Custom download locations for the PSP browser?

Post by psvpwner » Sun Feb 22, 2015 12:40 am

Not sure which forum this fits in since I primarily thought of using this in TN-V on my Vita, but it's really PSP software... Anyhow:

I've been thinking about the most convenient way to put new PSP homebrew content on my Vita, and figured the PSP web browser is really good for this stuff. CMA is fast and quite reliable for bigger files but really very inconvenient, VitaFTP is really nice when you just want to poke around and put some small stuff on the virtual Memory Stick but unfortunately seem to be capped at 50KB/s and actually gives me corrupted files as a result from time to time... So I've been using the web browser quite a bit (connecting to the Apache server running on my LAN that hosts my PSP homebrew archive, it's not exactly great for browsing the web anyway).

(tl;dr here!) Anyway, to the question: Whenever you download something with the official PSP browser it lets you choose where to save the file, I get to choose from:

/PICTURE
/MUSIC
/VIDEO
/PSP/COMMON
/PSP/PHOTO
/PSP/MUSIC
/MP_ROOT/100MNV01
/MP_ROOT/101ANV01

and when you pick one, you actually get to choose one of the available sub folders if there are any.

This makes me think, is there possibly a plugin available to extend this with your own options, or simply put an option for " / " there (if the sub folder choices work recursively)?
This would be super convenient as I could then download pre-packaged homebrews directly to /PSP/SAVEDATA/ECFW01234 where I can just use TN-V's built in Install feature.
Or how about expanding TN-V to look in /PSP/COMMON for zip files aswell (although the former option allows for more options overall, if you want to put specific files somewhere directly).

At the moment I have to load up PSPFiler and use it's built in feature to manually unzip things which isn't too bad anyway, but the possibility of even easier ways seem tempting to me.

here is simplysaver. it is a psp plugin for 6.60 that allows you to save anything you download ANYWHERE on your memory stick. Enjoy

Wow, excellent!!
Thank you so much! I wonder why this didn't show up when I was googling around, maybe I didn't use the right keywords...

I can happily announce that this works great with TN-V! It even lets me move recursively (well pretty much anyway, for some reason I can't enter any subfolder of /PSP/GAME, but other places are fine). I couldn't really ask for anything better, this is exactly what I was hoping for! :D :D
