Hi everyone~ :)

To support macro functions (consecutive moves) in PS3, I want to make my PSP work as a PS3 controller by USB connection.

Could anyone tell me if this programming is possible or not?

If possible, I need some information about how to control USB signal of PSP and make it recognized in PS3 USB port.

Could anyone give me some advice for me?

Maybe a reference code is the best solution..

Thank you~ :)

Well first, its possible. But you need to learn how to use the usb as a host. Learn how the ps3 operate, and what command, or signals that need to be sent or recieve. You might need to make a homebrew for the ps3 for this to work.

the ps3 wont detect usb control in game os, even if the psp usb could be programmed at that level.

Yes, it is -- but not trivial. At the very least you'll need a pretty good working knowledge of USB and likely be able to do some reverse engineering to get this to work.

You'll need to make the PSP emulate a USB HID joystick. See http://www.usb.org/developers/hidpage for the details of the HID spec. You'll probably want to use the psplink source code to get an idea of how to do the USB stuff on the PSP side, although you also may need to do your own reverse engineering for any necessary functions that Tyranid might not have used in that code.

The PS3 GameOS will try to use virtually any USB HID device under the sun, including non PS3 joysticks.

they will work in the xmb but not in games, except a few. ive tried with some pc gamepads. they only work in the xmb, and the button assignments were messed up on all but my ps2 control using ps2-to-usb plug.
