PSP ISO Shrink v2.32
greg | August 30, 2006
Update: Maverick has addressed many of the issues you discovered & reported with the earlier release of PSP ISO Shrink, thus the release of v2.32 - from the ChangeLog:
- The Auto PSP detection so it no longer accesses the A:\ drive when checking for the psp
- Decompression issue resolved
- The “ISO not showing issue” in the drop down list
- PSP detection now begins once you start the app
Download: PSP ISO Shrink v2.32
Yup, another one… From developer Maverick comes PSP ISO Shrink v2.3 (PSPISOS). Requiring the .NET framework PSP ISO Shrink provides an easy-to-use graphical interface supporting ISO to DAX/CSO compression, and vice versa; it also yields the functionality to directly transfer the resulting ISO image to your PSP’s memory stick without any hassles.
Quoted from the README:
PSPISOS was created to make it very simple to compress, transfer and manage your ISO compression. Not only does PSPISOS manage the compression to different formats, but it also manages the PSP memory card through intelligent PSP detection and game management.
Give it a try, leave your feedback/comments below.

umm…. yay?
something new and better…
And simple
Woah Wheres Dannykay?
nice
Dog slow, have no idea why.
whoa…..ok cool ill use it
Hmm.. nice interface.. easy on the eyes.. (:
Great work!
this is a lot better than danny kasys compresssors although i used that for a long time i like the interface how it manages the mem card on this
Doesn’t work for me, it can’t see my ISO, and it keeps trying to look through the floppy drive, even though I double-checked my path to the ISO folder.
Email him, sure he will help you out, works great i love it, much better than any previous version. The memory card management is awesome! Bring on V2.4
Yep I have the same issue. Can’t see my ISO, even though I specify the directory. Also, it doesn’t do batch jobs. Only one at a time. Yes bring on v2.4 with batch functions.
Looks really pretty though.
whoa!!! it works :) i had alot of problems trying many others but this one kicks ass i see the prog cant be used right away, wait like 5 min and than use it if you get the same problem.
Simon, rocket34psp, get in touch i am sure i can sort your issues. Things to check, the compressor function (start), will only show images that are .iso in the input folder & sub directories.
The manual download will search through the specified output directory & sub directories for .cso and .dax currently. Email me a screen shot of the options page, File > Options and i will try and provide you some assistance.
Nice Job!!!!
Fuck sony!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I moved my ISO files into my output directory and I’m able to compress them into my PSP, I can see the compressed files on my card, but I can’t play them. What am I doing wrong?
andyels, i use devhook to play the cso and iso images once i download them. Just downloaded this program. Awesome. So easy to use infact my son who is 11 can now download games all by himself!! thank you Maverick…
This is for all of you iso pirates out there u disgust me
U fucking sons of bitches steal money from the psp developers
this will only screw the psp
U cheap basterds can’t buy a real umd i hope u burn in hell
lol hey pirate shut the fuck up u peice of shit
LOL pirate…I can’t wait to try this…
fucking assholes who r u to say one thing or another unless ur stupit enough to say have a real psp 2.6 or higher.anyway PIRATE your in the wrong spot, and maby u shouldn’t be looking on this site or anyother psp -help or firmware or homebrew. your on ignorent ass
can someone tell me what is the best umd emulator out now? and how small does this make the iso?
the concept is great yet the fuctionality needs some working on. it cant seem to decompress any of my cso’s or compress my iso’s. always comes up with an error and closes
@21 - DevHook plays almost everything, but the iso compression varies by game, and some games dont play in iso form so run it via USB (there is a dehook mod for that) and try the CSO before moving it to your pspif the CSO doesn’t work then you will have to load it from ISO format, BTW - pirate, some of us actually have the games but don’t like switching UMDs, i have made isos of games i own because im too lazy to change the disk (polly want a mother fucker)
sorry
correction - some games dont play in iso format
Mine is slow as well. But also, it checks my floppy drive. It found my psp drive though, so I have no idea why it keeps checking the drive.
Hmm, seems like a problem with the psp autodetector. Maybe since it’s checking every single one of my drives even after the psp is detected. Anybody know how to contact Mavrick to tell him to fix it for people who have problems, problem ask him to make a manual drive selection rather than have the suto selection.
Well, I got mine to work by disableing my floppy drive, wonder if that’ll help the others?
we can always support the game by buying it. It’s all matter by why Sony sell expensive UMD. :)
Its says in the Readme to contact Maverick with any problems at Maverick_PSP@hotmail.co.uk or even get him on MSN Messanger…
Why are some of you saying “fuck sony” when you decided yourself that you would by their PSP. YOU made that choice. And if you were on top of your game, you would know that Sony is not making it’s profits from the PSP console, it’s from the games. Hence the expensive games and relatively fair priced PSP.
sony paid more for making the psp than it made for selling it don’t kno about now tho.
like WOW!
Why is it sooo slowww!?
