First on the PSP... - Image 1 


Tada! DickyDick1969 updated PiMPStreamer to v0.80, which has no new features for one of the best free streaming solutions for the PSP... but lucky you if you have a PS3 or Wii in the living room! DickyDick1969 says he's extended PiMPStreamer into a fully HTTP-browsable wireless FLV video streamer, tested on a Wii.
Now the PiMPStreamer pimps PS3s and Wiis, too. - Image 1
He hasn't tested it yet, but he believes you can also use FLV-capable PocketPCs with this build. And a response to Dicky's blog says that he's also tried it on the PS3 browser, something Dicky didn't mention, and it worked nicely there - although he's asking for a video size option in a future build, since the PS3 can support higher resolutions than the Wii. Good point, too.

Basic instructions: install to PC, run PiMPStreamer, configure Opera (or the PS3 browser) to the PC's IP address at port 3333 (configurable), go forth and multiply.

Basic warnings: since this is a new feature, there may be some inevitable bugs to deal with. DickyDick1969 will be happy to hear of detailed bug reports via mail (check the source link for more info). Also, Dicky was only able to test with a wireless Wii, and is rather worried that the Wii's limited memory capacity will be enough to handle really long FLVs.

Hey - we've all enjoyed PiMPStreamer on the PSP, right? Now you can't lug around a PS3 (or even a Wii) and the TV around the house for portable media viewing... but hey, do the math:

(PiMPStreamer) + (PS3 or Wii) + (Living room couch) + (mood lighting) + (sappy chick flick) + (girlfriend of your dreams) = (the perfect Valentine evening).*

TOO BAD IT'S MARCH.

(*) The equation presented above has been verified by a panel of independent experts and found to be entirely accurate.

UPDATE: DickyDick1969 wastes no time as he has released v0.81 of the PiMPStreamer installer. He mentions that he added a new "rendersize" option which can also be of use for all you PSP Users. Please check out the article to know more about this.

does this work with WPA encrypted networks yet?


   Re: Whyser (Unregistered) - 2007-03-11
 » don't think so....

I don't think that it does... I think the WPA encryption is simply not available for 1.50 users. That being said, I find that running custom firmware does not allow me to connect to WPA encrypted routers if I'm running 1.50 kernel.

If you change the kernal to 3.xx, you should be able to connect to it, but then you wouldn't be able to run homebrew haha..

iv installed this app to my 303 oe c psp but every time i try to start it up it gets stuck on connection state 3 of 4,this is when i click on check connection.
is this because i need to open my port 3333 on my router?
if so how can i do that,im using a sky wireless router,
i know this question or part of this question has allready been answerd but iv been trying to figure it out for 3 days now and im thinking of giving up,i cant find my problem any where iv looked.

iv not long got my router and im enjoying surfing the web on my psp but i would love it if i could get this app to work and watch some stuff on me psp with out having to convert anything.
or is there anything else that i can stream video to my psp apart from the $300 location free tv player

..............psp rules..............

 » works on PS3

Wonderful, it works on PS3. I set the resolution to 480x360, which fills the screen of my crappy TV quite well.
But via PS3, there is no playback control, is there?

The framerate seems to be rather low, too. I guess there a balance to be struck between encoding power and suitable bitrate?
