You can also install lite version by pressing one of buttons when starting updater, but i dont remember which one.

The loading of the ISO takes a few seconds more due the ISO should be checked and patched. But once the ISO is fixed, the loading time should be only 1 or 2 more seconds if Auto-Fix is enabled.

Thank you for your feedback. I guess that means that the freeze is gone :)

I have uploaded webMAN MOD 1.41.15 to Brewology with the following changes:


[MENTION=8]Tranced[/MENTION] you don't have to wait for 1.41.15 ;)

[MENTION=21]3141card[/MENTION] Thank you for your port of video_rec plugin to C. I have modified it a bit and integrated to webMAN MOD. The changes are available in github:
https://github.com/aldostools/webMAN-MOD/commit/6931857902000a661abb153c1075f50af3a31b23


Hey aldo can you also add something to unload video_rec.sprx when unloading webman? I usually unload webman and disable CFW syscalls with psn patch before going online so now I have to disable video rec too., also why vide rec still works with syscalls disabled?

You can press any button, I usually keep pressing x while running webman Updater.
 
to install the Lite edition, just press X for a few seconds when the reed the updater, although I do not know if the lite version includes the feature to enable and disable the plugin video_rec.sprx
 
video_rec.sprx requires more than 16MB of memory with more processing SPU, most likely the console can not handle the load, it is recommended to replace the plug with the lite version

Yes, you are right the video_rec.sprx in webman-mod-v1-41-15 cause a input-lag if you press home button and navigate the xmb... (I tested it by my self)
but its not necessary to install the lite version you can also just uncheck "VIDEO REC (in-game): R3" in Webman Settings the last option in the lower right corner--
save and reboot

(after this Video rec plugin is not loading anymore on next reboot)

this is what I did and everythings work perfect now

I have updated the plugin to webMAN MOD 1.41.16:
The video recording is not longer a separated plugin (although I kept the file in the installer due it may be useful as a standalone plugin).
I hope that this change help to reduce the lag in the XMB due 2 plugins reading the pad simultaneously.

Here are the changes in 1.41.16:
- Added /videorec.ps3 to start/stop in-game video recording
- Added [REC] link to record video from /cpursx.ps3
- Added /loadprx.ps3 to load/unload prx dynamically on the specified slot (default: slot 6)
- Added link to load .sprx file through File Manager

Source code: github

Download: store.brewology.com/ahomebrew.php?brewid=257

IMPORTANT CHANGE: The button combo to record video now is :select:+:R3:

New commands:
/videorec.ps3 Start/stop video recording (in-game only)
/loadprx.ps3?slot=n&prx=path/file.sprx Load a sprx in the specified slot (default 6 if the slot parameter is omitted). Valid slot n = 1 to 6.

To unload a sprx use:
/loadprx.ps3?slot=n&prx=none

TIP: /loadprx.ps3?slot=5&prx=/dev_hdd0/webftp_server_lite.sprx (This will unload webMAN and load LITE edition without have to reboot. The slot number should be different to the current slot used by webMAN)

Your requested feature is not longer necessary in 1.41.16... the video_rec feature now is part of webMAN MOD's core... So there is not external sprx loaded.

The video rec still works because it doesn't use syscalls. The feature calls vsh functions directly.


thank you aldostools

is there a chance to make the plugin "video-rec" work with the last games?
example: last of us

The video-rec uses a lot of memory (~16MB) + webMAN use some memory too... These games use almost all the resources in the PS3 to provide a "next gen"-like experience...
So I doubt the video rec feature could work with TLoU and even with some bad games with inefficient memory usage.

Lately I have been doing a lot of optimizations, but there is not much left to optimize... only few bytes/KB were saved and they are already used by the new added features.

no more input lag in xmb with Webman Mod 1.41.16 and Video Rec plugin but games crash or get Blackscreen if i try to record
(Biohazard Remake and Deadly Premonition tested) not a webman issue though ...(Video rec compatibility issue)
and the option to activate and deactivate is there in Webman mod settings so everything is good

edit2: Gran Turismo 6 is working fine (with video recording)

Aldo it great work what you do with your mod. Many, many thanks.

I have installed the 1.41.17 and Im testing the rec plugin, so far seems it wont work with psn games, also tried with Dark Souls 2 but only creates a 28 bytes file. It has worked fine with NBA JAM, but when the match finishes and the game ties to save cant do it until you stop the recording. Seems thats one issue to resovle for the plugin to work properly.

Is there any way to change the directory of the recordings, maybe in a external hdd some issues would be resolved.
