PSN Download Manager v3.87

[The Central Scrutinizer]

PlayStation Download Manager / Booster is an application designed to increase the download speeds of the PlayStation Network, it can install both free and paid content as long as you've paid for it.

Hi, I've noticed some sites not linking to my site and misleading people into downloading old versions such as 3.82 containing various bugs, and seems very few sites clearly stated that 3.83 is released which resulted in a decline of users, due to the bugs present.

All I ask is, if possible when publishing a copy of this article or rewriting it for your site please please make sure you use the link provided rather than uploading it as an attachment on your site, if it's not possible then attach the file but make sure there is a link saying something like "Get the latest version, here" I'd be ever so grateful for this being acknowledged.

Now with that little speech out of the way, here is what version 3.87 has to offer:

Download: PS Download Manager 3.87

1) A few minor changes to the core, increasing responsiveness and should fix crashing or not starting up for many users. (Important part of this update)

2) Reduced size of the file, from 636KB to 488KB removed some old files which are no longer used.

3) Reverted the cache folder to it's original of Downloads rather than Shared. (You can now change this without breaking features of the application)

I urge anyone who's used versions prior to this, for a fresh install in a new location on your hard drive so the settings are reset to default values, you may however copy / move your downloads folder in with the new version and it should remain functional.

Now hurry up, and download it! The playstation store is due to return within the next 24 hours for Europe and America with a nice big Welcome Back pack, expect the PSN to be slow so use my application to grab it at the full speed, please note users not using my application will most likely find there downloads going slower because of the users using PSN Download Manager lol

Have fun, leeching your free content

A little message, for my buddy PS3 News could this be put on the main page, as other websites have copied the article but not provided a link to the latest version as this happened when I released 3.82 followed by 3.83 to patch it but only 3.82 appeared on other sites misleading users into downloading a faulty version.

Current Version (3.87 | 01/06/2011) - Download Now (Free)

Description:

PlayStation Download Manager / Booster is an application designed to increase the download speeds of the PlayStation Network, it can install both free and paid content as long as you've paid for it.

In order to create a speed boost, it creates multiple segments which will draw data from the servers using multi-threading, this allows you to achieve the maximum speed of your line; unlike the PS3 which uses only 1 transfer.

Your PC can also be faster at downloading in general due to several factors, including it's connection method, processor speed, RAM and TCP Optimizations.

Snippet from change log: [3.83]
1) Support added for web browsing, some image glitchs (Fixed by disabling .PNG cache)
2) TV on demand is now working (Excluding BBC iPlayer - Unknown reason, BBC's fault. )
3) Support for premium member login / logout
4) Proxy no longer crashes when launch web / folding at home (F@H won't load work loads still)
5) Several stability changes
6) New toolbar at the top, for easy to find controls.
7) Youtube can now be watched via the browser
8) (New Models) Sony Bravia TV's can connect via the proxy for most services
9) Playstation Portable support has been confirmed (Tried on my PSP)
10) Designed to work with the NGP from Sony (PSN should work the same, in theory.)
11) Added support for 10 languages (Including English)

Snippet from change log: [3.87]

1) A few minor changes to the core, increasing responsiveness and should fix crashing or not starting up for many users. (Important part of this update)

2) Reduced size of the file, from 636KB to 488KB removed some old files which are no longer used.
3) Reverted the cache folder to it's original of Downloads rather than Shared.
(You can now change this without breaking features of the application)

Setting Up Your Console:

1. Start Your Playstation Console
2. Under Network Settings, Choose Custom.
3. When it asks for Proxy, set it to Use.
4. Enter your IP Address given by running Internal IP.bat
5. Enter the port as 27
6. Save the changes, start PSN DM.exe

Using the Application:

1. Start a download from the PSN
2. When it says "Please Wait" Press Circle

You'll notice it is now displayed in the Download Manager, once finished, proceed with the following to Transfer onto the Playstation...

3. Go back and Download the Content / File again, it should transfer from the PC...

Hope you, enjoy the updates; you might need to look at the ext.txt as it depends on which functions you want, as some files cause issues.

Common User's use the following:

.PUP
.MNV
.MP4
.PKG

You might find more file types related to applications, in the Log.txt and if you do then simply add it into the ext.txt to use the download manager to handle this file type, remember some file types will cause conflict with applications on the console.

Yeah, that is why people were "direct downloading" it and attaching it to the news on other sites.

AD.FLY is the worse, it might shorten your URL and paid you a few bucks for every 1,000 clicks, but it is horrible.

I find it really bad outside of USA geo-block IP ranges, you get nothing, or 404, or very bad pop-ups.

They should just have one nice paid sponsor ad on the program itself, but no they are not happy with that it seems, using URL redirects with ads, and their website has "clicksor" which is real joke causing even more pop-ups!

and than please wait but than nothing
