If anybody of u tested that let me know what is faster(and yes i dont mind losing that single usb port)
That can write a simple plugin which will periodically trigger HDD to keep it awake when PS TV is on?
I know, no sane person would actually want to play this game. But I do. However, it always shows the game as "corrupted data" in Adrenaline. Things to note:
I've verified using Duckstation on PC that the .PBP I created works.
I've also tried loading the game in Retroarch on my PSTV (both the .PBP and the .BIN/.CUE)and while it does boot, it has tons of graphical glitches that make it completely unplayable.
If anyone has any insight on the subject or knows a place that would be better suited to help, I'd appreciate it.
Has anyone managed to get switch controllers, preferably wired ones, working on the PSTV? I've looked at the compatible 3rd party controller thread but it doesn't say on there. Are there any plugins to enable switch controllers to work?
Otherwise what are the cheapest alternative controllers that can work with it?
I can’t figure out how to get my PS Tv to recognize my PS4 controller that’s 3rd party. I’ve tried everything and I still can’t get it to recognize it.
Can't wait to play Soul Sacrifice Delta!

Anyone ever managed to get one of these suckas working on their VitaTV?
If so, I'd be really grateful to know how - got a fair few kicking around and the prices of new DS4s are never coming down again.
I got the sub reopened because I do believe people are still playing and want to talk about what they are playing, or get help with what they want to play!
I mentioned in the 'reopening announcement' sticky post that I don't believe in over-moderation, so I'm not going to be posting daily questions, megathreads, that kind of stuff. But considering nothing has been posted on this sub in nearly a year, I'm wondering what the current 'state of play' is (excuse the awful pun!)
So I ask you, the community, are you still playing? And if so, how often? And of course, if you are playing, what are you playing? Let everyone know in the comments, and maybe we can encourage people to starting talking about the PSTV again and maybe even finding some new games to play! 😁
I was going through my community list a few days ago, unfollowing some subs that I'm not interested in any more, and saw the r/VitaTV sub hadn't had any new posts in almost a year. the reason being, the current mods and turned on post request, and then seemingly abandoned Reddit...
While Sony considers the VitaTV a "legacy" device, judging from posts on various other Playstation and Vita subs, there are still a lot of people using the VitaTV, or who want to use it but can't easily ask questions. Therefore, I asked Reddit to give me mod access, so that I could reopen the sub and welcome people back to posting.
I am neither a Sony employee, nor tech/Vita expert. So this is still a very much unofficial 'by the fans for the fans' sub. I don't expect there to be a ton of actively here and I also don't believe in over-moderation. As long as the sub is actively and available, users are posting relevant content and questions and remaining civil and welcoming in all interactions with the sub, I'm cool with that.
I'll probably come up with some new community guidelines in the next few days, and decide on what can and can't be talked about on here, but in the meantime, feel free to start posting again, or even just pop a comment below to say hello.
Cheers,
AJ
Hi
So my Vita TV is reported as 90% charged. This causes PSP games to always have a battery indicator that it is charging. Any way to fix that?
edit:
I found a fix:

Removes the battery charging graphic for most screens. It's only there when you close a game
I recently downloaded the Streets of Rage 2 Remake port for Vita. It's absolutely brilliant with widescreen support and much more. However is there a way to connect a second controller to be able to play in 2 player mode?
I haven't been able to find a mod for Vita TV to enable two player support.
I used this video for modding my vita and it worked flawlessly.
https://youtu.be/_f3Bb5qYpB8?si=zj6L-ySd_QNkJsoU
Can I follow these same steps to mod the pstv? He doesn’t say specifically yes or no in the video but wanted to double check.
Also, I’d like to be able to play the games on my vita on the pstv as well. Once I mod the pstv am I able to simply take the sd2vita out and put it in the pstv and resume play? Or are there more steps involved in that case?
I'm trying to find a good HDMI Switcher to run all my (non 4k) consoles through, so i don't have to swap cables around whenever I wanna plug something into my cap card and play it on my Computer Monitor/Stream it. Does anyone know if this HDMI Switch will strip the HDCP and actually let my Capture Card detect it?
As the title suggests, I'm having an issue where I can only set my PS TV to 480p. To give some detail, I have an American PlayStation TV running Henkaku Enso CFW. The PS TV is plugged into my Elgato 4K60 capture card which is outputting to a 1080p television. When I go to Sound & Display in Settings and open Resolution, I see Automatic selectable and 480p selectable, but between them, 720p and 1080i are greyed out and not selectable. Adding the CFW the other day was admittedly the first time in YEARS I've used my PS TV, so if this is a quirk of CFW or something and I'm just an idiot, someone please let me know. If it's not, does anyone have any insight as to why it's not letting me set the resolution at 720p? Having it set to Automatic always outputs 480p seemingly regardless of the game.
Thanks for reading, and I appreciate any advice that anyone can give. Below is a screenshot of my Resolution options for reference.
Using the "Enso Mod" has made me love the PSTV even more! The world is your oyster after installing this mod! Using the "Sharpscale" and "Vita Shell - Frame rate" apps/plug-ins work wonderfully and put my ROG Oled gaming monitor to really good use! I'm on cloud 9 even after playing games on Vita/PSTV for eons. Making the decision to FINALLY install this mod was one of the best decisions I've ever made (gaming-wise). Modders, thanks for picking the ball where Sony left it!
Does anyone know the Japanese website tksm.awobread?
Anyone purchased there before? They are not reachable via their email or their phone number.
Sony launched years ago a Press edition wich is basically a bunch of PS4 adds; very bad, Sony
What are your thoughts guys?

I just got a PS TV and I cannot get any controllers to pair wirelessly to it. They'll work perfectly fine when connected via USB but do not connect once the cable is disconnected. I started by just plugging it in and pressing the PS button, which lets it connect, but as soon as I unplug it from the console the controller turns off and pressing the PS button does nothing. I've tested one DS3 and two DS4s with the same results.
I'm worried that this particular unit may just have a bad bluetooth radio. I got it off eBay for really cheap because it didn't turn on, which I was able to get fixed, but it's definitely possible that there is more wrong with it. The wifi also appears to not work.
Anyone have any troubleshooting ideas or maybe a creative way I can still use a wireless controller if the bluetooth just doesn't work?
What kind of power cable can I use for the PS TV other than can official psp one and those counterfeit Chinese ones. I used a fake psp charging cable and my system wouldn't boot (no surprises there) then USB to DC which made my system boot up but it didn't supply any power to the USB port on my system, therefore I couldn't connect a controller.
So please, can anyone help me find a decent charger that can make my PS TV work. I cannot find an official psp charger anywhere so I'm looking for a good alternative. Thanks.
