3.03 OE-B Released - Movie Madness!

Posted Jan 10, 2007 at 9:32AM EST by QJ Staff

Listed in: Firmware, Homebrew Development Tags: Custom Firmware, firmware updates, MP4, PMP, psp firmware, Sony

Dark_Alex has just released his newest revision of his custom firmware for the PSP, Revision B of 3.03 Open Edition (OE). Seems like Dark_Alex has been more concerned about the PSP consumers than Sony is, issuing tons of new firmware updates (only updatable on 3.03 OE which was made possible by using firmware 1.50), so be sure to give him a huge thanks! With full resolution support for MP4-AVC videos (previously limited on Sony firmwares), you can now enjoy all your videos at "DVD quality" like it was meant to be. Having used PMP Player (which supported 480x270 resolution), this update adds the functionality directly into this new update.

You'll have to have 3.03 OE-A already installed onto your PSP in order to update to OE-B. Installation is easy as pie, just drag the PSP folder (found within MS_Root of the download) to your PSP's root directory and run the update eboot from your PSP's game directory like any other OE update which will only take a short duration since it is only flashing a few files onto it, not the entire firmware. Here's the newest additions to the world's greatest PSP firmware (at the moment) -

Patched the firmware to allow decrypted mp4-AVC videos to play at 480x272 resolution.
pic0.png was not shown in psp isos. Fixed.
The speed functions were not dummied after setting the speed. This could cause the few games that set the cpu speed not to run at the selected speed in the recovery menu.
Changed the structure of the program to have more free ram in game mode.
sysmemp.prx removed, systemctrl.prx splitted into systemctrl.prx and vshctrl.prx
Docmaker also now allows for 1000 png (images) to be used rather than the previous 100

Dark_Alex is the man....I was skeptical with the previous 2.71 OE updates, cause of the flashing and the posibility of bricking my PSP, but I just had to try 3.03 OE-A and everything works great, and now, OE-B...DA works fast. This guy is the man.

PS....i read through the other threads on how ISO and CSO dont need a UMD to run...i cant get this to work, i start the psp and i enable no UMD but all i get is a black screen, can anyone help me with this.

Thank you again.

# As — Guest 2007-01-10 11:26

Wait! Is there a PSX emulator that doesn't involve flash yet? I'm still concerned about flashing my 1.5 PSP just to play PSX games and full-res mp4s! Also is there a .wmv and .mpeg player for the PSP yet?

# Yay! — Guest 2007-01-10 11:28

Yay! great.. although not much change that I benefit from.. and for once QJ were fast on posting the news, I sent a tip and when I had posted it an article was already up

# Sure... — Guest 2007-01-10 11:29

Yeah thank you both Dark_Alex and Mathieulh for your great work...

Keep going..!!

# 3.030E-A'? — Guest 2007-01-10 11:29

Does the new 3.03OE-B have like everything in 3.03OE-A' so i can like skip updating to 3.03OE-A' then 3.03OE-B.

# WTF sony?? — Guest 2007-01-10 11:32

sony needs to give Dark_Alex a big stipend, that's all there is to it.

thank you Dark_Alex, now my psp is a 3.03OE-B that plays native res (from 2.71 TA-082).

# Just an idea — Guest 2007-01-10 11:32

I have been fiddling around with getting a keyboard to work with the psp. Using the fact that the USB can now host via. the camera update I have had very limited success. I am not a programmer I am just a hobbyist so I figured I would get some feed back on the idea.

# Thnx from Croatia, Dark Alex — Guest 2007-01-10 11:33

Dark Alex on Croatian "Crni Aleksa" you are my Idol !

Thanx man 100000 times !

# 1.5 psp — Guest 2007-01-10 11:34

ok i have a 1.5 psp. If i update to this does that mean that my firmware will always be this custom firmware and i can never change back?

# good, good — Guest 2007-01-10 11:35

this is cool thanks, you can leave the homebrew scene in peace now dark alex, we'll miss you

# You've done it again — Guest 2007-01-10 11:36

Thank you to the entire crew that worked on this, Dark_Alex and everyone else. I love these custom firmwares; all of these features should've been availible from the get-go. It's excellent to see dedicated individuals take the PSP to the next level, and then some.

# So how do you convert avi/mpgs o full resolution? — Guest 2007-01-10 11:37

So how do you convert your movies to this full resolution? What do you use? PSPVideo9 only converts to resolutions accepted by the old firmware, right? How do you get full 480x272?

# No — Rok 2007-01-10 11:40

You can always go back to 1.5 with recovery.

