~How to turn your PSP into a Universal Remote~

Lol, man you have bad luck. . I have no idea whats wrong. =/

haha thanks for making this, i used the IR remote to turn my School TV's on and off all day haha it was awesome!

I dont get it, i upgraded to 3.90m33, but now the remote tells me; "unsupported firmware, pls power off psp".
HELP ME, im getting desperate

You will need a fat PSP and a newer version of IRShell to use your PSP as a universal remote. If you aren't able to get it working with the latest IRShell version, then I'm afraid it won't work. You'd then have to look to programs for the PSP like IR Commander, which really didn't work well for me.

I firmwares finally figured it out, since IR SHELL 3.7 is compatable for 3.71M33 CFW, I googled "ir shell", and i was able to get an updated version of this homebrew. The current version is 3.9 and is considerably lengthy to install, however all you need to do is install IRSHELL3.9 then add a 3.90M33 patch provided on the website, then place it under ms0:\IRSHELL\PATCH. Just Google it, the installation instructions found on irshell.org should be easier to understand.

That made me think of the new apple laptop that is like 1/4 thick. Maybe there will be a psp that skinny lol. Or at least big enough to stick a UMD in it. Anyways so you got the Universal Remote working?

I got it working, but i need to find more codes if possible.

They're called pronto hex codes. I think IRShell comes with many of the common ones, but if you need something in particular, goto this website and you should be able to find anything you want.

I still can't find my tv brand .

What make/ model tv are you trying to find a code for? I will look for it when I have some spare time. Some are pretty hard to find.

Oh it is a TV brand named 'SYLVANIA' a 20 in flat screen.

@silver, did you put the IRCODES on your memory stick?

yes i did but now i have a bigger problem i belive its unrelated but when i try to go into the usb connection my psp just stays at the "please wait..." and i dont know why i recently put custom firmware but it was working after i loaded it. the psp doesnt freeze i can get out of it and i can run programs on the mem stick and play umd games. any ideas

ok thanks for all the help but i have fixed all my problems. i guess i have greduated to a level 2 noob. one more question some of my codes are text as wel and someone said i should save them as another type of file. anybody want to point out a tutorial to do this or tell me how to do that

I found a tutorial at some point but i forget how, but som1 else might know.
