[WIP Tutorial] Stream PS3 to PSP (Music, Photo, Video & Emulators)

[opiate81]

I wrote this tutorial back in 2006-07 when the PSP was in its prime and an XBOX1 with XBMC was all the rage

I did not have a PS3 back then so could never test this on it, now I do & will update this when I have the chance.

I do not know about the vid,music & photo streaming part as I dont know where the files are stored in the PS3 (dont have any on there yet)

The Emulators will work though by putting the PSP emu in with the roms for that system on the PS3.

I know this is incomplete & outdated probably, but for those of you who know Linux & PSP its more than enough info to run with
---

This is my guide to streaming Emulators, Music and Video to the PSP from either the XBOX, PS2 or PS3 (untested)
You will need:
1 PSP (capable of running IRShell)
1 of either an XBOX, PS2 or PS3 running Linux
(I use my XBOX with XDSL)
1 WIFI Router (to plug into the console)
Nethosts for Linux (included)

Now Im guessing you have Linux installed on your console (not sure if a livecd will work?)

Boot up Linux and mount your original XBOX partitions
1 - Open an X Terminal
2 - Become root by typing in su. You will then need to enter the root password for Linux (XDSL- User: root PWD: xbox or User: dsl PWD: dsl)
3 - Make a directory for where you want to mount the Xbox partition using mkdir /mnt/F
4 - Type mount -t fatx /dev/hda55 /mnt/F to mount the F partition on /mnt/F
You should now be able view your XBOX partitions from within Linux
The next step is to make it so your XBOX partitions are mounted automatically
open an X Terminal, type su to become root followed by nano /etc/fstab
then enter this
/dev/hda55 /mnt/F fatx umask=000,auto 0 0

That is the hard part out of the way
From here you need to be able to FTP to your console (or manage another way to transfer the nethosts file)

Go to the root of your partition that has your Emulators/Music or Movies (eg: F:/)
And simply transfer your nethosts file to that destination
Now you need to transfer your eboot.pbp (and any other files) from your PSP emulator into the corresponding XBOX emulator folder if you want to use the roms from your XBOX Emulator
eg: copy files out of SNES9x TYL to the SNES Emulator folder on your XBOX
that way your XBOX SNES emulator can still run the roms on that and your PSP can use the same roms
Finally go back to Linux and navigate to your nethosts file and click on it
Now you can stream to IRShell (If you have IRShell you already have a guide to setting up nethosts on the PSP side so read the readme) exactly as you would from a PC running Windows/Linux

Please note that this is untested on a PS3 but I figure if it can run Linux it can do the rest
Also a MASSIVE thankyou must go to Ahman for creating IRShell
and Dark Alex for nethosts
(sorry for my grammar Im lazy)

Not meaning to sound negative but you can do all of the media streaming through remote play. I can even watch films/listen to music etc. that are streamed from my pc to my ps3 on my psp using remote play without any issues.

Now the emulators part sounds interesting

hehe yeah like I said its probably outdated in a lot of ways..
I clean forgot about remote play I'll re-jig this just for emulators then as that is all its really useful for.

Just quickly then so this thread is useful until I do it properly.
1) Transfer Nethosts to dev_hdd0.
*2) Transfer your PSP emulator to PS3
3) Run Nethosts on PS3 Linux
4) Run your PSP Emulator on PSP through iR Shell in nethost mode.

* I dont think many PSP emus have file explorers. Example of my folder:
dev_hdd0 --> Snes9XPS3 --> Roms
I use Snes9X PS3 to navigate to the roms folder to play on the PS3
Put PSP Snes9xTYL inside the Snes9xPS3 folder then both PSP & PS3 can access the roms.

This will be more useful when the PS3 overtakes the XBOX1 as my emulation centre. I dont like having to have emulators stored in 3 different places (PSP,PC,PS3)