# wtf — Guest 2007-01-10 11:42

can u have the 3.03 0E-B fr0m a 2.71 psp with ta-082?

# 1.5 psp — Guest 2007-01-10 11:46

ok i have a 1.5 psp. If i update to this does that mean that my firmware will always be this custom firmware and i can never change back? also would you recomend upgrading to this from a 1.5 psp?

# You Are Great!!!!!!! — Guest 2007-01-10 11:47

Thaks Dark Alex!!!!!

you are agreat man!

You should become president of Sony:)

Thank you.

# Ok i got one question about the GAME and the GAME150 folders... — Rok 2007-01-10 11:49

Im on 3.03 OE-A' an when i change my GAME folder to GAME150 it dosent work the psp dont detect it... any help please? (I have this problem from 3.02 OE-A - 3.03 OE-A')

# Xvid4PSP — Guest 2007-01-10 11:49

Xvid4PSP should work just fine, I use it all the time to make amazing looking PMP files, now I'll just use it to make full res .mp4 files. Thanks to DA and Mathieulh and anyone else involved...still using 3.02 oe-b, guess I'm gonna have to make another leap now....thanks again guys, your hard work and dedication is truly appreciated.

# Just upgrade already! — Guest 2007-01-10 11:50

I have a TA-82, and I used the downgrader to 1.5, and then went up to 3.02OE-A/B and 3.03OE-A/A'/B, and haven't had a single problem. As long as you follow instructions word to word, everything will go fine. I don't know of any people myself who have bricked from this upgrade...so there is almost no chance of bricking if you follow everything close.

# ,m — Guest 2007-01-10 11:50

I Agree. all in your own time.

# You can go to 1.50 — Rok 2007-01-10 11:51

If you dont like it you can always go back to 1.50 with the recovery.

# . — Guest 2007-01-10 11:53

You have to go

2.71->1.5->3.03 OE-A->3.03 OE-B

I'm surprised how many ta-082 owners still don't realize that they could be on the custom firmware.

# As — Guest 2007-01-10 11:55

Yeah, that or flash 9 plugin for the browser!

# . — Guest 2007-01-10 11:55

Don't change the GAME folder to GAME150, just add a new folder called GAME150.

If the GAME folder is not present, it won't detect anything.

If you mean saving over Hotshots 2, all you have to do when you create the game from an image is to change the game ID dax allready set that up in the new popstation so that shouldnt be a problem anymore.

I'd like to get my PSP to be 3.03 OE-B, but I've been readin' about this stuff for about a week now but I'm still not sure how I would be able to go about it. Can anybody help me out?

Hi guys, could you help me? I would like to install the 3.03 Open Edition Revision B, but, I was reading the readme.txt and I must have to instal the 3.03-OEA before updating to B. I downloaded the 3.03-OEA but I need the 1.5 and 3.03 firmware, like is informed on documentation

"Get the 1.50 and 3.03 sony updates, and put them in the oeupdatemaker folder with the names

150.PBP and 303.PBP."

so, I would like to know, where I could get these firmeware, somebody could say me?

thanks a lot and sorry for my poor english.

# you need... — Guest 2007-01-10 13:10

fw 1.5, 2.71 se, or 3.02 oe to have a capability of running 3.03 oe. you can only upgrade if you have 1.5 or custom fw's

# Yeah, you're wrong...as in stupid — Guest 2007-01-10 13:11

DevHook does not support the PSX native emulation in 3.0x+ firmware. That is only available via this custom firmware. If DevHook wouldn't have this limitation then yes, DevHook would be king, but it cannot so it's no longer the fact.

In the end Dark Alex's custom firmware will pretty much be on top, no matter what. The only drawback so far is that he's having to remove some of the native apps (i.e. Location Free Player) in order for him to make the dual-kernel 1.5/3.0x work in the limited space that's available in F0.

Also, F1 doesn't matter. You can corrupt that all day long and it won't brick your PSP. BTW, DevHook .52 corrupts F1 and forces a BSOD on first startup, yet doesn't cause any issues. It's F0 that's the issue sometimes, but if you follow the simple instructions on the install of any of these custom firmware there's pretty much a 0% chance to brick your PSP. The people that brick on these installs are stupid noobs who don't know how to read and don't understand simple instuctions.

Ask yourself this... if you need the Noob Auto Installs that people on PSPHacks make in order to get things as simple as DevHook to work on your PSP, then custom firmware is not for you.... for that matter, just return your PSP back to the store.

Honestly, Dark_Alex, thank you so much for your contributions. Your work and efforts certainly don't go unnoticed. We all owe you a dept of gratitude.

