Sakya has released a new version of his slim lined MP3 player for the Sony PSP.

Changes:

– Added: Audioscrobbler log (disabled by default look a the settings file).
The app writes a .scrobbler.log file you can upload to your last.fm account through this page:
http://paulstead.com/scrob/
– Added: Settings (CPU/BUS clock, EQ) are saved in the file settings
– Added: you can switch from old or new volume boost method.
Default is new method.
Check the settings file(it’s commented).
– Added: display of instant bitrate
– Added: Playing a single file will actually play the directory (starting from the selected file)
– Added: the app is a little lighter, you can lower cpu 2/3 mhz more (if not using EQ or volume boost).
Many mp3 of mine are now playing good with the cpu at 65/67mhz (with 1.3.0 was 70mhz)
– Fixed: File without ID3 now display filename in playlist
– Fixed: Trying to open a file too big will show an error (and not make the app crash)
– Fixed: The app now correctly exits pressing HOME.
– Fixed: some bugs in the playlist editor (removing the last song, clearing the playlist)

2) A LocalHost Server is started which redirects signals from the local port to the USB
3) The PSP APP picks up on the signals from USB and then tells the wifi to do as such
4) For Windows only

Xandu has updated his media player application for PSP.

-Minor bugs fixed.
-Graphical fix (see screenshots).

DiagnoSe is an tool to test several functions of your NDS.

Author release notes:

Removed SRAM test and replaced it with EEPROM test. The eeprom test will test the save memory on slot-1 cards. Currently only tests type-2 (64kbit) and type-3(2mbit) I do not have any cards with type-1(4kbit) so I have not done that yet.

Also a subtle change, the icon used in the motion test should be the version DS you have, a dslite if your ds is a ds lite, or an old gray one if your ds is phat. I only have a ds lite so I havent tested that either.

t4ils has updated his remake of Worms War.

Stravingo has updated his weather information tool for NDS.

Changes:

– Addition of Central Europe, Eastern Europe and North Africa countries.
– More than 3300 cities in the included database (and always more than 40000 cities available by code).
– More cities displayed on the world map.
– Faster world map display, now at 60 FPS.
– And last but not least, faster download time of weather information: a cache is now used on a server, with a duration of one hour. So, the download time of weather data for all the cities is now of 1 minute if the data are not cached, else it’s only about 2 seconds!

AcChen is a simple to learn ‘find the matching tile’ game. It is more Arcade-Style than MahJongg. It contains a lot of different levels. Each level takes only a couple of minutes to finish.

Find two items with identical symbols. The tiles will disappear when you can ‘connect’ them with a line, which has two or less right angles in it. Green ways will work ( 2 corners ), red won’t ( 3 corners ). Advance to the next level when the board is cleared.
