webMAN MOD

PS3 webMAN MOD - General Information Thread 1.47.48q

Need a little help... I wanted to record some in game video so I opened the vsh menu loaded the video rec plugin then opened fifa 19 and paused to turn on the recording it turned on successfully and showed the notification then after 2 minutes I stopped the recording and opened multiman just to find a 28b sized file... I thought it would work with minecraft but the same happens .. I'm using a crt TV so the resolution is 570 or something and I'm on hfw hen... any solution please :))

I haven't tested that game, but you could try this:
SELECT+R3+R2+L2 = Load video_rec.sprx and unload webMAN MOD to free more memory
The combos in video_rec.sprx are:
R3 = record video using bg memory container
R2 + R3 / L2 + R3 = record video using app memory container
L2 + R2+L3 = default format
R2 + L3 = change audio format
L2 + L3 = change video format
R3 + L3 = Unload video_rec.sprx
 
I reinstalled the system, formatted the hard drive and did the initial setup in English. Then I installed the new version of the wMM. The overlay bug still present.

Thank you for your feedback. I have been trying to reproduce this bug on Evilnat 4.88.2 and I'm unable to recreate that bug. It could be related to 4.89. That release has issues with XMB.

Also the bug looks to happen following a specific procedure that can be avoided easily.
 
Hello Aldostools, thank you for being so available to help everyone with webman.

This is a general question I cannot seem to find an answer to: How many games total can you have displayed in webman at one time? I am trying to find a number or a calculation to see exactly how many ps1, ps2 and ps3 games total we can have at one time. Thanks again for everything.

There is not an exact number, due it depends of many variables (specially the free memory).

In the documentation (wiki) I mention that webMAN can scan near 100 games per each 64KB free.
Depending the selected scanning profile you can get more or less games per game type (ps1/ps2/ps3).

The estimated amount of games (using memory container [4-bg]) is:
PS3:1200 games (896KB)
PSX: 800 games (512KB)
PSP: 400 games (256KB)
PS2: 600 games (384KB)
DVD: 800 items (512KB)
Max Total: 3800 items.

That is if 3MB can be allocated. If only 2MB can be allocated, substract 200 games to each category, for a maximum total of 2800 items. The "MAX" profiles increase the limit to 1200 games to the selected type.

Each ROMS folder can allocate the max total (aprox. 2800). You can put PS3ISO, PS2ISO, PSXISO inside /ROMS if you need to list extra games.

Now that said, XMB has limited memory (near 2MB free). The covers are cached and consume a lot of free memory, specially if you use large images. If you consume all the free memory XMB will become very unstable.
 
So.. i think ive found a slight issue with the latest version of webman mod, if you enable the new FPS plugin and start navigating menus within the XMB, it will eventually YLOD the console with 1601/1701 (enabling the start+select menu speeds up this too). I have no clue if that has been reported so far. I have confirmed this to occur on both of my COK-001 based consoles to rule out the possibility of a hardware issue.

I have only tested on evilnat 4.88.2 so i have no clue if this occurs on any other firmware, i have uploaded a video of the issue, as well as the syscon error log if that is of any help.

Thank you for your bug report. This needs further investigation to know if it is a hardware issue in this console, or if the bug is specific to this model or if a software issue in VshFpsCounter, webMAN or if it related to the CFW (payload or mods).

First we need to know if this bug happens also on other consoles.
If it happens on HEN or CFW.

If it only happens with VshFpsCounter enabled, then we need to open an issue in TheRouletteBoi's repo.
But first we need to confirm what kind of bug it is.

I have ruled out it being the console, since ive been able to get it to happen on two models of the exact same console so it rules out it being a hardware defect, i do have a HEN super slim somewhere i can test with. I will report back my findings.
 
Bonjour @aldostools .

Ma question pourras te paraître stupide mais je désire faire fonctionner le webMAN-mod tout autant en mode complet qu'en mode réduit (light) depuis une combo de touche lorsque le mod (v1.47.41) est en place (PS3 totalement démarrée). Cela est-il possible ???