# . — Guest 2007-01-10 14:08

when will u understand that you can't add features to the firmware that don't already exist (even if limited)? don't you get it? the psp plays mp4. it doesn't play avi, it doesn't play wmv, it doesn't play anything else but mp4. dark_alex hacked the restriction that made user created video not full-screen. understand that you can't add features to the firmware that aren't already there. except for the recovery menu which actually isn't part of the firmware itself.

# ... — Guest 2007-01-10 14:11

I agree with "not" but I'd like to add that custom firmwares are probably safer than official ones as custom firmwares have recovery menu to recover from a brick. With official ones though you only have one chance

# video folder??? — Guest 2007-01-10 14:13

hey...i was just wondering if you still need to do the stupid MP_ROOT folder on the root of the MS with the other dumb folder inside of it, then the actual video folder inside of the last one named MAQ10004? i heard you can now make a VIDEO folder and put it into your PSP folder (along with the music, game, etc. folders) and then name your video whatever you want to call it. if anyone knows anything about this that would be awesome!

# Video Location — jscinoz 2007-01-10 14:16

PotFarmer: Place your videos in MP_ROOT\101MNV01\

Each video must be named M4VXXXXX.MP4 where the X's represent any 5 digit number.

You can also include a .thm of the same name (E.G M4VXXXXX.thm) which contains the icon for the video.

Hope this helps,

# Videora PMP Converter — Guest 2007-01-10 14:20

I have converted a Video with "Videora PMP Converter" but the outputfile is a PMP file! I dont a PMP file i need a .mp4 file!? How can i convert with this program into a .mp4 file?

# recovery folder — Guest 2007-01-10 14:27

you're suppose to rename the the 1.50 eboot.pbp to update.pbp, seeing as how there would be 2 eboot.pbp files in the same directory. the flash for recovery eboot program looks for the 1.5fw @ update.pbp and flashes it so that you'll have a 1.5 again.

# You can't, sorry! — Guest 2007-01-10 14:32

You need to have an older firmware... The maximum you can have is "offical 2.80"

If you have upgraded past that (which you have) then you have no way to run the 3.03 OE installer. Therefore, you can't install it.

You're locked out sorry. You just have to hope that someone finds a hole in the 3.03 (don't upgrade anymore!!) firmeware so that you CAN run custom software. Then you will be able to install this.

Until then, you're totally out of luck. You can't run any homebrew software, only offically released stuff.

I had a 2.80 PSP, thankfully just before Christmas a downgrader was released. Before then, I couldn't do anything either. Here's hoping you had the luck I did...

# Problem with GTA and 3.03 OE — Guest 2007-01-10 15:22

I have a problem, I upgraded to 3.03OEA ok but I wanted to play GTA VCS with cheat device so I ran GTA with devhook 4.6 with 2.71 an the game started but when I turned the PSP off it wouldnt boot just got the loading screen then a blank screen. I used the recovery and flashed back to 1.50.

GTA works find with devhook 4.6 and cheat device now im back on 1.50 but I want to use this new firmware without giveing up cheatdevice.

I thought 3.03 was suposed to work with all 1.50 brew so why dose devhook mess up the 3.03oe flash files?

ive tried that stuff already with the m4vxxxxx and the maqxxxxx in the other folder but it gives me this message that data type not supported on my psp. mabie im just encoding the video wrong or something. i used xvid4psp to encode it into a 480 by 272 mp4 avc file. i might try using another program and see if that works.

I just know it will be you who finds the exploit! (patiently Waiting)

# Thanks DA — Guest 2007-01-10 16:30

Not to be rude or complain but FF7 still is glitched for those who are wondering. It might be just me as I still am using my ISO from when 3.02 OE-B was released....but oh well.

I'm still quite happy with this update and busy with FF9 which is running beautifully. All this is possible because of our dearest DA. Thank you!

# HELP me to recover or unbrick - Please!!! — adarkthinline 2007-01-10 16:37

I previously went from 2.6>2.71>1.5>3.02OEA>3.02OEB with all working fine. I decided to go to the next DA 3.03 OE-B. I know that I first needed to upgrade to the 3.03OE-A so I tried that first and I received an "error... DATA.DAXR" and it shut off the PSP and then when I restarted manually my memory card light would flash 8 times then pause 4 sec and reflash... I can get to recovery, but I am not that familiar on the process. Can anyone help? please?

# Please tell me! — Guest 2007-01-10 16:55

Please tell me that this thing plays games not brought from the PS3 store cause i don't have a PS3 and none of my friends do either but I do have a backed up Digimon world 3 game It's a BIN file I think JUS PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF IT WILL PLAY A GAME NOT FROM THE STORE.!.!.!

