PSP XMB - Image 1

I’ll let PSP homebrew developer jojojoris set up the situational circumstance here:

Imagine: You are bored in boring math class. Your teacher is boring and the whole school is boring. You want to play a game on your psp. So you turn on your psp and then it happened. Last time you play on your psp you forget to turn the sound off. You hear the StartUp sound of your psp. The teacher heared it also and you have to gave your psp to the teacher.

Well, it’s not that we condone you guys not listening to class, it’s more of us trying to help you not get your PSP confiscated. VolDown instantly turns your PSP’s volume to zero upon start up. Just make sure that when you turn on your PSP, you boot it on Recovery menu and activate the plugin.

  1. Copy “VolDown.prx” to ms0:seplugins
  2. Add the following line to ms0:sepluginsvsh.txt:
    • ms0:sepluginsVolDown.prx
    • (you don’t have to add this line to game.txt)
  3. Turn off your PSP.
  4. Hold R while you turn your psp on again.
  5. In recovery go to plugins and enable VolDown.prx
  6. Close recovery.
  7. In XMB turn the volume to maximum.
  8. RestartYour PSP.
  9. Confirm that it works.
  10. Jump 3 times in the air and post a comment where you say that this has saved your life.

As always, plugins have their uses no matter how small a purpose. They may not fit your purposes, but someone out there will eventually find some use for it. (Don’t be hating the developer – they’re only sharing their work and trying to help others.) Jojojoris admits that a simple work around is to plug in some earphones, but as he states, not everyone has a pair ready.
