We have pleanty of ideas. If ideas were all that's needed, then we'd already be running linux and streaming DVDs onto our PSPs, or running full 3d accelerated homebrew games off of a USB HDD. But ideas aren't worth shit (pardonmyfrench) without the code to back them up.

Tell me what we need that we dont have to do this or did you just feel like flaming because your not doing anything use

We have the ability to go from psp to computer and computer to psp. I dont see why we cant go from psp to psp or psp to computer to psp.

Its not like im asking to make a program that uses code we havent already used before. Also just because i said my coding skills were feeble didnt mean that all i was going to contribute was ideas.

Because PSP <-> Computer utilises the built in USB connectivity (i.e. the one provided by Sony themselves as part of the PSP firmware). No-one has coded (as far as I know) a homebrew app for USB connectivity. Let alone a wireless link between PSPs.

We need a full knowledge of the PSPs wireless protocol interface (i.e. what commands do what) and a program that can access the PSP's file system and send data to the aforementioned wireless link (we can read and write to MS, we already have those commands figured out).



A feasable starting point would be a file browser. Then you can at least look at the file tree from the PSP itself (and maybe move files around if you can get that far). Once the wireless control is figured out, then maybe, just maybe, files could be shared over wireless.

Im not referring to usb im referring to psp to computer using telnet the psp and computer can send messages back and forth the only reason i see that the psp cant send more then one message is because the progran doesnt have a way for someone with a psp to write back but with more code i think it could definetly do so and maybe go from psp tp psp or from psp to server to another psp. Any ideas?

Would you not be as well to try connecting to an IRC server?I'm going to try commenting pspPet's code completely to make it a bit clearer how exactly the sockets are being opened/closed etc.

Well.... IRC servers take raw txt for commands. It isn't too hard to connect to them or join channels. It would be quite useful too. I've done socket coding in C before but the telnet app's source is mind boggling.

I have a home-made IRC client made in C with sockets, curses (yes, curses and not ncurses).

If someone wants the source I'll gladly give it to someone. It's not the neatest or most efficient, but it does the job.

I'd be happy to try port the code to use PSP libraries but I'd need a while to get to grips with coding again :( Damn work placement has me fixing printers all day, my coding has gone down the tubes.

could ya mail it to dregin - sayNO To Sp@m - [at] gmail.com?

Thanks.
