they did NOT

I use my PSP as my remote for my TV!

im on 3.71m33-3 and irshell rocks!






SOny removed it on the slim though

unofficial irshell forums Wrote:This is easy to get NO ONE here can give it to you. Sony removed the PRX needed for infrared from FW3.71 - You need to get the sircs.prx yourself:

step 1: Download PSARdumper M33 from here: http://irshell.org/showthread.php?tid=371 (follow the readme to install it)
step 2: Download the official Sony 3.52 firmware update Eboot. If you don't have it, google it.
step 3: Put the Sony 3.52 firmware EBOOT.PBP in the root of your memory stick.
step 4: Start up the PSARdumper once. In the program you will have a few options. Choose SQUARE.
step 5: After you finish, you will boot back to the XMB. Now either use USB or iR Shell's directory view to go to the ms0:/F0 folder which will get created in the root of your memory stick. Look inside the ms0:/F0/KD subfolder for sircs.prx
step 6: Now copy the sircs.prx to the ms0:/IRSHELL/SYSTEM folder and your infrared remote codes should work.

So now im confused...this can't be how to get it to work on slim, as slim still has no ir port

The quote you gave has nothing to do with the slim,

As you said the slim has no IR port,

The quote you gave is about how to obtain the sircs.prx for use in 3.71m33 on the fat as it was removed by sony,

ok I just got confused for awhile/ /

I checked my ms for that prx and it wasn't there.
so I checked my flash0 and it was there. . .SO I am still wondering how it got there if sony removed it from 3.71 and im on 3.71m33-3


and it mist be for psp-1000 since its the only psp with IR. . .

but thanks for pointing that out roberth

maybe DAX included it in the 3.71 m33?
