File Manager v191-3541f8d by mohasi

PS3 file browser with a flat, themeable UI.

Features directory listing with file-type icons, checkboxes, breadcrumb navigation, hold-to-scroll, search, image/audio/video viewers, a text editor and hex viewer, read/write access to exFAT and NTFS USB drives (via the shared VFS, with hotplug), a built-in FTP server, and a runtime theme system (Original Blue / Light / Dark, switch with R1, user-editable themes.txt).

Changes in File Manager

260722-1337 Stable

• Dump a disc sector for sector to /dev_hdd0/dumps. It checks free space first, shows live progress, can be cancelled, and cleans up after itself if it fails. Unreadable sectors are retried one at a time and reported rather than quietly skipped.
• A new properties panel shows a file's name, type, size, modified time, permissions, location and SHA-1. It opens instantly and hashes in the background; anything over 1 GB waits for you to press X rather than starting minutes of work unasked.
• NTFS drives now appear almost instantly. A 120 GB drive took 17.4 seconds to mount and now takes 0.37 — larger drives previously sat on a black screen for minutes. Drives that mount read-only, which is common after an unsafe eject from Windows, were always hitting the slow path and no longer do.

260715-2338 Stable

• New Permissions column in the file list — see each file's read/write/execute permissions at a glance
• Column layout refined to make room, with headers now rendered by the app for crisper, more flexible columns
• The file manager's interface is now drawn entirely in the app rather than from a background image, making it cleaner and smaller — and this is the groundwork for theme support later, since colours can now be changed in code instead of being locked into a background picture
• Added a Search feature to the file manager — press Start to find files and folders by name from wherever you are, then copy, cut, delete, rename, or open the results straight from the list.
• New look: the file manager now uses a clean, flat design throughout — including the text and hex editors and their keyboards.
• Themes: three built-in themes (Original Blue, Light, Dark). Press R1 on the main screen to switch instantly; your choice is remembered between launches.
• Make your own: themes live in a plain text file you can edit — tweak colours, delete one to restore its default, or add your own. Deleting your copy always falls back to the built-in versions.
• Consistency fixes: the scrollbar, checkboxes and the selected-row highlight all follow the active theme, checked boxes stay clearly visible against the highlight, and the search results line up with the file list.
• Sharper icons throughout — all icons are now drawn from a scalable font, so they stay crisp at any size and take on the theme colour.
• The volume meter's speaker icon now changes between muted, low and high to match the current volume.

260714-0110 Stable

• Button icons across the app (footer, dialogs, editors) now use the PS3's own native button glyphs for a consistent system look
• You can now exit the app from the file list: press Circle at the root and confirm
• Text editor and hex viewer: L2/R2 page up and down, and keep scrolling while held
• Video and audio players: refreshed seek bar and volume meter with a cleaner, modern blue style
• On-screen keyboard: the selected key is now highlighted much more visibly
• A Search button has been added to the main screen (greyed out — coming in a future update)
