Release notes

v2006-08-10 · Links 2.1 Browser r1231 Stand Alone · Aug 10, 2006

Raf, the brains behind the PSPRadio, has again marvelled us with an update for his homebrew application Links2 browser port to the PSP. It has been updated to Links 2.1-pre23 PSP r1231, and as you already know, this latest version is now based on links2.1- pre23, as mentioned in our earlier reports about this app.

This browser has been tagged by many PSP users as the best choice because it has much more support than the Sony's PSP browser that could be seen in firmwares 2.0 and above. As always, you can download the standalone EBOOT if you wish to launch the Links2 browser from your PSPs XMB or the PSPRadio plugin if you wish to launch it from Raf's PSPRadio application. The source code was also released along with the usual package. For now, Raf filled us in on what is new with this release.

What's New for Links2 PSP Port
================================
links-2.1pre23 PSP r1231 (2006-08-09)
NEW FEATURES
Using a new mouse cursor (Edited off of the freely available theme
Implemented h/w double buffering to go along the s/w double buffering (more like triple buffering). This solves the flickering of danzeff.
Slowed down the mouse pointer a bit. Also made this a configuration item (mouse_speed_factor).
Renamed config item psp_bb_to_fb_factor to screen_zoom_factor
Added support for 16bpp to danzeff
Modified links to use 16bpp; this saves a lot of memory.

BUG FIXES
Cleaned up the call to the input handler. This resolved some timing issues that were causing the graphic glitches (menu screens not clearing up correctly).

It also wouldn't hurt if you guys will share what you think about the app, so as the good developer can hone his craft and perfect this fine application. So don't hesitate to think out loud through your comments.
