A hacked Vita has renewed my playing of it. Thanks to your tutorials. Thank you. I have 2 cards a 64GB with Vita games and a 256GB with RetroArch and PSP games. Such an underated handheld.
Questions... can I use the same memory card for games and homebrew/emulators? What's the size limit of these cards? And can SD Cards be used with Adapters? (I heard Vita memory cards are expensive)
@@LennyQUMFIF hey man I don’t know a whole lot about vita home brew but I don’t see why you would not be able to use the SD2VITA adapter and a normal memory card together with varying content on both. To answer the other question you had, yes there is an adapter. As I have previously stated it’s called SD2VITA and Blaine here has a video on it. I’m going to watch THAT video when I’m done with this one. Since he posted this a year ago I wanted to reply to you in case he did not get a notification from you commenting
Thank you! PS4 controller and wireless Xbox headset connected. Both work great at the same time btw. PSVita was always 'something from the future' :D Have fun boys
And for the audio use 3.5 cable male to male,if you have interference sound go to settings,system and turn off the USB Power Supply,remember that your vita won't be charging while playing so turn that option back on when you're done playing or recording.I heard about some say to use a special cable that doesn't let us hear interferences,you can search that in order to charge the vita while we playing in case we play for long long times.
I followed your video and it worked perfectly. No problems connecting and the Vita showing up on PC. My vita screen automatically goes dark, not sure why, and my audio plays from Vita itself. Tested latency by playing Kickbeat and its perfect. THanks!!!
I have a gamecraft speaker on my pc, (it connects bt/aux) so i connect it to my ps vita bluetooth. so maybe try with a bluetooth speaker or buy an aux cable to plug it on the pc to the vita that way you go to settings on the pc and select the exit of your audio to your speakers.
If you get a black screen and Vita not showing up. Open device manager on your pc and see what driver it detects. For me it was detecting as PSVita Type B USB driver. This is because you may have used vitashell usb connection. So reboot your vita, unplug your usb cord and plug it back in. That's it the vita should now show under cameras.
i guess for the audio, you need to use a 3.5mm cable, and a Y-splitter, if you want to use headphones or speakers, while doing the audio capture on the other side.
With this plugin its possible to stream from vita to chromecast. You just need a dock with power pass through, and a USB camera capture app that runs on the chromecast. Basically turns your vita into a pstv.
Works great. The only thing is I cannot get the audio. I connected using Blutooth and added an audio output option - found the Playstation Bluetooth speaker there and sound is playing on the vita through blutooth but can't hear anything or get any audio readings through obs.... any advice?
Thank you man you're always great help. Worked the first time I tried it but now my OBS won't recognize my vita and keeps bringing up my webcam instead and won't give me the choice of my vita. Idk what I'm doing wrong.
Can't get it to work for some reason. Tried all the plugins OLED and LCD, but when I go into OBS and click add it won't show a screen. Just blue screen with a video recorder pic with a line through it. What am I doing wrong?
just broke my vita, now when it turns on it displays a black screen and it doesn't even stream to obs can you tell me how to remove the plug in because I can't remove it when I can't see anything on my vita
I hope you got your Vita fixed? Or were able to get another one if not? I swear, there’s so many people that still absolutely love the Vita, and that’s because the Vita was made for real gamers !! I have two, one that is modded and one that is not, and I’m bout to get a third!! the one I am planning on getting is super nice and has over 100 PS1 games that you cannot get on the PKGJ store! as well as many emulators from Game Boy to Sega CD, super Nintendo, Nintendo, 64! It’s like Sony dropped the ball on the Vita on purpose and I still play mine to this day, as well as millions of other people do!!! It didn’t do well mainstream and that’s because the majority of people that buy video games these days are not “real gamers”-
I cannot seem to make Vita appear in OBS at all. I am using a Windows 10 laptop and OBS always chooses to show the laptop's built-in webcam instead of the Vita. If I press Select in OpenShell to connect the Vita directly to the laptop, I cannot exit the OpenShell menu unless I deactivate the connection.
I wonder if there is a way to do this directly on Android TV with a similar type of android app instead of linking through the PC?? This would be super cool. If the app doesn't already exist, I'm sure that someone smarter than me could make one.
There is. It is called Usb Camera by ShenYao China, it works on android phone and android tv. Disable the wifi before opening the app to prevent it from displaying ads
Vita error code c4-13901-4 when connect USB to PC/ Android Box As the title mentioned, I can't have any data transfer via USB (the cable) because the PC not even recognize (no sound or notification at all) when plugged in. Whether I was using Vitashell USB mode or Content Manager, it just the same. But the strangely my Vita was able to detect whether the USB is connected or not and the charging is ok. My Vita is PCH-1000 with Henkaku-Enso FW 3.60, using SD2VITA 512GB San Disk Micro SD card mounted via YAMT Lite plugin. Also got Sony Memory Card 8GB. I did: 1) Change different new USB cables (5 cables so far by various brands) 2) format the Sony Memory Card 3) Insert and remove the Sony Memory Card 4) reinstall Henkaku-Enso including Taihen 5) Shift between Storagemgr and YAMT Lite 6) Rebuild Database 7) Check the external side of charging port, seems ok, no bent pins. EVERYTHING ELSE IS WORKING FINE INCLUDING FTP MODE
Would be great if something like this can be setup on a raspberry pi or something like that and make it autorun the necessary programs so you can have a tiny box in your entertainment set solely for hooking up the vita.
Help me!! I followed and it didn't work, the first problem is VitaShell can't connect via USB to PS Vita 2000, the second problem is after installing the plugin "udcd_uvc by xerpi v1.7" the AutoPlugin software is faulty always and I have to delete it. Now I can't reinstall AutoPlugin because I can't connect to my PC anymore (problem 1).
I was also confused by this because of what he said at the end of the video where he says “you can connect it to your PC or your HD TV via USB?” And then the video just ends .. I don’t have an up-to-date PC but I’m sure I could get this done with my old PC from 2008 if I wanted to badly enough
Does anyone know how to reconnect the PS Vita as a USB device on Windows 10 after doing this screen grab through OBS? Because now every time I connect my Vita to USB to my PC, it's only recognized as a webcam device (in Windows Settings, the PS Vita is shown with the webcam icon) when I only want to access the files as a USB device.
another quicker solution (for some, inc me) is to use FFPlay which comes with FFMPEG, simply type the following ffplay -f dshow -i "video=PSVita" -fs with the vita plugin active, and with ffmpeg/ffplay installed, this will output your vita fullscreen and for me at least is much quicker/less lag than using OBS.

