MicrophoneEx is PAlib add-on for high-quality microphone recording.

It is a simple library intended to replace PAlib’s current microphone functions. Currently it is capable of:
– Recording high-quality sounds from the microphone
– Tell the user the microphone’s volume (very much like PAlib)
– Writing microphone recordings to WAV files on the flash card

Also, please note that it only works with PAlib 080823 (latest PAlib version as of 30/08/2008).

sony psp player has released a launcher for pge Lua applications. Put your applications into the application directory. A sample called (“draw3d”) is attatched.

Depanbrew is a homebrew application that, according to its french author, is supposed to “solve every type of encountered problems” – which is obviously a mistranslation. Currently, it presents two selected problems commonly attributed to the installing of out-of-region firmware updates (duplicate channels, and an unaccessible settings menu) as well as a simulation of a repair process. The application does not actually repair anything, but it looks pretty in the process.

zeldalyoko started to work on a new Sokoban game for Nintendo DS called “Sokoban DS”. There is no release yet.

DScircles is a simple program that allows you to create expanding and reflecting circles by tapping on the ds touch screen. You can change the color of the circles by holding the Left or Right bumpers and tapping on the color box in the color chart cube. The left slider changes the lifetime of the circles and the right slider changes the point at which the color will begin to fade to black.

Auto Lock (CSDEVCTRL) is another auto locking program which utilizes the Windows Locking for partial locking (phone related keys are active) or complete locking (no keys are active).

Changes:

v3.28 – Added option for Power off and lock only if Today is shown (+Fixes of course).
