XMB Control (FreeCore), also refered as xmbctrl, is a plugin that adds a section to Settings in the XMB menu, which allows all PRO and ME (L)CFW users to take control of various Custom Firmware features and functions directly, as if it were the Recovery menu.
It is an adaptation of TN Settings and the original was included in TN Homebrew Enabler/TN HEN by Total_Noob.
The plugin xmbctrl was first released by djmati11, has since become an open sourced project and this version is brought about by Frostegater for 6.xx.
Installation
The plugin comes with an installer. Simply unzip archive and place the folder PSP to the root directory of your Memory Stick (ms0(ef0):/), run the application from XMB and select the version you would like to install:
- (L)ME XMB Control.
- PRO XMB Control.
There will be an additional ME Settings/PRO Settings option displayed on the XMB menu after installation is completed.
Language settings
Translations for the plugin are provided with the release (default in English). They are situated in the folders mecfw_translates (ME) and procfw_translates (PRO).
Copy the language text file of your choice, place it in ms0:/seplugins/xmbcontrol/ then restart your PSP.
