[RELEASE] usbxmb plugin

[caliarbor]

Hi,

This plugin will allow usb bus and mass storage driver to always be enabled in xmb. When you plug in a usb cable it will activate usb on the psp (will also enable charging on psp slim). When you unplug the cable usb will deactivate automatically.

I wrote this to basically save myself the hassle of going to the usb icon eveytime i wanted to xfer files or charge my psp. I know this has been done elsewhere but i wanted to have a go at writing my first plugin

I've test this on my psp slim 3.71 m33-3 and everything works fine. When I go into a game usb is deactivated, but once I leave that game usb is reactivated (assuming the usb cable is connected the entire time of course).

If anyone wants the source just let me know and I'll fix the download to include it. Don't have it handy atm.

Edit: Clean up the source a little and added some error checking for failure of usb bus and mass storage drivers loading. The source is now included in the original download.

i've been thinking of writing something similar for a long time, thanks very much...also does it do auto detection that the other end of the usb device is connected as-well, or simple detects when it has been connected to the psp?

It will only activate USB if the cable is connected on the other end. I think the cable is only detected if voltage is present. I'm doing the check via:

int state = sceUsbGetState();
state &= PSP_USB_CABLE_CONNECTED;

Whereas state will only be a non-zero value if a cable is present and connected on both ends.

nice release
i love this pluging and really useful for me
5/5 rated by me and right on time

Awesome release. I had been using Custom Firmware Extender with mass usb enabled. But this seems much better to use. Definitely downloading.

Warning:those who use this plugin please don't try to turn on the usb from sony in the xmb because then you will get a error and the xmb will seem mess up

if this happen turn off your psp completely and then turn it back on and it will work

Hi,

I think you might be confusing this with an auto boot plugin?

I assume you intended to post in the AutoStart plugin release thread. The dev just released V2 here btw.
