CTorrentPSP – Torrent client for PSP (obv!)

ey All, Neoflash time again!
This time I’m entering a torrent client for PSP, because I thought we need one.
Turns out we don’t really need one, but it is nice to have it anyway 🙂

CTorrentPSP
Download CTorrentPSP Executable
Download CTorrentPSP Source

Read the README.PSP for more details and the list of bugs 😉
Delete the resources/splash.png to get rid of the splash screen.
Let me know what you download with it! lol! 🙂

Developed under M33 3.90-2, using PSPLINK (of course), run under 3.XX Kernel. 1.5 not supported (Use the code, you can make it work on 1.5 if you want it to)

    It’s quite a good torrent downloader, the speed is quite good, you can download music with it and small games (big games if uve got the time) great app!

    im hoping that in the future you can download faster.

    thx for the app!

    Oh, I DO need a Torrent Client. Thank you so much. <3 It works great… But it would be great, if you could add a file browser so I can use my torrents I’ve just downloaded. Keep the good work. 😀

    Other people out their have made apps for moving files around on your psp, use them 😉

    Hey, Great app! But everytime i try it comes to ” Choice Connection” I press X on my Connection and nothin happens..It freezez. How can i fix this so i can use this very usefull app! Please HELP!

    Drizzle02 – Check if your wifi switch is on.
    CTorrentPSP doesn’t check and it will lock right where you are getting a lock up if the switch isn’t on.

    This kinda tips me off. I realy want this bad.

    It just doesnt do nothin…

    When i press “HOME” button. Click “YES” MY PSP freezes and shuts down. 🙁

    Post some more details:
    How many wifi connections do you have configured?
    What firmware version are you running?
    What CFW plugins are you running, have you tried disabling them?

  8. Drizzle02

    I upgraded too 3.90-2 and it worked. But now when I use a torrent it dont download, Ive downloaded 5 torrents and all the same, dont download. How do I get them to work?

  9. Danzel Post author

    I haven’t had a problem with a torrent yet.
    Make sure the torrent has enough peers/seeds and the tracker doesn’t require any advanced features.
    what does the first set of numbers at the bottom left say?

    You should collaborate with that guy who makes PSPFiler, Mediumgauge (though I doubt these would be easily compatible) to integrate this function into PSPFiler… Or something. I would find it badass.

    nice work! looking forward to the next update if your going to release one. We needed a torrent client for the PSP. Thx alot

  12. Drizzle02

    K it works now. Im using my non-static IP adress. I no longer have 1.50 kernal adon. I was at firmware 3.71 M33 and now at 3.90 M33-2. Thanks this thing is Legit!

  13. Dark Chazz

    It would be cool if we can exit with the home button while downloading a torrent then run ctorrent when we have the time then continue the download not start from the beggining!

  14. NyghtcrawleR

    What would be good is an option to not download parts of a torrent. Like if you donwloading a cd, you should be able to just pick certain songs and not forced to dl the whole things.

  15. Dark Chazz

    That means I can select the same .torrent file and it’ll continue the download from where I stopped?

  16. Monoxide

    I have a slim 2000, home button works fine but wifi froze on connecting and would not display any errors telling me that my connections had failed so I could select a new AP. other then that nice work

  17. Monoxide

    Alright, I am able to get about 21-4% of the file before the client seems to drop all peers and I have to reopen the app to complete another 20 sum % I have reached speeds of 78 with no problem with it stopping after it hits 60+, it was down at 38 with it had dropped

    Hey.. Some people like to have a PSP Torrent client to save energy. If they have a PSP downloading a file overnight instead of a lets say 200-400 watt PC, thats a big difference in power. But it would also extend your hard drives life… well… its cool i think 🙂 Nice work!

    @dark chazz
    i’ve got a psp-slim and a fat, downgraded w/ a pandora and all that stuff, and ive been using homebrew for a while now, but it says: corrupted data, so what do i do?

  20. dwwtemp

    i hope this is good. lol i read the whole readme and the bugs and comments were funny. even tho they were true 🙁 but i still think that this is a good idea and i also hope there are more updates to come cuz it sounds great. might be wondering why i havent put it on my psp yet? well… im grounded 🙁 parents took psp.

  21. Crip

    i got a big problem

    i antecedently uprgrade my ps to 3.93 official

    firmware ho do i get my old firmware 3.92 m33-2

    back

    plz help!!!

  22. Vehemuz

    @Crip, I think you’re stuck, unless you have a pandora, google it if you don’t know what it is

  23. stonie

    in order to get past the connection freeze part i had to set it in 3.90 kernle and disable everything posible in recovery mode, hope this helps(took me a bit to get past that myself)

  24. shazeee

    ey yo… uhh i donnt really understand how to download dizz.. i read da readme and stuff but stillz.. can sumone explainn how to download itt??

  25. Vehemuz

    @shazzee
    put it in game (the folder ctorrent, make sure that it’s directly in GAME, niet in a subfolder called ctorrent) and g oto your internetbrowser (pspbrowser) and go to a torrent tracker (such as piratebay) en click something you want to download. It’ll ask you if you want to save the file. click yes and choose your destination (for example :PSP/COMMON) then go to filer/IRshel or usb and copy the torrent file from PSP/COMMON to PSP/GAME/ctorrent/torrents. exit usb/shell and go to the memory stick icon. click ctorrent and it’ll start. select your torrent and your wificonnection. it’ll say: state 2 and then state 3 and then start downloading/uploading

    thank for source !

    I’ve changed
    —–UI.cpp—–
    char* UI::GetTorrentFromUser(){
    static char file[2048];
    sprintf(file, “./torrents/”);
    […]
    by
    char* UI::GetTorrentFromUser()
    {
    static char file[2048]; // for returning the file name
    sprintf(file, “/PSP/COMMON/”);
    —————

    compilation : OK
    but when I try to connect there is a bug in the 3rd step … I’ll retry but i’m deseperated

    my GCC is right I’ve compilated original source and it’s work great !

  27. Danzel Post author

    I don’t know why that wouldn’t work…..
    The string is in two places isn’t it? Did you change both?

  28. markhelo

    when i download a file, it takes like a puarter to connect, but ok. after that it just dont download. it saysthere was just 1 leacher and no seader? on piratebay there were like 2000seaders!
    other things: just a great idea!

  29. Danzel Post author

    Sometimes it craps out and you need to restart the program. This is related to the network stack on the PSP as far as I can tell.
    It will resume where you were up to, so no worries there.

  30. Danzel Post author

    Try it. 😛
    You need a custom firmware to run homebrew, official firmware won’t let you run it.

  31. Theredbaron

    Thanks so much for this. I don’t have a laptop, and I have to travel quite a bit, and this is a life saver. I don’t have that big of a mem card, and being able to get new media on the road is a real life saver. There is always an open access point somewhere near by that I can use. Now the boredom can be abated a bit.

    Marvelous! As you said, i never expected our psps to be able of such an amazing miracle, download torrents! Thanks!, It works very well, i’ve downloaded lots of music, movies and i was about to download games but i run out of battery, lol

    However, i really wish you to keep updating this exceptional application, thanks once again! cheers!!!

  33. pavel

    Just a quiestion: After having downloaded (usuall i let my psp the whole night doing it), my psp really gets hot!, i wonder if that would kinda harm it, erode it, or might be the reason of a long term adverse effect on my psp?

    Just adding, it also works while listening to music with irshell, amazing!
