CTorrentPSP — A PSP Torrent Client, Duh!
greg | March 18, 2008
Here’s a first — a torrent client for the PSP from developer danzel. CTorrentPSP is ported from Enhanced CTorrent with a minimal feature set: no protocol encryption, https support, peer exchange, etc… Nonetheless, it’s functional.
But, what I’m wondering is — danzel mentions this too — why would you use a PSP to download torrents anyway? You have a PC for that.
In any event, awesome work danzel.
Known issues:
- Downloads stop: this usually occurs when a download is going fast (~60k/s), the transfer stops and usually doesn’t start up again. Either wait to see if it starts itself again or quit and restart CTorrentPSP.
- The Interface is boring and there is nothing to do while downloading.
- The bitfield isn’t saved to disk, as such when you quit and relaunch it has to rescan all of the files for complete chunks. I don’t plan on fixing this (or any other problems).
See README.PSP for additional info.

Nice!
for everyone wondering why this is useful… I’ve got 2 big ones for me personally….
1 – vacations. I dont have an ultralight yet and Im just not lugging a standard laptop around, I take my psp, and now i can d/l torrents… frickin sweet
2 – if you like me and work in government contractor bureaucracy hell, and have limited internet and certainly no un-workrelated browsing, then this is great if you can connect to a wireless network from work, which i can .
but whats the point using psp to download torrents?
when i can use my home pc or laptop to do the job a dam site faster
but never the less it is cool
You will know the difference when you pay for your electric power :)
However the current CTorrentPSP seems to need psplink o_O
bullshit. It doesnt need psplink, was a false assumption. Nice brew (if you need torrents however).
1 less application running on my old pc can improve its performance. I’m poor I don’t have the money to upgrade.
you use it because when you’re abroad and don’t have your computer you can download music…and there are lots of people that don’t have a laptop:P
touche.
I don’t even have my own computer, so this will do me lots of good.
However, how do you get the .torrent files?
With the psp’s web browser? …..>.>;;
Good for music, not movies though. unless you can find a psp format movies. even then it would be a very slow download ( 60 kb\s)!
The average for my encoded movies is around 500MB….
(500 MB) / (60 (KB / s)) = 2.37037037 hours
If your on vacation or something…. going swimming or something… before you head out to the beach, connect to the Hotel’s Wireless, start the download, go swimming, you come back, ;) a movie to watch!
Ah…you forgot a 7…Any way this is a great app I have 3 PSP’s, a laptop and 3 wifi conections. To me this is a very interesting development.
This may even win the homebrew contest.
-TKG
XD, this is a pretty nice addition but, if you say happen to download isos or csos using PSPtorrent, how would you transfer them to the psp….lmfao, kind of useless unless you read MK2k’s quote on electric power, lmaoz
Why would you need to transfer it to your psp when it is already in your psp?
uncreative idiot edy… download a iso/cso image and then use pspfiler to place (extract(optional)) the downloaded file in the right place, now thats good use of this app and the filer app. extremely helpful if you are on vacation or smth. and away form your pc.
I guess so, but I wonder how much power it would take to download w/e file using this
how bout using irsiell to move the iso or cso (if u got enough space)
well.. i aint got irshell, but i guess its a good app, so i’ll hook it up now.
omg!!!! ive been waiting for this for soooooooooooooo long and i dunno y lol but yay!!
if your not going to update, whats the point? another homebrew that is half-assed? either make them or dont. we dont need another program with tons of glitches
this works wonderful.thanx danzel. u guys if u dont need this or u dont like it. STFO, n GTFO. thnx again.
what’s STFO?
I’ve been out of the english language forums loop for a while and can’t keep up with the acronyms.
it means
Shut The Fuck Up!
yea but the O in STFO is supposed to be a U…
WOWOWOWO this should deffinatly join the homebrew competition id deff vote this as a winner
this will have my vote too
mine too! I could go to work and upload off works wireless. (whats the psp max wireless transfer rate?)
i dont undertsnad how to install this
where all the files download to?
what would be cool is when you donwload a mp3 it downloads to music folder..
can you please be smart and after the download use pspfiler to put your mp3 in the music folder? thank you.
hahaha!!! i did.. im new to that.. but im trying to figure out how to copy file over to another folder.. im reading right now.. would be a lot easyer to if you could do that in the program itself. with out need to use pspfiler… just a thought.. good app by the way.
that would lead to a new era of operating systems – for psp.
well… that would lead to a new era of operating systems – for psp.
woo now i can download from school, 2MB+ per second YA!
thats a useful reason if your internet is down at home
MOST schools block torrents and other p2p traffic.
use a proxy server thats what i do.
you run a torrent client through a proxy?
no, he runs your mother through a proxy. ofc the torrent client! please read a couple of times more if you don’t understand the first time
yes they will ^
hmm if eveyrone wants to download torrents and move them around without a pc well u got 2 options pspfiler or irshell irshell is more worth the memory tho
and if uwanna unzip torrents after donwloading them from the psp browser which = psp search for torrent well then unzip the file to ur psp put the torrent into ur ctorrent/torrent folder then ur downloading and just moving XD
With this and Irshell i never even need to visit my computer again :D
This is awesome been waiting a long time for this I would vote for this to I hope there will updates to it very good work danzel love this app.
