Most homebrew screenshots are done by embedding the support for screenshots directly in the homebrew app. There isn't any such support in the OS AFAIK, but I can only assume you could do this with a dev kit. Perhaps gamestop has a dev kit? Or maybe just a really steady camera setup :-D
There have been a couple posts about how the dev kits work on this forum, just use the search tool and you'll get a bunch of hits. As to whether or not they can take screenshots, I don't remember reading any information either way.
i've programmed an xbox screenshot application, i'd be willing to code one for this too. Unfortunately, I'm completely new to PSP. I'm one of those "downgraders" so I'm trying to learn everything I can on how the PSP works, etc.
I will release one tonight if you want.
But is not very good. Because in the time you save the image the Os is change (sorry i can't explain that in english ... lol) so the picture does not often look good.
(dude my english teacher will kill me for my english ... lol)
You'll find a screenshot application which can take a screenshot at http://svn.ps2dev.org/listing.php?repna ... rev=0&sc=0 but no OS loader is integrated and perhaps the PNG lib is too large for a background process, but you could use the rest of the program, like VRAM start and pixelformat detection.

would this stay resident in games or homebrew? i'm not sure how that would work since the PSP resets itself. I'll read through the information you provided me.
Ok, I have to go to my GF, so I don't have much time.
Here is a little beta version, it will automatically take screens to "ms:/", the vsh boot up need a bit time. I will release a new version + source tomorrow ;)
It's not very good ;)
Would you mind explaining how this works? It seems as if screen is set to 1 at the end of loadprx, so that screenshot never gets called. Am I missing something?