Installed the OLED plugin (it's a first-gen Vita) otherwise it seems to be working properly on the Vita end. Is there some other plugin or setting that resolves this issue?
Hey Blaine do I need to invest in an expensive pc to get this done? I have a MacBook but I understand that it won’t work with my MacBook. Can I purchase a pretty inexpensive laptop to get this done?
I have a RPi 3B+ as vita dock and the video is quite smooth, I found the video a bit choppy using OBS. I have installed the plug-in that turns off the vita screen while connected to an external display and it's really a shame no one talks about it (I think only Mr rabbit game tv channel mentions it). Anyway, the real big lag for me was to use the Bluetooth controller, so I gave up using it. Nowadays I just connect the console to the monitor, the audio is output by a Bluetooth speaker and I use Vita as a wired controller to minimize lag. Works pretty well!
I can no longer connect my psvita storage on my pc because I deleted the app to do this because I don’t want to connect to my tv anymore do you no what’s wrong
I hv a qn, why cant i load the psp games on pkgj even though i hv tried refreshing many times as well as downloading certain things from the plugins please help
Hi I wanted to watch a movie in my ps tv through web store on a website. But it states that this vudeo can't be played. Wherelse I can watch that in my phone. Is there any fix for it

Please note that this method doesn't capture audio from the PS VITA.
You supply the audio from the 3.5mm jack.
i guess for the audio, you need to use a 3.5mm cable, and a Y-splitter, if you want to use headphones or speakers, while doing the audio capture on the other side.
All of your videos recently have helped me mod my recently bought Vita 1000. Im going to make my Vita the ultimate handheld gaming machine!
The vita is just blowing my mind tbh, dunno why i havent modded it before.
With this plugin its possible to stream from vita to chromecast. You just need a dock with power pass through, and a USB camera capture app that runs on the chromecast. Basically turns your vita into a pstv.
Sony: introduces handheld console. People: let's plug it to tv 😂
Lol i was gonna buy a firestick adapter. Thanks Blaine. Always saving the day!
Its works on firestick and usb camera sideloaded app.
Is there any way to reduce more latency from the output?
did u fix this mate?
GREAT VIDEO! Worked in one shot. Do you have a trick on how to get the audio to play through the PC? I would like to start streaming some vita games.
If you haven't figured it out yet. I would try bluetooth. Get a BT receiver dongle if your desktop/laptop doesn't have it.
@@neuroplasticity Bluetooth. I'll try that. Thanks!
tried it no luck try line in mic?
you can use bluetooth device linked to vita; or a jack male to jack male cable from vita output into your pc mic input
I have zero regrets spending money on a vita and 256 mem card and 8 gb Sony card
Works great. The only thing is I cannot get the audio. I connected using Blutooth and added an audio output option - found the Playstation Bluetooth speaker there and sound is playing on the vita through blutooth but can't hear anything or get any audio readings through obs.... any advice?
If anyone gets a black screen here 6:09, you need to change device from integrated camera to PsVita.
btw, you don't need OBS for this to work. I use any regular app that supports webcams. I'm using the webcam app that comes with Windows.
The whole process worked until I got the last part and it won’t display my vita screen no matter what I do
Watched two of your videos…just had to SUBSCRIBE! 👍🏽
How do you get the audio through?
Same for me. Audio stay in PSVITA :(
@@Room-vc1usneed Aux
Thank you man you're always great help. Worked the first time I tried it but now my OBS won't recognize my vita and keeps bringing up my webcam instead and won't give me the choice of my vita. Idk what I'm doing wrong.
Any solutions? same issue here
@@denizerustun3793 I can't remember the fix I did this was awhile ago. I just remember trying different cords and turning my system on and off
I had to go into the camera settings and disable my webcam that's built in to my laptop. Hope this helps!
Can't get it to work for some reason. Tried all the plugins OLED and LCD, but when I go into OBS and click add it won't show a screen. Just blue screen with a video recorder pic with a line through it. What am I doing wrong?
Make sure you launch h-encore again after restarting to enable the Jailbreak. This made it work for me.
Thanks a lot for the tutorial mate !!
just broke my vita, now when it turns on it displays a black screen and it doesn't even stream to obs can you tell me how to remove the plug in because I can't remove it when I can't see anything on my vita
just hold power button for 20 seconds and restart in safe mode and select rebuild database, then remove the plugin and try again.
I hope you got your Vita fixed? Or were able to get another one if not?

