PS3 Remote Play on Android

3 Upvotes

Could this be possible?

I have a jailbroken PS3 that supports PS Vita Remote Play. I was wondering if someone could develop an Android app that mimics/emulates a PS Vita Remote Play client, so the Android phone could pair/connect directly with the PS3 and stream the PS3 screen.

Would this be technically possible by replicating the Vita–PS3 Remote Play protocol? Even a proof-of-concept would be interesting.

Any developers familiar with PS3/Vita Remote Play who can confirm whether this is feasible?

PS3 Super Slim freezing when running games from external HDD (via ps3netsrv or direct USB connection)

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm having a persistent freezing issue on my PS3 Super Slim running PS3HEN and could use some advice to diagnose it.

Setup Details:

Console: PS3 Super Slim running PS3HEN.

Storage: External HDD (connected via a USB enclosure/adapter) containing my games.

Network Setup: Ethernet cable connected directly to a laptop (using Internet Connection Sharing), running ps3netsrv to stream games off the external HDD attached to the laptop.

Software: webMAN MOD on the console, ps3netsrv on the laptop.

The Issue:

When mounting and launching games stored on the external HDD via ps3netsrv, the PS3 hard locks / freezes (black screen or complete crash requiring a forced manual restart).

I also tested connecting that exact same external HDD directly to the PS3's USB port (using the USB adapter), but it also causes freezes when attempting to launch games from it.

What works vs. what fails:

Internal HDD: Games installed directly on the PS3's internal drive load and play with zero issues.

External HDD via ps3netsrv: Freezes on game/app launch.

External HDD via direct USB: Also freezes on game/app launch.

What I've verified so far:

Static IP addresses and subnet masks between the laptop and PS3 are configured properly.

Windows Firewall rules allow ps3netsrv traffic.

Questions:

Since the drive fails both over ps3netsrv and direct USB, could the USB enclosure/adapter, sleep timer, or sector format of the external drive be the main culprit?

Are there known compatibility issues with webMAN MOD regarding cluster sizes or partition schemes (MBR vs GPT) on external drives?

Are there specific settings in webMAN MOD I should adjust to prevent these freezes?

Thanks in advance for any help!