My question may seem stupid to you but I want to run the webMAN-mod in full mode as well as in reduced mode (light) from a key combo when the mod (v1.47.41) is in place (PS3 fully started). Is this possible???

It would be helpful if you can get a socat log from Cobra debug try to diagnose what causes this error.

Also try to reproduce it without VshFpsCounter, to know if only happens with that plugin running.
 
Do you know how do get the debug?

In CFW Evilnat 4.88.2 go to Network > Custom Firmware Tools > Cobra > Toggle Cobra Version.
After reboot, in webMAN MOD you should see that it reports FW: 4.88 Cobra 8.3D

If you're using Windows, install one of these https://sourceforge.net/projects/unix-utils/files/socat/1.7.3.2/

From command prompt execute:
socat -lu stdout udp-recv:18194,reuseaddr |tee stdout.txt

If the port is not blocked by the firewall, you should see some text appearing on Windows.

It is important to note that webMAN loads an older version of VshFpsCounter when you use the debug mode.
It loads /dev_hdd0/tmp/wm_res/VshFpsCounterM.sprx instead of VshFpsCounter.sprx because it has issues on debug mode.

Another test that you can do renaming VshFpsCounterM.sprx as VshFpsCounter.sprx, and use it in normal Cobra.
That old version has less features but seems to be more stable.
 
Hi @aldostools, is there a setting in webMAN MOD to select the temperature measure unit displayed in VshFpsCounter so that it would not switch back and forth between Fahrenheit and Celsius?
Thanks

Pourrais-tu répondre à ce qui suit s'il te plait !!!

Yes. Edit /dev_hdd0/tmp/wm_res/VshFpsCounter.yaml

Change temperatureType: BOTH to CELSIUS or FAHRENHEIT, as commented in the configuration file.
The information displayed can be turned On/Off and you can change the display position or the font size.
version: 2
overlay:
displayMode: XMB_GAME # Available options XMB_GAME, XMB, GAME
position: TOP_LEFT # Available options TOP_LEFT, TOP_RIGHT, BOTTOM_LEFT, BOTTOM_RIGHT
showFPS: On.
showCpuInfo: On
showGpuInfo: On
showRamInfo: Off
showFanSpeed: On
showFirmware: On
showAppName: On
showClockSpeeds: On
temperatureType: BOTH # Available options BOTH, CELSIUS, FAHRENHEIT
textSize: 16.0

Yes, use the combo L1+R1+TRIANGLE to toggle between Full edition and Lite edition.

The question is not stupid. It took me a lot of effort to make this feature work properly.

Thanks for the tip and for implementing this feature in webMAN MOD!

Un grand MERCI à toi @aldostools, à toi mon ami. C'est moi le "stupide" car je ne savais pas où trouver cette information primordiale pour moi car je désire utiliser complètement la fonctionnalité ARTEMIS avec certains jeux qui sont très difficiles à finir.

Encore une fois MERCI, tu es excellent et mérites nos louanges.

Algol "le papy".

In English via G-Trad :
A big THANK YOU to you @aldostools, to you my friend. I'm the "stupid" because I didn't know where to find this essential information for me because I want to fully use the ARTEMIS functionality with some games that are very difficult to finish.

Once again THANK YOU, you are excellent and deserve our praise.

Hi everyone!

I have the same issue on two fat ps3(CECHH04, CECHG04), both are running EvilNat 4.89 cfw.
Here is what happens:
Console starts up alright and works flawlessly.
But after activating fps counter everything shows as it should except cpu/gpu clocks are missing. After ~17 seconds YLOD, power led red flashing and beeping.
Powering the console up again, hdd checking and after that the xmb starts up.
And here is the difference, after activating the fps counter (L3+R3) everything happens as before except after 17 seconds the cpu/gpu clocks appear too. No crash.
After shutting down the console and powering up again everything happens again.
It's like the cpu/gpu clock speed readout crashes the console.
I tried configuring the plugin to only show fps/cpu/gpu temperature/fan speed, but crashed again. It works only after a YLOD/hdd check. I checked the hdd its flawles.
Reinstalled cfw, no luck.
