With the recent release of the PlayStation Portable Firmware 4.0, Sony was quick to announce the imminent arrival of its new version 4.05 firmware update. For those of you who enjoy using your handheld as your primary music device, you will definitely get a kick out of the latest update. Eric Lempel, Director of PlayStation Network Operations, announced on the PlayStation Blog that PSP firmware update v4.05 will include new visualizers for music playback, among other features. There weren't any specifics given on what exactly the new additions were going to be like, but he assured everyone that we'll be able to find out more about it once v4.05 is released. In any case, we'll be keeping an eye out for any news regarding the upcoming firmware update. Make sure to drop by again just in case we find out any new information on it. *Article originally posted Jul 14, 2008 at 06:42AM *Update* Nice! We finally got word that PSP FW 4.05 is finally released - yeah we know we're a bit late on this (y'know how hectic the E3 event is...)! Following Eric Lempel's announcement just a few minutes ago, we now get confirmation of what's new with FW 4.05 - turns out to be quite a skimpy update. Check out the changelog: New or revised features in system software version 4.05 Music

» minor update.
why only one visualizer? nice visualizer but only minor update...i think sony makes little updates so that psp life will be longer. but that's just me..
and maybe dax will not bother to make cfw of this..maybe GEN(Miriam) but that is just my opinion.

If the NIDs are the same he won't need to. We can just swap the files.

=1 new visualizer(but nice!)

another completely pathetic update. who the hell ever asked extra visualizers? or even the moronic google search from the last update?
clearly sony is just trying to fool people into thinking the psp is actually being worked on in any real way.

I've been wanting more visualizations for a while, and I find it hard to believe that there are no custom visualization availibe, how different to the XMB wave editing can it be?

wow... more visualizers... let me go update right now!!! Hahaha.... what a ****ing joke... do we really need any more visualizers... Half the people that listen to MP3s on their PSP don't use the official Sony music player anyways...
Amirite?
I mean really... when's the last time Sony actually added a *real* new feature? If it wasn't for homebrew, The usefullness of the PSP would have died for me some time ago.
Lets take a look at all of the failures of the few features OFW has.... the MP3 player that doesn't allow on the fly playlists or song resume upon waking from sleep mode, The web browser that pops up "not enough memory" for nearly every website worth going to, the internet radio player that doesn't let you add new stations, The RSS feed reader that isn't compatible with text feeds (lmao of that) the video player that isn't compatible with the most used video formats, photo viewer with a size limit on images, should I go on? The point is, Sony half-asses everything. Instead of adding another visualization (w00t w00t) they should have been fixing the shortcomings of the features that are already in it... I mean c'mon... is it that hard to make real progress...
Thank you to the homebrew scene for giving my PSP purpose and usefulness and making up for all of Sony's shortcomings and failures.

yes it is hard to make so called "real progress". the psp is a great system. OH NO I HAVE TO CONVERT MY VIDEOS! give me a break. it isnt hard. the music player is fine. it plays music. and shuffles (it has a poor shuffle but it still does it) seriously. it works fine. RSS i dont use and smae with internet radio, why use the web browser when ive got a computer! and no. they dont half ass everything. they're limited by the hardware. it would be hard to make a pentium 3 run crysis wouldnt it? same thing applies here.

» No.
GW2 must not be in the homebrew scene cause homebrew wise, it kicks the ass of official features that the PSP runs. The homebrew web browser is better, the homebrew media players are better, the homebrew RSS feeds are better, the homebrew picture viewer is better. It's sad when a bunch of people with little documentation on the device and hardware can make better programs than those with documentations and getting paid for it.

"Half the people that listen to MP3s on their PSP don't use the official Sony music player anyways" I'm not sure about this but even if this is true the other half does, also liteMp3 keeps crashing on me and I haven't heard of any fix yet.
The last big update was back on 3.90 with Skype.
The MP3 player does resume from waking, just press Play/START. I think this was added in 1.50.
I'm pretty sure you can add new stations to the radio player otherwise what were all those homebrew downloads that kept popping up after 3.80 was released?
Yes the video player certainly needs more attention like AVI and 3GP playback, atleast 4.00 added playback speed adjustment.
What is the Homebrew Browser you're talking about? cause I'd like to try it.

Yes Equalizer, this something I have wanted right from the start. If you really want to market the PSP as a portable media player you should include a customizeable equalizer aswell as presets(for those just don't know how to use one). PSP and PS3 should have atleast a 16 band equalizer and PSP to have a Pre-AMP setting to compensate for the not-so-high volume(which seem to have got a little better between 2.00 - 3.50).

» Wow!
Some good suggestions would be
1.Analog UP: analog down for voice removal (removes the center channel like the Sega Saturn does)
2.Analog Right: Pitch up (0-12 steps up)
3.Analog Left: Pitch down (0-12 steps down) The Sega Saturn Also does this
4.Analog Down: Plays only vocals
5.Some other features like a bandstop
6.The Ability To play songs in reverse (To find subliminal messages)
7. Adjst the speed of the song without changing the pitch.
