Delivered as promised: PSPRadio v 1.18.1377

Just one week ago, homebrew mainstay developer Raf released an improved version of the already great application PSPRadio. However, some of you mentioned that the program freezes on some occasion and the owner was quick to acknowledge the problem and promised to come up with a bug-fix release.

We here at QJ recently heralded Raf as one of the gods of Playstation Portable (PSP) homebrew scene and as if to secure his much-deserved post, he just delivered what he promised: folks, we present to you the music streaming application for your handhelds, PSPRadio v1.18.1377. A lot has changed since last week and to get you familiarized with the newest version, we’ve provided the changelog.

New Features:

• TextUI: Msgbox now goes away after 3sec (not based on frames rendered anymore, but time).
• Core: (Supported by TextUI) Framerate configuration file is now set globally in PSPRadio.cfg (PLUGINS:DISPLAY_FPS)
• TextUI: Now uses GU more; which reduces flickering and improves framerate.
• TextUI: Cleaned up the way stream time and info is displayed while on fullscreen visualization mode.

Bug Fixes:

• Core: PSPRadio would crash on startup if the visualizer plugin was disabled.
• Core: PSPRadio would crash on startup if the SHOUTcast database (newdb.xml) file was empty.
• TextUI: Corrected problem where PSPRadio would crash when downloading the SHOUTcast database. (The problem was caused by lack of complete support for values -1 and -2 in the configuration files after the TextUI rendering changes.
• TextUI: Corrected problem that caused a crash when switching from TextUI3d to TextUI.
• Core: Corrected problem that caused a crash on restore from suspend mode when the wifi was enabled. Now it will also resume play.
• Core: Disabled UI rendering while shutting down; this makes sure the “shutting down” screen is not drawn over.

Raf also said that in case the text disappears in the TextUI while changing skins, just move up or down for the text to re-render. Likewise, in case you’re having problems with static IP, you can set up a proxy server in your network in PSPRadio.cfg. Last reminder, the CPU speed should be 222 when establishing Wi-Fi connection.
