PSP Stackless 2.4.4_1
Last month, PSP homebrew developer carlosedp created a PSP port of the Stackless Python 2.4.4 programming code. Now, in case you’re one of the guys who picked up on this earlier announcement, and were looking forward to more news from the author, we’ll be updating today with some good news.
carlosedp is announcing that he’s updated PSP Stackless, with the latest version now carrying OGG, MP3 and SSL support:
- Time function returns correct date based on PSP Timezone
- OGG Vorbis support
- I have added a basic OGG Vorbis support for the port. The API is based on oggplayer from PSPMediaCenter. The problem is that i loads the entire file into memory and playbacks it from there. On MP3 this doesnt happens.. more below.
- The API for the OGG is very simple, a sample application follows at the end of the post.
- MP3 Support
- Its here! With the great help from Ghoti (thanks Rein) the MP3 streaming playback is now available transparently. What streaming means? Your application wont load the entire file into memory for playback. The application creates a buffer and loads small chunks from disk as needed. This leaves a lot of memory to the interpreter and you play with. In my tests, my interpreter have around 18Mb RAM available.
- SSL Support
- This is the latest addition. Since I cant test all its functionality, I need someone to test it for me. I made a small test where a import socket; hasattr(socket, “ssl”)returned “True” so I assumed everything was fine.
Now, in case you’re unsure about how to code using Stackless, the author is also letting the guys know that he’s set up a tutorial guide over at his site, which was based on a similar tutorial created by Sakya. Just head on over to the read link, or carlosedp’s thread over the the QJ.Net Forums for further information.
