I cancelled both pre-orders a while ago and after seeing what M2 has done I'm glad I did. I still want them just for collecting but it will be at bargain bin prices (I agree that probably won't happen with the PCE.. but I'll take the chance as a hundred quid is a joke).

How well PSP games work on PSC? Can I play for example Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep?

and

Which WiFi adapters are compatible with BleemSync 1.2?

Hey guys, I read through most of this thread (admittedly not every page) and I have a few questions when it comes to the Playstation Classic. Aside from the Reddit group, does GBATemp plan on creating it's own sub-forum for this device? I think it's a missed oppourtunity on increasing traffic to this page and new potential users.
With that being said I have a PSC that's using Bleemsync with a 256GB SSD via USB 2.0 and it works... somewhat. I have got to the point where I can get it to load games from it, but a lot of times PCSX_ReARMed that the PSC comes with doesn't load games properly, or has graphical glitches. Are there ways to interact with the settings of the emulator somewhere to help increase compatibility?
Are there other cores that I can use without launching RetroArch? Are there other cores for PSX games I should be trying out?
Sorry for all the random questions, I appreciate any help with it :)

I DMd a couple of mods about it since SNES launched and got no answer or dedicated sub-forum.

Hi guys, Im new to the PS Mini scene. I sucesfully have retroarch and a bunch of stuff. Using AutoBleem.

Can I put retroarch using autobleem as my startup or default app? I mean, I dont want it to start at the autobleem screen, but directly to RA?

Thx in advance!

EDIT: Nevermind! Quickboot option!

Should I buy it ? I know it is an emulator of PCSX but I am not sure if I should. I want to hack it but... it is actually PCSX emulator that I am so disappointed about. Hmmm.. I don't know. I only care about Rockman/MegaMan and Castlevania games on it. Or staying with an emulator on macOS/PC desktop? I have Sega Mega Drive Mini, SNES Mini, and NES mini. All are PALs and my collection that I grew up when I was teenager. Decision, decision.

Is there a guide how to install RetroArch internally?

There are guides out there,but given the frequency that things are updated and amount of space available on the PSC, you are better off sticking to running it from a flash drive. Not to mention the chances that you will end up with a paperweight if you do something wrong

Just updated to RetroBoot 0.10.1 and noticing Dreamcast emulation slowdown on Flycast and Reicast cores comparing to 0.9 version. Anyone with the same problem?

Ok, there are two things potentially ongoing. One is that the devs switched the default renderer from gl to glcore a while back, and in all cores that are performance limited I noticed a decrease in performance after that. If you switch back to gl (core options video), it might give you back the performance delta. That said, they are now bundling filters/shaders for gl and not glcore - so in addition you might have to hunt down the filters/shaders folder of an older version as well.

The second thing of course is to pay attention to threaded video (video settings) being enabled or not.

Apart from that I didnt do performance comparisons between those versions, so there might still be a delta, but its wort trying to play with those settings first.

Ok,

I have installed latest Project Eris and have almost everything working i want. BUT

- After installing the Wolfenstein SDL mod, Where do i put the WL6 (Wolfenstein 3D) and SOD/SD* (Spear of Destiny) files on the usb stick?

Thanks

(I only use my PS Classic for PS1/PSP/NDS games and trying now some game ports out
I also use my SNES Mini only for Nintendo games (GB/GBC/GBA/NES/SNES/VB/Pokemon Mini and G&W) also around 10 ScummVM games)

Anyone knows how connect to ftp on PSC Project Eris 0.9.5 modded? I'm using USB cable. Trying on Windows and GNU Linux. Can connect to telnet server. The problem is I can't get directory listing from the ftp remote host. Happens with Explorer cmd/ftp FileZilla WinSCP and gFTP. For some reason Edge Chromium gets listing properly and I can browse and download files. Can't upload them. Was fine while ago with BleemSync 1.2.0. Please help ;-)

:just found out
in order to connect use port 22 in sftp mode. tested with Project Eris 1.0.0 (169.254.215.100, root, port 22)
:just read-only (perhaps because pendrive plugged in gaadata set to mount ro)

The Playstation Classic turned out to be a great system. I bought one 1 year ago at Target for $15 usd. I was not particularly interested in the Playstation Classic very much because I already had the PS Vita and Playstation TV. But for $15 usd, it was almost free so I picked one up from the store. I only used it once and put it away. When I read about Project Eris 1.0 recently, I set it up along with Retroarch. I used the pcsx_rearmed core/emulator within Retroarch to play my favorite Playstation games and they worked great. The best part of having the Retroarch setup is running the arcade emulator MAME 2003 Plus. The MAME 2003 Plus roms run very well. Among the mini consoles that have been released in the past several years, I think that the Playstation Classic with its Quad Core cpu running at 1.5 GHz has the most powerful hardware among the mini consoles and it is perfect for doing Retroarch emulations. The Playstation Classic turned out to be a great system despite its initial bad showings and bad reviews when it first came out 2 years ago. I am using my Playstation Classic a lot these days.

After a few "harvesting" I found out that the "animation intro+sound" is stored in that executable:

\usr\sony\bin\showlogo

- WAV intro audio starts at offset 0x88C44
- Animated LOGO is built of 72 single PNG files starting at offset 0x23D4

Happy boot modding :)
Hi! Did you manage to replace the intro with a custom one? If so, how did you do it?

If there is no check over the mentioned file you just need to replace the audio and png bytes inside the file taking care of maintaining the correct file size. Anyway I never modded it by myself because I was simply not interesd in doing that :P

Thank you for your reply! I'm not good at this, but I've been able to find a community of people who are smarter than me. The question of changing the intro to a custom one is now under consideration by these talented people. I think something might work out in this.
