iR Commander v0.7 (PSP Application)

iR Commander is an Infra-Red Universal Remote Control software for Playstation Portable. It allows you to control various home appliances and other infra-red based equipments. It’s implementation is based on CIR (Consumer IR), not IrDA. Thus, it will not allow you to communicate with your laptop via IrDA for information exchange. CIR is typically used among most home appliances and electronic equipments with IR wireless remote controls, such as TVs, VCRs, DVDs, Projectors, etc.The current version of iR Commander does not allow your PSP to directly learn another remote control unit by pointing at it. Instead, it uses the most popular IR code available on the net, Pronto Hex Code. By copying the Pronto Hex Codes to your PSP, you can eventually turn your PSP into a Universal remote with support for over 6000 equipments.http://www.ahman.co.nr/

GP2PSX v0.34f (PSX emu for GP2x)

ZodTTD has released another new update for his Playstation emulator. Release notes:

UPDATED February 4th, 2006

New in version v0.34f:

  • Dramatic overall speedup over last release (v0.34e). I’m finally able to reach better timings of interupts. FF7 gets 21 FPS without sound, and 17 FPS with sound (tested at the first save point) with 0 frameskip. Not too shabby!
  • Frameskip works now. How embarassing, I forgot to include it in the last release. Anyways, use Volume Down/Up to control frameskip. Going from frameskip 0 to frameskip 1 will make the biggest difference. Frameskip 2 will speed things up further, but may make things choppy as well. Frameskip 3 and higher will most likely be very choppy.
