Open Remote Play BETA http://code.google.com/p/open-rp/Wouldn't it be cool if you could run Remote Play from your laptop, desktop, or perhaps your phone?
After 2 weeks of hardcore reverse-engineering, now you can!
I would like to thank Dark_AleX for hacking the PSP. Without his work, ORP would not be possible. I would also like to thank TyRaNiD for psplink and prxtool. Using psplink makes this type of work almost painless! Thanks to jas0nuk for the essential PRXdecrypter utility.
Thanks to Greg for the MacBook loan and beer!
Thanks to MohammadAG for the virtual keyboard idea!
If you connect your SIXAXIS or DualShock 3 controller to your PC before you start Open Remote Play, it should be detected and automatically configured. Remember to press the PlayStation button to activate the controller.
For Windows users, you require to download and install the DualShock driver: http://www.motioninjoy.com/
Ensure that the controller is functioning properly by testing it using the Game Controllers program found in the Control Panel.
The player currently implements these keyboard bindings:
ENTER X SPACE Triangle F1 Triangle F2 Square F3 Select F4 Start ESCAPE Circle PAGE-UP L1 PAGE-DOWN R1 ARROW KEYS D-Pad HOME PS Button BACKSPACE Square
CTRL-1 Select bit-rate: 1024k CTRL-2 Select bit-rate: 768k CTRL-3 Select bit-rate: 384k CTRL-D Toggle through window sizes (normal, medium, and large) CTRL-F Enter/exit full-screen mode CTRL-S Toggle the status OSD on/off CTRL-Q Quit Remote Play
Virtual keyboard: NOTE: This is a hack and is bound to be buggy!
While you are in a PS3 text-input dialog, you can enter virtual keyboard mode using CTRL-ENTER. The window caption will be appended with "Virtual Keyboard Mode". While in this mode, keys pressed on your real keyboard are translated in to D-Pad presses followed by X to speed up text entry. The right and left arrow keys send L1/R1 and the ENTER key sends a line-break instead of X. Always ensure that the letter 'g' is high-lighted before entering virtual keyboard mode, or after you've moved the cursor manually.
To exit virtual keyboard mode, press CTRL-ENTER again.
There are no keyboard bindings for the following controller input: The right/left analog sticks, L2, R2, L3, and R3.
NOTE: On Apple laptops, you may have to hold down the Fn key to access some of the above keys.
The player currently implements the following mouse support:
While in full-screen mode, mouse motion deltas are sent as PSP D-Pad events while the ALT key is held down. In window-mode, mouse motion does nothing. The mouse buttons are mapped the same as when you plug a USB mouse in to the PS3:
LEFT BUTTON X RIGHT BUTTON Triangle MIDDLE BUTTON Home
WHEEL UP D-Pad Up WHEEL DOWN D-Pad Down
You require a PlayStation Portable (or access to one), that is able to run homebrew software.
After installing the application on your PC, you need to import existing RP settings from a registered PSP. The steps are as follows:
1 - If you have not done so already, register your PSP with your PS3 for Remote Play.
2 - Copy the ORP_Export folder to your PSP under /PSP/GAME
3 - Run Open Remote Play Export on your PSP. This will create a file on the memory stick called export.orp. Copy this file to your PC.
4 - Run the ORP GUI and click on Import, locate and import export.orp. You will have to manually change the IP address of your PS3, by default it will be set to 0.0.0.0.
You can find your PS3's IP address from the XMB under:
Settings > Network Settings > Setting & Connection Status List5 - Click Import again, this time locate and import keys.orp. You only have to do this once for a new installation, or if there is a key update.
6 - Select a profile, cross your fingers, and click Launch!
NOTE: You can duplicate a profile by changing the PS3 Name and clicking Save. This is useful if you wish to keep two profiles, one for the local LAN, and another for Internet connections.
