Description

The PS3 has multi language support, languages can be selected on XMB Settings column and are associated with a language number code from the table below

Language settings are stored inside XRegistry.sys and are managed by sysconf_plugin.sprx/rco strviewer_plugin.sprx/rco. See Discussion page

Language Dependant Files

  • The System Firmware texts stored inside Resource Container (RCO) files
  • Games/Apps parameters inside PARAM.SFO as example the title (TITLE_xx)
  • Games/Apps Content Information Files as example the icon (ICON0_xx.PNG)
  • Games/Apps Trophy files as example the trophy configuration file (TROP_xx.SFM)
  • PlayStation 3 Theme (P3T) as example the theme info under <localizedinfo>
  • Audio tracks of .BIK video files (.BIK format supports 1 video track + several audio tracks, the system decides wich ones to play based in the user language). Note this number can be changed by the game and sometimes doesnt matches with the numbers used by the system
  • Playstation Network, see ps4/Sony#PSN_Online_Store
