Great new FAQ on viewing Flash on the PSP...

I ran across this great FAQ the Macromedia blog site with great information on using Flash on the PSP:

From the blog author's description:

Viewing Flash on PSP: My weblog is read by lots of Flash developers, but this entry is written particularly for people trying to view WWW sites with Adobe Flash content on Sony PSP devices. The new v2.7 firmware upgrade includes an Adobe Flash Player specially tailored for this gaming console. But many of the sites on the World Wide Web use Flash files which were developed and tested for fullsized computers, and so not every website will play the same on both big box and little box. In the extended entry here I'm starting up a little FAQ for viewing Flash websites on the Sony PSP. I hope the content developers who regularly read this blog can help add to the tips, and with luck we'll be able to get a final FAQ in a better location for the PSP-owning public before too long. Let's go...!

Go to the FAQ here.


(P.S. I'm going to mirror this in my General Discussion section in the forums, just in case his blog goes down for whatever reason... the mirror is here.)

Locura Personal Media Server for the PSP

Users of Sony’s PSP take note, for VillainoisMind has something that just might interest you. Their Locura Personal Media Server is a server that you install on your PC and serves all sorts of multimedia goodness to your PSP. This stand-alone Web server, which interacts with the PSP’s Web browser, gives you access to movies, audio and pictures that are stored on the PC. You can even set up RSS feeds to stream music from the PC to the PSP. Of course, since it’s a Web server, it works with all devices with a Web browser, but keep in mind that it was especially designed for the PSP. The basic version of the Web server is free, but you are restricted from downloading video or listening to streaming audio, which is kind of a bummer. With that in mind, power users may want to investigate upgrading to the $30 single-user version which has no such restrictions. And if you’re in a family of media-hungry PSP users, the $50 family version will allow up to five connections. Oh, and locura means “madness” in Spanish, but we assume that the Web server does not actually cause that terrible affliction.
