Unofficial Third-party program thread

Having looked high and low for decent programs for my PSP (okay, two sites!) I found a decent package with emulators and such by someone known as seamonkey. I recommend looking it up.

It came with emulators for SNES, NES, Sega Genesis, Game Gear, Neo Geo Pocket...tons others, too. It also had a calculator app, a calendar app (difficult to use, however), chess and some other miscellaneous things. For under 10mb it's not too big for dial-up downloads or the stock memory stick. however I can't condone the illegal downloading of ROMs for your emulators....

The big thing it had was PSPersonalize, an app that allows you to rewrite the images used to make the BG of your main menu. It takes a 300x170 24 bit bmp file and copies over the ones in the system memory to change your PSP's background. Of course, there is risk involved, but I've had no problems as of yet.

If anyone else has anything else they'd like to share in regards to PSP programs and apps, even ones for your computer such as mp3 or movie encoders, here's the place to discuss!

"share and enjoy" :P
 
I'm using the video transcoder : PSP Video Express.

IMO this is the best free video software available, it has a really nice gui and is easy to adjust qyaulity of video, giving a close estimate of the size of the final file, great when your still waiting to gat that 1GB memory stick :embarrassed:.

It will redudce a 20 minute TV show (on TV would 30 minutes, but without adverts) to 30MB, allowing it to fit on the standard memory stick.

Also the user can set the start point. Limitations are that it will not allow the setting of end points or convert a DVD, for this you must upgrade to PSP Movie maker at a cost of $35.

It also has good file transer/management features

A highly recomended program to all PSP owners.
 
I recommend the MP4 convert PSP Video 9. http://www.pspvideo9.com
It's free and you can change the settings of how much Kb/s.

A few highlights:

PSP_Radio - you can listen to the shoutcast radio stations using the PSP! Awesome.

Lua Player PSP 0.10 - a game scripting language that allows for pretty graphically advanced games to be made. One game that's very nice is PSP Air Hockey, which you can play two player on the same PSP.

PSP Kick 2.0 - great drumcomputer

FFMPEG - A new movie player just started in development which can already do full PSP resultion DivX and XviD playback

CaSTaway - A great Atari ST Emulator, works flawlessly. Best of all, this is one of the best emulated platforms that is also 100% legal, hardware, software, firmware.

Bookr - a great PDF and .txt reader with a nice interface, zoom up to 16x, and handles most PDFs very well. The .txt reader remembers where you were when you exit the program, and continues when you open that file, or you can manually set a bookmark too. Great, reading ebooks works great on the PSP. 👍 And with a tool like PDF Creator, you can do great things.

PSP PDA - an organiser that can play music, store addresses, has a notepad, calendar, etc. Pretty good, though the keyboard takes a bit to get used to (but has 3 different modes, so one will probably suit you)

SCUMMVM PSP - the popular adventure enginge ported to the PSP, again in nice widescreen. :) These games look awesome as they always were in widescreen anyway. And there are so many! Monkey Island, Sam 'n Max, Loom, etc. Plus that two adventure games have been released into the public domain - Beneath a Steel Sky, and Flight of the Amazon Queen. See www.scummvm.org for more info.

PSP_Set - allows you to customise just about everything on your PSP

PSP_Doom (and Quake, Heretic) - a port of Doom to the PSP, which also allows you to run all the numerous WADs that were developed for it. Pretty good stuff, Doom in widescreen. ;)

PSP Flower - an awesome coding demo by moppi, converted to the PSP and looking amazing.

These are just a few examples that pop into my head. There's tonnes more. It's a good idea to go and have a look at http://pspupdates.qj.net
 
Bedankt Arwin!

I'm searching for PSP PDA right now, but pspupdates.qj.net is down or something..?

Edit: K, downloaded PSP PDA.. But how can I install it?
 
These are great! Do any of you have a list of URLs for the rest of us?

Some of these I don't have, but programs like PSP Video 9 I do and can vouch for their quality!
Nice findings folks! 👍

I just found this program after struggling with PSP Video 9 and never getting a decent copy out of it. It lets you transfer your DVD's to PSP, easily and quickly: www.psptransfer.com

spammer? its not free. There are many pay progs out there listing more than one would look less like spamming

I'm sorry, but I'm not going to research all the programs that are out there just to keep my post from looking like spam. I used this program, it worked. I don't know about any other programs, I haven't used them. I used all the free crappy programs (PSP Video 9, etc.) also, they didn't work, well, they worked, but it took forever to get a decent copy, and the quality of it compared to the space it took up made it not feasible for me. Hence, I made a recommendation for a product.
