  • Showtime 4.0 Released

    It's finally here! Showtime 4.0 official stable release. Developer Andreas Öman and his team have been hard at work as you would have seen in the testing builds reported here at psx-scene. Some might have noticed the onscreen keyboard support added a few revisions ago. The new GUI also includes the new icon by MikeS, winner of the Showtime icon contest.


    About Showtime 4.0:
    Showtime 4.0 is finally released.

    Some highlights:
    • New UI design
    • Self upgrade of both Showtime itself (only on PS3) and all plugins (all platforms)
    • Automatically load metadata from themoviedb.org
    • Improved support for subtitles (in particular external ASS/SSA files and vobsub files)
    • Support for on screen keyboard on PS3
    • Buttons on PS3 dual shock controller have changed their meaning a bit: See PS3 usage guide for details
    • Each focusable item have a dedicated popup menu (Use □ button on dual shock controller for this)
    • File browsing will sort folders first and then files. Sorting can be adjusted in the per page menu (△ on dual shock controller)
    • Lots of bug fixes
    • ... + more stuff I've forgotten


    Try it out!

    See you soon.

      Very nice, I usually only update when there's something that won't play on the version I have, but this layout and build was too nice to pass upl
      Thanks for all the hard work

      Thanks so much for this most important app! You keep making it better and better! One request -- please improve the DVD ISO support. It's getting a lot better too, but I still have some DVDs that have issues that makes them unplayable (Star Trek DS9 disc (ISO format)-- loops menu audio when I play an episode!). Also, on a side note, I used the "stDISC" to get direct disc access on Showtime, and one DVD I have plays as ISO, but, fails to play from actual disc (it plays a bit, then exits to XMB, before it gets to final menu -- I realize this could just be a prob with stDISC access). And before you ask, this is a retail PAL DVD that I cannot play through the normal PS3 player (because it's PAL -- It's "Blakes 7" S4D1). Probs aside, THANKS for the app, it's about the most useful PS3 homebrew out there!

      Love the app long time xbox1 navi x user here,the prob with this is try play any hd channel and ps3 gives out about playback being broke which is annoying as surely with 7 cpus a bit of hd playback should not be trouble the other option as i see it is to remove the hd stuff and only have sd.

      Great job. I've been waiting for this release. I noticed that the rm. rmvb. and mp4 files audio is not synced. Basically, the audio is off by seconds. I tried fixing audio settings but still no luck.

      still having problems with bd-r playback. either it crashes to the xmb or freezes the console. not sure if its because of the plug in for disc access or a bug with showtime. also i think it needs a brightness control built into the settings. other then that its a great app

      guys how to exit from showtime to multiman menu ?
    1. deank's Avatar
      deank -
      You can't exit to mM in showtime 4. Not until @andoma adds an "Exit" button/icon.

      You can only exit to XMB by pressing the {PS} button.