Okay ive had a hacked vita for a little over a month and im so happy to know about this. I can stream yay
Thank you! Very helpful did the trick!
Doesnt seem to work on my end
So… you need to have your PC on whenever you want to connect to your TV/Monitor?
Yep. It’s PS Vita USB to PC then PC HDMI to TV. I tried it with an old laptop running Linux.
My Vita crashes at warning screen
I cannot seem to make Vita appear in OBS at all. I am using a Windows 10 laptop and OBS always chooses to show the laptop's built-in webcam instead of the Vita. If I press Select in OpenShell to connect the Vita directly to the laptop, I cannot exit the OpenShell menu unless I deactivate the connection.
you can choose it in the menu instead of integrated webcamera scroll and pick the option psvita
Try with a usb data cable by sony, i had the same issue and it worked.
Make sure you launch h-encore again after restarting to enable the Jailbreak. This made it work for me.
Thanks a lot this is so nice 😀
After connecting it to the tv , how to play multiplayer ( me and my son ) with PS3 joysticks ?!
Awesome man thank you!
It works. My only question is how do I direct the audio of the Vita to the TV?
0:03 The way the cable is bent kinda hurt me physically..
Sony could do this for the VERY START AND THEY DIDN'T ?!?! WHAT THE HECK SONY!!!

Sweet! Thanks!!
how do i connect the vita oled to my 4k tv? included usb cable or do i need a ps tv box? great video on setting up the vita to pc
Connect your pc to the tv as a monitor
I don't understand
does it take a really long time to install something from autoplugin 2

He blaine i did everything right but when i add a device on the obs the ps vita does not show can you help me ?

Nice. I might try this. Could you go over the Dualshock 3 and 4 plug-ins so we can use this setup better?
If you could also use a third party controllers like an 8bitdo SN30, that would be sweet
Did manage to get Dualshock 4 working on it.
@@davidgill7412 yes he did, it's on a different video. Look for it on his channel.

*I've come to the right video.* ✨
Thank you 😊
Does it work with the PS Vita Slim model since I own that one...
Would be handy...
and thanks for this guide...
or you can just get a raspberry pi board, and a few other things, and make a dock of sorts.
People who try it how is the quality and is there any input lag ?
is enabling this pluging going to effect the game frame rate on the vita?
Nope
How do I stop the lag
Like hdmi to tv it gets really slow at time frame drops i believe, only when streaming from laptop to the tv
Would be great if something like this can be setup on a raspberry pi or something like that and make it autorun the necessary programs so you can have a tiny box in your entertainment set solely for hooking up the vita.

Just wanna ask..do u need to always connected to the internet for this to work??
Help me!!
I followed and it didn't work, the first problem is VitaShell can't connect via USB to PS Vita 2000, the second problem is after installing the plugin "udcd_uvc by xerpi v1.7" the AutoPlugin software is faulty always and I have to delete it. Now I can't reinstall AutoPlugin because I can't connect to my PC anymore (problem 1).
So I'm a little confused. Can you connect it to a TV without it also being connected to a computer at the same time?
No, needs to go through a capture device

Does anyone know how to reconnect the PS Vita as a USB device on Windows 10 after doing this screen grab through OBS? Because now every time I connect my Vita to USB to my PC, it's only recognized as a webcam device (in Windows Settings, the PS Vita is shown with the webcam icon) when I only want to access the files as a USB device.
restart your vita, works fine for me
Last time I did this Audio was not supported.
Has this been addressed or would I still need to route my audio to a different output?
Audio needs to be sent using a 3.5mm jack from the Vita to your PCs audio input..
or bluetooth
another quicker solution (for some, inc me) is to use FFPlay which comes with FFMPEG, simply type the following
ffplay -f dshow -i "video=PSVita" -fs
with the vita plugin active, and with ffmpeg/ffplay installed, this will output your vita fullscreen and for me at least is much quicker/less lag than using OBS.
Hi, what vita plug in has to be active for this method?
@@dominationstation0 the same one mentioned in the video, the only difference here if what you use to view the vita's output with.
