Doesn't npdrm_free and nploader allow Adrenaline to load DLC?

If that was the case then "How do I have Disgaea 2 DLC work on the Vita/Adrenaline" wouldn't have gone unanswered for so long. The answer is you can't, some people claim some workarounds but apparently those don't work for everyone.

I answered you and said the same. Did you try it? Also, where did you read it apparently didn't work for everyone?

Several threads and subreddits posts. Some of them even in this forum. Anyway standalone works, I tried with both starting a new game and with the save I had, so not gonna bother with anything else. Adrenaline still works well for anything that's not PSP DLC so keeping it. May try to see if disabling my minidisc drive makes the PSP battery last longer but otherwise bye bye PSP I loved you but now I can do everything you can save playing minidisks and using the mini camera on the Vita!

What's the difference between Inferno Cache's "LRU" and "RR" settings?

Where can I find the settings.txt file?

I was told doing a full flash install and deleting VSHMENU.PRX from ARK_01234 would fix the problem. Also, if pressing "L", "R" and "SELECT" buttons to force the VSH MENU to open like I was told, it still doesn't open it until I wait some seconds (but that way, that button combination isn't needed since the "SELECT" button will also work).

What does encrypted and decrypted PSN content mean? Are encrypted PSP games in PKG format and decrypted PSP games in ISO and folder format (with EBOOT.PBP inside them)? In which format are PSN PSP games, PKG? How can RAP files be used (which might come with PSN PKG PSP games) on the PSP?

What's the difference between npdrm_free and npdrm_free_mod and nploader and nploader_mod and why doesn't the Wiki mention the npdrm_free_mod plugin (and the npdrm_free and nploader plugins) if it mentions the nploader_mod one?

Can the "Memory Stick speedup" setting break PSP games (I'm excluding this issue [the "C1-2858-3 one] which affects ARK-4 and may affect all PSP games ran from it).

Can the "Force Extra Memory" setting break PSP games?

Why and how does PS Vita's standalone ARK-4 make a sound when scrolling PSP games even with sound turned off?

EDIT: If "Force Extra Memory" is set to "Always", the PSP freezes and restarts some seconds after when exiting the european Spider-Man: Web of Shadows – Amazing Allies PSP ISO on ARK-4 while using the PS button. I'll set it to "Disabled", then.

EDIT 2: The "ICON0 in Browser" setting freezes PS Vita's ARK-4 if "Enabled" when scrolling PSP ISOs on "Files". I can exit ARK-4 via PS button and close it, but when reopening it or opening another app, it lags a lot, so I'm forced to restart the console and set "ICON0 in Browser" to "Disabled" for it to not have both issues.

    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