# I agree with previous comments — Guest 2007-01-10 17:00

I think that the N64 project would be done in no time flat with DA, and with barely any bugs to fix out...i mean 3.03OE-A and now B is a big step from when everyone started out with a 1.50 and a simple snes emulator. DAX is a genius and i know he has all of our support. And the N64 is just a suggestion afterall.

# PSX Issues — Guest 2007-01-10 21:14

Guys, DA didn't make the emu, sony did. Emu compatability is only going to increase with later firmware realeases by SONY. Hopefully when those come out DA can hack em.

If you have firmware 2.81 or less, look for downgraders to 1.50. (Just google it!). If your firmware is higher than 2.81, you are stuck until someone writes a downgrader.

# i'd also like to point out — Guest 2007-01-10 22:04

if you brick a PSP when trying to do a legit update from an official firmware you can get money out of sony for it

First of all THANKS DARK ALEX, that's a great work again!

I have a question: It plays videos in full resolution, ok. I was going to test it, I've converted a video with the just released "custom .ini for 3GP Converter v0.34" It converted it successfully. Then I've copied it to Videos folder, it said: unsupported data. Then to MP_ROOT/100MNV01, and it still said that its unsupported data. Then I've put it to the MP_ROOT/101ANV01 and it worked. Its interesting. All videos must be in the 101ANV01 folder?

# AWESOME... but... — Guest 2007-01-11 05:15

Awesome, but what feature really needs to be added is for UP owners, running 3.02OEB on their UP, to be able to reflash the PSPNand from 3.02OEB on the UP Chip.

Its totally possible, just hasn't been done.

My FPC cable on my UP is broke, and I have 3.03OEB on my UP and 3.03Sony on my PSPNand... but I cannot put Epsilon on my UP without the FPC cable, and only epsilon has the ability to flash from the UP tot he PSPNand. the feature could EASILY be added to 3.03OE I would think. maybe even a modified recovery console Eboot would work... Someone please write this, I could try, but not nearly enough coding experience.

Anyways, GREAT JOB DA!

please please please make what I asked though, without it I cannot run PSX games on my PSP as they dont work of OE is on the UP for some reason.

# free umd region not working on 3.03 OE-B — Guest 2007-01-11 05:52

When I update from 3.03 OE-A to 3.03 OE-B, free umd region not working.

# Here's the full Read Me — Guest 2007-01-11 05:54

PSPlayerMT is a homebrew audio/video player for the PSP, which is capable of playing AVI videos

with resolution up to 480*272@29.97 fps without lags. Yay! No more transcoding! The GUI is

currently very simple, but the performance is so great. However unfortunately, we can't figure

out the name of the author to give the credit to. All we know now is that it is made by a

Korean guy.

UPDATE: Boys over at CNGBA has confirmed that this player also works on 2.00+ PSP too! Upgraded

users, download the eLoader and join the wonderful homebrew scene now! +D

Here are some more details from the readme:

It supports the following extensions and formats:

* Video: AVI, MOV, MP4, OGM, MKV, NUT, ASF, WMV. Audio: MP3, M4A, WMA, OGG, WAV.

* MPEG1/2/4 video(DivX, XviD), Windows Media Video, Ogg theora, Mpeg audio (MP2, MP3, AAC),

AC3, OGG, Windows Media Audio

How to use the program:

* Left Shoulder - Start from beginning

* Right Shoulder - Go to Menu

* Circle - Select the file

* Triangle - Zoom

* Square - Displays info

* Home - Quit

* D-pad Left - Rewind

* D-pad Right - Fast forward

# Video folder — Guest 2007-01-11 06:00

you need to get a program to load the video on the psp with both files that are created; psp video manager, i believe, is the name of one; it will make it a supported file

# .. — Guest 2007-01-11 06:09

hmm...i'm not sure but i think when you convert the image to eboot format you have to make sure both disks have the same gameid.

perhaps someone could confirm this?

# quick memo for linux users — Guest 2007-01-11 12:12

I am kind of fed up about poking around google with contradictory info. Here is how I made it work under linux in AVC full resolution so you won't have to look it up.

I used ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20061016 on my gentoo.

I put that in a script avc-1pass.sh (inspired from the readme):

#!/bin/sh

ffmpeg -y -i "$1" -title "$2" -vcodec h264 -coder 1 -bufsize 128 -g 250 -s 480x272 -r 29.97 -b 768 -acodec aac -ac 2 -ar 48000

-ab 64 -f psp "MAQ000$3.MP4"

ffmpeg -y -i "$1" -f image2 -ss 5 -vframes 1 -s 160x120 -an "MAQ000$3.THM"

example to convert a movie :

./avc-1pass.sh myvideo.avi The\ last\ episode 05

then copy the MAQ*.MP4 and MAQ*.THM to :

/MP_ROOT/100ANV01

-> relative to the root of your memory stick

I hope it helps ...

