So seems SilicaAndPina took the tools provided last week by CBPS and made a simple to use GUI for the rest of us. This takes any save file found on the net and signs it for use on the PSV/PSTV/PS3 for use. Just gave it a shot and it seems it's fairly easy to use and supports any format of saves you may have.

PS12PSV

Convert .mcs and .gme saves to .psv
I manifested my intent of "Continuing your childhood PS1 Saves on your PS3" into this program,
this is my will, SO MOTE IT BE!!!

this is something I learned from @Berion . psx saves start with SC in the text field. you can find it in an mcs and extract manually. though, this make it easier.
 
yes, it's from SC all the way to the end of the file for mcs (8,192 bytes per block). the header has the save name, which I don't believe is actually part of a save (only for that format).
 
And from "MC" Memory Card image. ;)

Anyway, PS3 PSV Resigner v1.0 only correcting sign. If this app rebuilding whole header (that's why it needs *.mcs? because in RAW saves there is nothing more than save data, and save name is stored on first memory block) this is much more handy than older tool. Cool!

supports any format of saves you may have.

No, in readme mentioned are only *.mcs (which is single save + specific header) and *.gme (which is specific memory card image, and this is strange choose as DexDrive format sucks ;)). But anyway, of course it is easy to convert to supported formats by MemorycardRex so it is not a problem.

Didn't notice as it converted any saves I had. Thanks for the heads up.
 
yeah, I noticed that the file name isn't in a normal, raw save file (at least I couldn't find it), but mcs contains the file name in the header.
