to correct it.

That device on Aliexpress costs $97 so might as well just get a PSTV (way cheaper) and play all the PSP, PS1 and emulators a person can want and that it can handle. Plus whatever compatible Vita games.

Had Sony released PSTV at the same time during PSP I would've loved it back then even more. It's awesome.

Currently I'm playing Pokémon Blue with custom soundtracks.

Yup. Investing in a PSTV is now a better option than fiddling with upscalers, plus it gives you access to PSV games, Remote Play and other goodies.

O sorry haven't heard about that yet. I will look into it, thanks!

Yes, but to have both PS1 and PSP game compatibility you have to find a 3.20 PSTV.
