MiniVitaTV is a plugin allowing users can connect up to 4 DS3/DS4 to your PSVITA.

What is MiniVitaTV?

This plugin fakes your device as a PS TV and allows you to connect up to 4 DS3/DS4 controllers to your PS Vita, and play local multiplayer games, by using the exact same driver as on the PS TV. Yes, the PS Vita screen is rather small, but I think it's kinda cute to play on it with friends while travelling or so.

Note that this plugin is still in beta stage and the known issues will be fixed when I find time.
Only official DS3/DS4 controllers are currently supported!

How To Install MiniVitaTV

1. Download minivitatv.skprx and ds3.skprx, and copy them to ux0:tai.

2. Add these lines to taiHEN config.txt at ux0:tai/config.txt:

   *KERNEL
   ux0:tai/minivitatv.skprx
   ux0:tai/ds3.skprx

3. Reboot your device and relaunch HENkaku.

If you're using enso you should boot with L trigger hold to skip plugins in case you want to remove this plugin. Remember it's a beta.

Pairing a DS4 controller for the first time on MiniVitaTV

Using it for the first time:

1. Go to Settings → Devices → Bluetooth Devices
2. Press SHARE+PS on the DS4 for about 3-4 seconds, until the lightbar blinks very quickly
