PS3 - RemotePlay

I recently left M33 customfirmware for Sonys offical Playstation Portable PSP firmware (version 3.93).

No loss, actually. Sony is really getting to grips with the whole media home experience. And I hate be left behind when Sony is racing along with new features all the time for this killer combo.

But there is still a lot of “missing features” and tuning that has to be done for the features that’s there.

I posted a little comment on the playstation blog here, about what I feel has to be done to the RemotePlay feature.

I love my PSP and PS3, especially with Remote Play!

But I would like a little more tuning to when I’m able to connect.

Currently my PS3 has to be switched off, or listening for connection for my PSP to connect (I have the last but one FW for my PS3 “pre 2.20″, and 3.93 on my PSP).

I’d like it to be so that if I connect my PSP with RemotePlay to a running PS3, it’ll connect if no “counter meassure” is taken on the PS3 locally.

This ofcourse assumes that the PS3 is running in a RemotePlay compatible mode (RemotePlay enabled game, XMB, Folding@Home, etc).

When running something, and PSP attempts to connect, the PS3 should notify the local user to press the PS button or something within 5 seconds or so to reject the connection. If not rejected the PSP is allowed control.

The PSP should get appropriate error messages, like “Connection rejected by local user” or “PS3 running RemotePlay incapable game/activity”.
