I just reproduced Basenhi's 1st bug with the folders option crashing the PSP. I disabled all of my plugins and it still crashed. However, I had about 14 folders in the PSP/GAME directory (7 categories then about 6-7 homebrew programs for use when I boot in OFW mode, and the PRO Updates). I trimmed that down to five and it worked but some of my homebrew still came up as corrupt.

Also:
PSP 1001 (01g)
6.39 PRO-B9 w/CIPL

EDIT:
I changed the name of one of my folders from "Applications" to "Apps" and those homebrews that appeared as corrupt started working again, so it's the character limit thing.

Also, it duplicated the games I had in my "GAMES" category. There were 2 of every game (this was about 50% signed titles, 50% ISO/CSO).

Here is another update about this, I tried seeing the possible number of folders you can have in PSP/GAME/ directory while using the Folders option and it won't crash, and I think it's 14. I actually had 17 at the start (I miscounted, go math skills). I kept adding folders and trying accessing the Memory stick and it didn't crash until I put 15 folders in the GAME folder. Also, when I adjusted the Uncategorized (7 uncategorized files) folder to hide, it worked with the 16 folders in GAME (obviously putting the amount of items it showed to less than what was).

But all ISO/CSO/Signed Games in my "Games" category are still doubled (wasn't expecting it to change by doing this, just mentioning it).

One final note, my original set up works fine in Multi MS mode and the Contextual mode and has worked since build 1.4 r2.

EDIT (YES ANOTHER): I split my ISO/CSO files back up into their own folder and put Signed games into their own category and the duplicates disappeared BUT now my ISO files refuse to come up in the XMB. If I just put "CAT_ISO" under the ms0:/ISO directory they don't appear, and if I add "CAT_ISO" to PSP/GAME/ it freezes and crashes. Again, these problems don't exist in Multi MS/Contextual Modes.

Also, is it just me or has this Folders addition update, rendered the Theme compatibility issues that this (and Game Categories LIGHT) had non existent. Where LITE would work with Themes like the Persona 3 Theme and would freeze up on the Mac dock theme and LIGHT would freeze up on the Persona 3 type themes and work on themes like the Mac dock theme. I just tried one of each type of the themes and they all seem to work.

Sorry for so many edits, I'm just trying to get in detail about this bug.

If you have 34 Homebrew in one folder it will crash PSP.

I have had the same experience. Bsanehi, could you try boot Ultra Pandora Installer v4.c? It doesn't boot at all for me using GCLite and I'm using the same spec's as you but a 1003 PSP.

OK here is how to reproduce the bug.....

You have to have more then 8 Category in ISO & GAME

Here is my folder structure.

ISO/Games/GTA_Liberty_City.ISO
ISO/Minis/Bowling 3D.CSO
ISO/VIDEO (The video folder doesn't make a difference)
ISO/Crash

PSP/GAME/Applications/BookrMod/EBOOT.PBP
PSP/GAME/Emulators/DaedalusX64_Beta3/EBOOT.PBP
PSP/GAME/Homebrews/PSPJump/EBOOT.PBP
PSP/GAME/Playstation One/SCUS94426/EBOOT.PBP
PSP/GAME/Tools/UMDumper/EBOOT.PBP
PSP/GAME/Filer/EBOOT.PBP

If I have 8 folders it will not crash as it doesn't count the VIDEO folder but you have to count the Uncategorized folder... When I add a folder like ISO/Crash for example it will crash PSP.


Doing this I found another bug.... Which is in the delete function of folder mode.

Download this CSPSP game.

Put the Game in PSP/GAME/CSPSP/EBOOT.PBP

And try to delete the game from PSP using folder mode.

Yes, pressing triangle in Folders Mode tends to crash on just about everything for me, even trying to delete.

doesn't happen on me but this unknown file would appear and i can't even delete it (only happens if i set the category mode to Folders)

EDIT: also my games that are in ISO format are all corrupted if i set the category mode to Folders






also i already check my game folder and i don't have this file with the size of 32KB

Great plugin, everything is working great on psp 1000, though folder option seems to be faster on ME than on PRO (due to cfw maybe) , also firmware limits for ISO are correctly shown on ME, but not on PRO, they all show 1.00 - 6.60 (firmware version), for ISOs (probably due to cfw itself, just guesses though)

Problems arises on PSP Go though with folder option, on 6.39 PRo B10/MR 9.8
List of enabled plugins in vsh.txt (same order as listed in your file and with versions if possible):
Only categories_lite v1.5r3
Categories folder names (in /PSP/GAME and /ISO):
ms0:/ISO/PSP ; ef0:PSP/GAME/PSN PS1 ; ef0:PSP/GAME/Homebrew
Categories settings (mode, uncategorized, use of CAT_, etc):
Mode: Folder ; Category prefix : none
Steps to reproduce the problem:
Problem : When plugin is installed on ef0/ms0, after changing category mode to 'folder', and put show uncategorized set to 'none'(default), and restart vsh, when accessing game - system storage, all the titles in 'Homebrew' folder appears in 'PSN PS1' folder. Memory stick folders appears normal.
On folder option, when show uncategorized set to 'Only memory stick/internal storage/both', without resetting vsh, uncategorised folder appears on both efo and ms0, and also titles appear correctly. But when restart vsh on each, the 'uncategorized' folder does not show up on both ms0 and ef0, and titles in Homebrew folder would show up in PSN PS1 folder .( titles appearing in different folder problem does not occur on ms0 though, just that uncategorized does not show up after resetting vsh)
Though this seems to be 'fixed' by putting PSP Go to standby after vsh reset and then turning it back on or by going in and out of USB Connection.This would show the 'uncategorized' folder on both memory stick and internal storage... but issue appears again after vsh reset or quitting a game.

CFW version:
6.39PRO-B10/ME 9,8 (Temp)
PSP model:
White PSP GO (05g)
Optional: debug log.
Backed up, reformatted Memory stick and internal storage, tested all 1.5 versions, yet problem still persists

It's probably only me with these problems..

[beastnasty]

I'm not having any problems with cxmb on ME or Pro.
