PSP Hacks

by Ingrid on October 25th, 2005

Proving that the PSP is extensively hackable is LiquidIce. Over at PSPhacks, he posted a step by step guide entitled Home Control 1.0, which tells you how to set up a DNS hack, control A/V equipment, and control Winamp right on your PSP. Now, this has been around for many moons, but being that the PSP just came out in Europe not so long ago, I thought I’d dig it up, and blow the dust off of it.

This also answers Matt’s question about PSP for Winamp. Yes. It’s possible. If you’re a hacker, the sky’s the limit.

LiquidIce’s claims:

I now have the ability to turn my lights on and off. Have full control (Play, Stop, Pause, Menu) of my DVD player, TIVO, and High Def TV, all wirelessly from my PSP. I did this in a few hours using Photoshop to make some graphics. I put an image map on the graphics and created some HTML pages which are hosted on my WACI NX server. The links are crafted so that when the PSP highlights and clicks on a spot on the image map, it instructs the WACI NX server to send an IR signal to my A/V equipment or triggers it’s relays to cut power on the lights.

Gotta love gadget geniuses.
