[Feature] Mute XMB sounds (startup, ¿selected game?) #21

Closed 444nonymous closed 7 years ago

A. To mute the startup PS3 chime you just have to replace the files "coldboot_multi.ac3" and "coldboot_stereo.ac3" located in "dev_flash\vsh\resource\" with muted ones.

I did it myself because I find it really annoying. These are the files, same size and everything, just edited the volume to 0%. So muted. Rename to rar. You can include the option in webman if you feel it's worth it.

B. when the PS3 is turned on, the last XMB launched program is auto selected. If it was a game with music preview, it can't be muted. Maybe there could be an option to mute sounds in previews. Just an idea.

A. Thank you for the muted sound files :) I was needing them. I also find the boot sound very annoying.

I don't plan to include them in webMAN, since it's a CFW mod. I think you can suggest it to DeViL303 to include it in his XMBPD store. If you prefer I can tell him.

B. Very good idea. I haven't tried but I think that redirecting /dev_bdvd/PS3_GAME/SND0.AT3 to a another location should solve the issue.

I'll do some tests. If I have success, I may include in /setup.ps3 the option to mute SND0.AT3 on startup.

Now there is a "No SND0.AT3" option in /setup.ps3 http://aldostools.org/temp/test/webMAN_MOD_1.45.01_Updater.pkg

Webman is broken in the test build.

No FTP and "the page cannot be accessed" in the web browser when you try to do anything.

I've been able to test another buid, but it is very buggy, icons and "save / restart / etc" in webman options are missing.

The feature works fine for the current loaded game using webman, both autoloaded at start or manually loaded at any time. It also works after mounting / unmounting successive games. So no problems.

It does not work if the last game played was a PSN installed game with it's own permanent launch icon in the Games root column. I'm not sure if webman can do anything to disable the SND0.AT3 when selecting games / apps loaded from different paths in the hdd instead of /dev_bdvd/

Another idea. Maybe you can force "webman games" icon to be selected when turning the PS3 on, instead of the icon below (1st icon of APP / PSN game in Games Column root)

Tested and working fine for the iso loaded in the final build https://github.com/aldostools/webMAN-MOD/commit/435f0056fa143cfee1465a06226beabe294497ab