While you can indeed play 480 x 272 movies now, you have to set it to 'fullscreen' mode to do this, which means if you want to watch something that's not 16:9 (ie: a 4:3 video at 320 x 240, or I suppose 362 x 272 is possible now) you have to change the screen mode. Excellent job, but it'd be nice if the 480 x 272 videos would automatically play widescreen instead of shrunk, that way you could leave it on normal all the time like we used to. Maybe for 3.02 OE-B'? ;P

next i got dax's 3.03 b update and put it on the mem stick and updated from that. now i can play video and use 1.5 homebrew but none of my games work, psp isos or psx. also, it was crashing at the sce screen when i switched it on so i went in recovery mode and chose to turn the sce logo off at startup.

i would like to start over either from 1.5 or somehow redo the whole 3.03 update again but i don't know what i should do next. i'm afraid to do anything for fear of bricking my psp. any help please?

thanks in advance.

# Upgrade and Downgrade — Guest 2007-01-16 06:11

I'm a noob so excuse me for asking this, but I haven't been able to find an answer to these questions:

I have an 1.50 PSP and would like to upgrade to 3.03 OE-B

- Can I downgrade back to 1.50 from 3.03 OE-B?

- Most guides recommend a clean 1.50 before doing any upgrades, how do I install/flash my PSP with a "clean" 1.50?

# I THINK MY PSP BRICKED! — Guest 2007-01-16 16:07

Hey i updated to this firmware and when i start a UMD, it freezes at the "PSP" screen same for the ISO and CSO!! PLEASE HELP ME!~!

# OMG — Guest 2007-01-18 16:37

If you like I can buy that Bricked PSP of yours. Common you no longer need it. Not unless i tell you there is a way of making it work again. Better yet exchanging it for a new one.

# how to... — Guest 2007-01-19 08:37

Okay, I'm slow, but I just downgraded my 2.8 fw yesterday and now want to upgrade from 1.5 to 3.03 OE-B. I'm just confused on how to do it. I'm not sure if I have to install previous versions of the custom firmware or what. So if someone is willing to help me out, that would be great. Thanks.

# ... — Guest 2007-01-19 18:18

my iso's/cso's don't seem to work now I'm using 3.03OE-B, and I put my games in the iso folder and I tried it in the GAME150 folder and still no luck. When I try to start a game it just gets frozen at the PSP logo. Also I got no-umd enabled.

Can someone please help me?

# no WPA in 3.03 — Guest 2007-01-20 04:39

Since I update from 3.02 OE-B to 3.03 OE-A

I can't use WPA connection in my homebrew apps anymore.

Not working is: pspVNC 1.2.3 and PiMPStreamer 2.0.1

Does anybody has the same problem?

# Only WEP — Guest 2007-01-20 08:51

a WEP connection in homebrew is working but WPA connection isn't working.

# Tanks D_A Not work NO UMD — Guest 2007-01-21 11:01

Thanks for all, In the 3.03 OE-B I have the same problem I have USE NO-UMD (Currently Enabled), And when I run an ISO Game it doesnt work the screen turns black. The ISos Just work when NO UMD is disabled.

En la Version 3.03 OE-B A pesar de tener activado el NO UMD, al correr un ISO, la pantalla se pone negra y se traba, tengo que utilizar forzosamente el NO UMD Disabled utilizando un umd para correr los isos.

Hay alguna razon?

# Plz Help! How to watch UMD-VIDEO ISO on PSP 3.03 OE-A. & How to rip... — Guest 2007-01-21 16:36

Hey everyone how's it going? I'm a newbie & I just recently upgraded my PSP to 3.03 OE-A. I also have a 4Gb Memory stick for games & I'm loving it. But I got a problem..i just downloaded "Silent Hill Experience" & I have no idea how to watch it?? It's an UMD-VIDEO ISO file. I tried converting it in "Xilisoft PSP Video Converter" but doesn't work. Can anyone please help? Thanks for your help & take care.

BJ

PS. I was also wondering if anyone knows how to rip UMD-VIDEOS & UMD GAMES? Because I have quite a few games & movies. I'm always bringing them in a bag full of them, its annoying..lol..is there anyway of ripping them on the memory stick & backing them up on the computer to save the trouble?

Thanks again.
