in case anyone else is having this problem, i was able to get near-HD 1136x644 working, which is the actual resolution on video mode 3. It seems to be a problem with the ps3-video-mode tool in YDL6.0. I can't get it to actually go to 1280x720 fullscreen.

I think all those games are software rendered. Most of them are not "true 3d".

Most projects can be compiled from source with:

./configure --prefix=/usr
make
(as root) make install

if you're missing the boost libraries, try downloading and compiling them from here:

Overheating problems in OtherOS?

Shortly after coding in the OtherOS environment, I've been experiencing symptoms indicative of a GPU overheat. In games, I'm getting shimmering effects on certain textures, and various artifacts/glitches. I'm not sure if this is thanks to some game pushing the hardware too hard, dust, or something e...

The OtherOS framebuffer is limited to 3.5MB? I didn't know that. Still, if Xorg can get HD res, there must be a way to get it for SDL. I'd be willing to take a look at the source, but I don't have a lot of experience with graphics programing, so I may of limited help. Also, I may have to send back m...

HD Resolution on my SDL project

Hi, I'm working on a project that will eventually run from a stripped down linux distro. I'd like to forgo X11 if possible. I've been writing it using 2D SDL to the framebuffer, running everything from the command line. But I can't get a resolution higher than 640x480. The PS3 framebuffer is set to ...

Hey, good to hear from you again. You should check out PSUbuntu.com and register for the forums. I am trying to write all kinds of HowTo guides for new Linux users. I am sure you could add some useful guides. Anyway ... it's not about who did what first. You had a great idea that helped many people...

I don't think Sony is an any hurry to make RSX available. Its a question of copyright protection for them. And i'm pretty sure its blocked by the hypervisor rather than a lack of driver support. Don't expect RSX homebrew without the usual exploits/modchips/etc. However, the Cell seems to have a lot ...

Heh, you post here too Ciego?

I must admit i'm a little jealous that you took my idea, made a tutorial out of it and became the defacto Ubuntu-on-PS3 guy. No hard feelings though.

:)

Anyway, Candell has us both beat.

PSP Video Resolution

Hi, i've had some luck converting DVD movies to PSP-compliant MP4 with the resolution 360x208. It stretches to fit the PSP screen quite nicely. However, now i'm trying to convert a DVD of TV Episodes and its 4:3 resolution. I read that PSP needs resolution divisible by 16, so i did some math and fou...

Video Out?

Is there any hope for a video out either from Sony or through hacking? Could any of the jacks on the PSP be possibly used for an output? What about through hacking? I would think it would be possible to find the wires that connect to the LCD and split them so they go to an output jack as well. Obvio...

Do you think its possible that this port could be used for Video out? Is it clear how official screenshots/videos are taken, or is all that coming from SDK?
