In order to remote play your ps3 games to psvita you will need to be at 4.XX PS3 firmware because the ps3 will not recognize the Psvita at 3.XX and older firmwares. If you have a OFW you should not have any problem, but if you are using a CFW there's risks of being banned. In fact, on 4.XX PS3 firmwares you will need to connect both PSVita and PS3 to the same PSN account and being logged in on a CFW PS3 represents a risk of ban, and Sony will not only ban your account but also the devices related to it which means the PS3 and the PSVita devices and you will lose all access to PSN. I know that there's many tools that help reduce the risk of ban, but the risk is always available.
The solution for this is to use older ps3 CFWs like 3.55 that will allow you to connect you PSVita to your PS3 as a mobile device without being logged in to PSN on any device.

On older firmwares, the PS3 will not be able to recognize the PSVita as a PSVita device but you will be able to make it look like another device that PS3 recognize.

This tutorial will guide you on how to use remote play to PSVita using a PS3 on CFW 3.55 (this works on any other firmware).

You will need :
- A PS3 CFW 3.55
- A PS Vita.
- A USB cable (supplied with PS Vita) to register the PS Vita to the PS3.
- Multiman installed on PS3.

- First, open the PS3 remote play application on your PSVita. It will tell you to go on the PS3 to Settings> Remote Play Settings> register the device and select the PS Vita.
- When you get to register the device, you will not see PSVita system in the list, so choose mobile phone.
- Link the two devices with the given code on your PS3 and put the code on the PSVita when asked to put it.
- On the PS3, go to Network> Remote Play, it will ask you to enable remote playback on the device to associate.
- On the PSVita go to remote play (yes again) and choose private network connection then press ok (on the message that appears) then the connection is made.
- Now go to Multiman, and start your game.
NOTE : You can change various settings as configuration keys via the little box at the bottom right on your PSVita.

Please note that not all ps3 games are compatible and not all of them can be remote played.

Enjoy :D
