multiMAN - multifunctional tool for your PS3 (Game manager/File manager/FTP/AVCHD/BDMV)

[flip]

this might sound stupid, but isn't MM supposed to auto-fix permissions in games? I put a new HDD on my PS3 and transfered via ftp my games back to the new HDD... tried to run Demon's Souls , MM exited and brought me back to XMB, I naturally selected the BD icon (that was demon's souls like it should be) but the ps3 hang into limbo with a black screen... I had to manually fix permisions for all games I re-transfered... IIRC in the past MM asked to fix permissions, now it did not (v2.00.04)

Yep, same problem here.

Let me quote myself:

Hey Dean,

I think I may have found a bug.

I installed 02.00.05 (without any following updates - just the package from the first page) yesterday. Today I launched a game, which I had never played before. So I launched it and it didn't worked. Then I noticed that multiMAN hasn't set the Access Permissions automatically (which worked well with previous versions).
Then I chose "Permissions" in the sub-menu and after that the game worked perfectly.

Anyone else noticed that?

Good to know that I'm not the only one with this problem

Yes, you can update online and you'll get this same update.

Thanks you.One little change i found after 2.00.03-04 version is that the 8x4 mode is more slow than in previous version.The cover flow is amazing so fast than before and the 8x4 is more slow.I dont know why.

but when I install the update I have to install the Multimania bdemu2 and lv2?

It is not "slower". It draws all icons at once and not one by one (it was requested 100's of times since I changed it to 1-by-1, so I changed it back). Actually it is a bit faster.

shoaibps3: Nah, that's not really his job.

I certainly agree with that, 100%. The multiMAN project has absolutely nothing to do with porting emulators.
But I think 'shoaibps3' is one of those guys who has completely misunderstood the new emulator support of multiMAN.
He probably believes (like many others have also stated) that multiMAN now includes all these emulators as part of itself, which is of course completely false.

Each of the emulators now supported by multiMAN is an entirely separate project (as you know better than most), and is installed as a separate package into its own separate game installation folder, having absolutely NOTHING in common with the installation folder of multiMAN.

The only thing such an emulator has in common with multiMAN is that both are 'aware' of the existence of the other, and know in which installation folder it 'lives'. And it is this that allows multiMAN to invoke an emulator when the user chooses to run a ROM in the retro menu of multiMAN, and it is also how such an emulator can know how to exit back to multiMAN when the user chooses to leave the emulator using such a command.

NB: Of course I know that you are fully aware of these facts squarepusher2, so my statements above are for the benefit of other site members, who may have misunderstood the situation as badly as 'shoaibps3' must have done.

Somebody needs to hack the pre-existing Sony PS1 emu - that's the only thing that is needed - don't waste your time porting any PS1 emu - it's already been tried before and speed/emu compatibility is just not up to snuff. It's never going to lead anywhere - we just need the hacked PS1 emu (which Team Cobra already accomplished).

That is one way to do it, but a new port would be equally welcome to me. Your statement that "speed/emu compatibility is just not up to snuff" is not necessarily true for a new port just because it is an apt description of the known failed ports. The mere fact that one working emu exists, though we lack control over it, is sufficient proof that another port could also be equally successful. The big question is whether it is more practical to redo the work of 'Team Cobra' or to make a new high quality port from scratch.

But such speculation really belongs in an emulator forum anyway, so not in here...

2° The Rom in which directory should be placed?

3° What is the extension of the Rom Snes9x, Genesis FCEU, VBA, FBA Emulator?

4° Why the rom with this extension (NES) will not work?

5° How do I use the screenshot in Multiman ,where they are saved?

6° Because I can not vissualizare icons emulators?As you can see from the image's http://img806.imageshack.us/img806/7444/cf4x.jpg

grazie

No, it isn't.

Sorry, but I'm pretty sure it is Don't get me wrong...I don't wanna tell you what YOUR programm is supposed to do and what not. But in every previous versions multiMAN fixed the permissions automatically.
