PS4 Media Player 3.50 VR patched for 5.05 (runs on non activated consoles)
Developer ps4miner has released a patched version of the PS4 Media Player (with VR support), which will run on 5.05 consoles that have not been PSN activated. This will let you play video and music through the PS4 Media Player on a hacked 5.05 console. And it will answer the question: “How do I Install Media Player on PS4 without PSN?“.
The patch escalates the player’s process to let it run with going through the regular security checks. The developer states that due to how this is just a binary patch with hardcoded offsets, this is only compatible with 5.05, and probably 5.07. On other firmwares, he expects this will not work and trying to run the app could reboot your console.
In the hacker’s own words, “it’s not the best variant of fixing this app, but it works for now (as a temporary solution).”. Users have reported this works fine, including those of us who want to use it in combination with Plex.
More details on how the patch was made can be found at the source link below.

Isn’t this sony-copyrighted software? Is that download link even allowed here?
Well it is free on PSN I’m pretty sure, the difficult part is getting it to older firmwares, because once you update to get it from psn, you can’t downgrade and jailbreak, I’m assuming I may have been the one who actually provided the original non patched version, I actually had a copy of it that was downloaded from psn and the PS4 was kept offline long enough to get the jailbreak, and kept the media player installed, with the jailbreak I was able to dump it and provide copies to others. However where this one originated from cannot be certain, it may have originated from me, maybe not.
no matter – at least we are getting there what jailbroken PS3 offers so next shall be MultiMan with built-in FTP plus ShowTime for MKVs asap 🙂
FIRST!
Also nice to have options
At least spellcheck before submitting the article.
Its homebrew
working fine on my 5.05 fw.
I get a prompt when trying to install this.
The same content has already been installed. Do you want to continue?
But I have a non activated 5.05 console and no media player app
You may if you’ve tried any other dump. Just ignore and install it works fine.
