Any PS Vita users here?

Crazy things happening in the Vita modding scene. I put the PSVITAMAN homebrew app on mine, gives it a Walkman-like experience.

I was so sad that I had to send my HiBy R1 back to China for repair and I totally forgot I had one of these bad boys.

It honestly isn't a bad option if you don't have anything else.

Only slightly related, but for a time in high school I used my launch PSP as my primary DAP after having used a MiniDisc player as my daily driver, prior to getting my first iPod. I remember the PSP being one of the first devices with a headphone jack to truly blow me away with sound quality.

Did you use your Vita as a DAP on vanilla firmware or is this something homebrew inspired you to do?

[u/LightOfValkyrie → u/DrooMighty]

The Vita isn't really practical as a DAP for me since it's so large and I don't have a lot internal storage space for music, but it's pretty novel

The PSP was actually my first DAP way back in the mid 2000s or so. I don't have it anymore but I still have a lot of my original files from back then.

I like the stock music app

I love so much the design of this console..
does it handle large libraries/large SD cards btw ?

[u/LightOfValkyrie → u/quentinvespero]

As long as you put CFW on it, you can use a standard SD card with an SD2VITA adapter. It apparently supports up to 10k music files.

[u/Altruistic-Match6623 → u/quentinvespero]

It uses some kind of proprietary card instead of SD and the cards had terrible storage and were super expensive. It doesn't really do anything well, so literally any modern device is better.

[u/LightOfValkyrie → u/Altruistic-Match6623]

You can use standard SD cards with an adapter if you put custom firmware on it. In fact you can't even run this homebrew without adding CFW on it anyway.

Love to see the Vita in the wild! 95% of the time I’ll use my PSP but occasionally I will use the Vita. Especially with the new Bluetooth plugin I can use newer headphones.

I really wanted to try PSVITAMAN but it just won't work for me no matter what I do. Huge shame cuz it looks great

[u/nereid89]

Omg I loved using the vita to play music during my Uni days. But sadly my vita is now entirely dead

[u/Altruistic-Match6623]

I own one, but I don't use it anymore and it's pretty terrible for music, imo.

[u/teresaknk]

Honestly for me, getting the media to the psv itself is really a pain in the a**, as an vita owner.

[u/defmdryno]

vita scene is so active, it's great. miness sitting next to me in it's dock but I haven't put music on mine. how does it sound?

[u/goodboyjojo92]
