Most of the ps3 wiki page should do for the moment, but compatibility list need to be revised (delete ad hoc, add FW versions ..) and linked to major web site for easy contributions. I tried to keep only the vita part (but having for example one game working on psp and not in vita can be interesting to know) SFO tips can be better somewhere else (but not for the moment?)

Description

This feature allows interaction with the Playstation XMB as well as supported PS3 Games/Software and PS1 games. A few settings on XMB are hidden during remote play or can not be accessed. PS3 can provide video and sound to the device or only video to the device (when your PS3 audio output like monitor or audio system is running the sound). PS3 20GB CECHB00 models (and others but unreleased models) can be used if they are using a wired connection to a wireless router even though the internal Wi-Fi hardware is missing.

Problems / workarounds / Tips

  • officially RemotePlay compatible titles
    • Nothing to fix :P
  • unofficially RemotePlay compatible BD titles
    • Use the patch or edit the SFO
  • unofficially RemotePlay compatible PSN titles
    • Use the patch or edit the SFO and then rebuild database from recovery menu (second method has better compatibility)
  • Incompatible RemotePlay titles
    • Most of the BD games in this section will launch with black screen due of the introduction video (codecs or resolutions) , ps3 reboot after a while. Can be resolved if you change the problematic videos with an other.
    • Homebrew like Frogger, puzzles collection don t function due to theirs authors decisions.
  • Officially Adhoc compatible titles
    • You can play online psp games through the AP mode of PS3 if you connect both of the devices to Playstation Network. In this case, PS3 is providing to the psp a wifi connection (not sure if this service is available outside Japan)
  • To "refresh" the XMB

When replacing a PARAM.SFO manually in the internall HDD (using a file manager, FTP, etc...), the system ignores it. This happens because the system is storing a "duplicated" copy of the old one


The most convenience and quick way is as simple as booting the game one time (by pressing X button over his icon)... inside the game press "PS" button and exit with "quit"... then you return to the XMB and the new PARAM.SFO has been loaded. So in resume... the XMB is refreshed when you boot it for first time so you need to boot it two times to load the new PARAM.SFO. (you can change something as the first letter of the title of the game to make sur/ check visually your news sfo is loaded)

Other solution from BahumatLord (need to be tested for the specific case of remote play bout should work):

After replacing the PARAM.SFO of your PSN game with a corrected one, you need to change the available display modes in your PS3 settings to include 720 even though your TV doesn't support it.

Then you're going to launch the game. This will trigger the PS3 to read the corrected PARAM.SFO and to fix the entry in the database.

When the game starts the screen will be blurry and unplayable. Quit back to the XMB and restore your display's original settings.

The next time you load the PSN game it will display at 480 resolution and work like it should. Some TV's might support including 1080 when you edit the PARAM.SFO. I've just had better compatibility changing from PAL to NTSC instead of trying to upscale it.

If your new SFO is stil ignored by the PS3 after refreshing (mostly fews 3.55+ PSN games) or you can t boot it (TV not compatible, didn t installed the game in the right order, previous problematic SFO installed ....) or for easy shared solution purpose, you ll need to overwrite it with your 1.01 SFO from install .PKG (or install first the edited SFO)

Last solution can be rebuild data base by using the option "rebuild database" from the recovery menu (this re-indexes all the files in the internall HDD), is long but can fix rare problems

Limitations

PlayStation Vita's Remote Play capabilities

During TGS 2011 Sony showed off a number of examples of how the new device can interact with the PlayStation 3:

  • Killzone 3 and little big planet 2 were streamed into the device from a PlayStation 3 unit,

noting how a few of the Dual Shock buttons missing on the Vita are mapped to the touchscreen.

  • A Vita streaming movie content from Japan-only PS3 TV recorder Torne.

Note:

  • it is possible to pair PSVita with a Playstation 3 on lower Firmware than 4.00 (e.g 3.41/3.55, pair as mobile phone/pc/psp)