Hell yeah.. tell sony to go fuck them self we aint paying nothing.. we get it all free mutha fucka … haha peace
Is it THIS slow for everybody? whats going on? =`\
@27 (Coasterfreak212)
THANKS! the a: FLOPPY DISK was really the PROBLEM!
Just disable it on the system (control panel) (A: will disappear from “my computer”) and it will stop lagging!
thanks!!!!!!!!!!
I contacted Mavrick, in v2.4 it’ll have a fix for the floppy. For now, you can disable it to use psp iso shrink.
Right, version 2.31 is nearly upon us, addressing some of the more urgent issues, of accessing the A: drive and not seeing your ISO’s. This is currently in testing and will be released shortly. Meanwhile as fix to see your ISO images if you cant now. Select the input folder as the next folder up, so if you have C:\PSP\ISO\ as the input folder select C:\PSP\ a minor bug which is fixed now. Many thanks to everyone that has tried it.
Hey for both Pirates and Non-Pirates.
Never say fuck sony. Cuz if you really want to get technical. Sony let us have homebrew. I can think of some serious ways to just disable homebrew in total. So be thankful that sony didn’t lock down the whole system. They let all of the first buyers promote the PSP for them and for that more people went out and bought one. Now. For those who are saying we are too cheap to buy a UMD. For fucks sake. Fucking 50-60 $ for a fucking UMD. Thats ridiculous. Are you kidding me. I can get 2 blowjobs for 60$. =)
It’s really high priced. Same thing with DVD movies. It boggles me how DVD’s have been out for almost 8 yrs now and still cost 20+ $. Ridiculous. So whats the outcome. ISO’s. Simple easy and effective. If sony weren’t such idiots they would make ISO’s instead of UMD’s. Match the ISO’s to each MAC address of each PSP and sell them this way. Any newb could’ve thought of this concept. There is no way you can Clone Mac Addresses on a PSP either because you can’t fit 2 NIC Cards on there. =)
@Pirate - For you to say “Fuck you pirates” and shit like that, ya need to realize you are on a website called PSP-HACKS…..if you hate pirates and ISOs so much, why are you on a website that has the word “HACK” in the URL? People that don’t have anything to do other than insult other people for their personal decisions need to get another life or just blow their brains out. If you don’t like Pirates and ISOs, avoid sites that have words like “Hack” in the URL. If you still feel tempted to do something so immature; get a program like ZoneAlarm Pro that has a Web Filter that automatically blocks websites for “hacking” content on them. @COCKMEISTER…don’t give Sony any ideas of the Mac Address thingie…they may haven’t thought of that! LOL
wow 40, you shut them up. lol i thought this spam fest wasnt gonna end. also this program is slow. could it be the .net framework?
I took maverick’s advice of setting the iso directory up one level, and then the ISO appeared properly. but when I tried to do a compresstion, it just immediately made the output CSO as a 0-byte file.
Nevermind, I realized that the compresion level was set to 0. Changed that, now it works.
Is this better than Dannykays PSP compressor when it comes to the compression and other stuff besides the interface?
Anyone Having Decompress Issues?? I keep getting this message:
System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: The system cannot find the path specified
at System.Diagnostics.Process.StartWithCreatProcess
at System.Diagnostics.Process.Start
at PSP_ISO_Shrinker.ISOCompress.CSODecompress
Then the windows crash screen comes up and the program closes. Just looking for any one else that might of had that problem.
how do u work it
Hey people, don’t worry, PSP ISO Shrink build 2.3.2 will be out soon. It is a quick bug-fix release which addresses the floppy issue, the decompression issue. Comestic changes will come soon. I’ve just tested out the pre-release build for Maverick_PSP backstage, and I’m using it with no problems. ^^
just to keep things clear, i didnt make this, maverick did ;-) on another note, great program.
can this program compress the files any smaller than danny kay compresser or can it just compress them the same amount
It compresses them the same i think, but is packed with so may features, its cool. Sooo much better than Danny Kays
hmmm…well its cool but i dont think ill be usin it im fine with what i already got….good for other people tho!
PSP Iso Shrink does not even recognize my psp. I already removed the A: Floppy Drive but PSP ISO Shrink still doesn’t detect my PSP what should i do?.
You have to install it rather than a simple extract to directory.
I did install PSP Iso Shrink and it says PSP-Disconnected even if i specify which folder it’s in on the options page.Why doesn’t it recognize my PSP?
hey pirate u butt fucking homo when sony stop with the dodgy bussines practices and respect their costomers and other companys thay may gain some loyalty,how meny other people had more than 2 ps2’s of the first model caus the fukin laser only worked for about two weeks.I HAD 5(phony gay station poo’s) good job it was still in waranty for the first 4……… DIE SONY DIE DIE SONY DIE and dont get me started on DIGITAL RIGHTS MANAGMENT.
Sayian, I have the same problem, but when I try to do it manually, it takes over two hours! Thats too long… i think