For me it’s a question of “Why do you have a pc?” “Because my psp can’t download torrents.” Now all I need is PSPhotoshop and I can just leave my pc in usbhost mode and never see windows again!
your scaring me dude.
YAY this is what I been waiting for Thx soo much^^
Impressive, Could come in handy if u can choose where to download it to.
Nice little app, useful if you got a wireless connection on the move. i.e hotels, even some pubs! Hope the creator still works on refining it and resolving the bugs though! Please?
Wow, first useful piece of homebrew I’ve seen in ages. Thanks!
ooo and well not sure it might come in handy but dont suggest it cuz its a homebrew in the works its nervOS for psp good for maybe later to use if irshell gets old
i honestly like irshell alot better, wish it was continued, but nerv is ok, don’t like the layout tho
Plz dont abandon app…many ppl will use daily…and enter da comp…UL Win …. Great work keep it up…wont lie app duz need lots of work…but great for first release…and many ppl use as a substitute for a comp…even though not very effective so many will appreciate this…
freakin’ awesome! imagine:
pspfiler + psptorrent + upcoming divx support!!
download movies, music & games directly to your psp! add a keyboard here and why even consider owning a laptop?
oh another cool thing in there would be if you could download the torrent straight from the app.. ;p just throwing ideas out there…
dude I swear I thought of this like two years ago don’t have too much use for it now but still an awesome app for the psp
Well I only have dial up at home since I moved to this pathetic hick town where high speed isn’t available. A few times a week I travel an hour out of town for a course and recently discovered an open wireless hub in the area.
So I would find this quite useful.
DUDE!!!! awesome, now i can torrent pr0n without my parents knowing :-)
Right On!!! Torrent > Download > Filer Move to Video folder > Now a utility to convert videos to psp native format on the psp and you could make the psp more self-sufficient.
Now there’s an idea a converter that runs off the psp directly. Thou I wonder how long it would take a hypothetical application to do such a job on the psp’s system.
This is great. Now, when I’m away from my PC, I can get torrents going. One question though, can I transfer incomplete torrents to my PC for further download and vice versa?
why would you not be able to?? Cut & copy will always work….Some torrent clients will add a bogus file extention to incomplete files (Utorrent adds .!UT) but most clients will allow you to turn that off.
Thank you :)
rocking :) a great idea thanks 4 this
pretty cool, thanks for this.
how do you download torrent files from psp web browser??? or is it possible??
awesome!
hmmm….looks great! so….uhhh….when’s the newsgroup downloader client coming? :P
don´t work, it stops at: choose your network connection, when i choose my connection, it freeze,
can somebody help me? thx
Turn your network switch on!
lmao
sumone in the forums had this same idea and i wuz just laughing saying to myself, yea right… but now it actually exists lol… would it be faster to do it on a PC?
ummm…no
Well…yes, actually. PSP uses 8.2.11b wifi, which goes at best 11mb/s, WHICH IS EPICALLY SLOW!!!!
Anyway, you will only get maybe realistacally 100kb/s. And if your internet connection is someting like cable, then this will be grind.
Sorry to condradict you fidg, but I’m not. LMFAO
wifi B is 11mbps speed that is something around up to 1.2mB/s download speed.. because 8mbps = 1mB/s
I am retarded!! I apparently cant read. Swatmajor is correct. For some reason i read the question as ” would it be faster THAN on a pc”
I stand corrected!
Good catch Swat!
War driving, here me come.
Wi-Fi Sniffer App, Mac Address Spoof App, CTorrentPSP, 16GB Sony Memory Stick Pro Duo and your set to go!!
this seems alright its working for me but it seems like it only handles 1 torrent at a time so far and after u pick the torent theres no more user input but it works great
w00t, now to download eboots straight to my psp, great app <3
Pirating Station Portable. I love it lol.
nyahaha
worx great thanx alot :)
Nice…Just downloaded a torrent file in the web browser, copied it to the torrent directory with irshell downloaded it, and copied the mp3 file to the music folder with irshell….didn’t have to touch my laptop to download the music…
Awesome…
wait? you downloaded a torrent file from psp web browser??
Yes sir…I downloaded a .torrent file from the psp web browser…Copied it to the torrent folder with irshell and downloaded the music with this new program…
i cant get irshell to work on 3.90..2 i tryed to patch it up with 3.90 patch but no luck… how are you runing yours??
nevermind i got it working thanks for the tip..
havin same problem,freezes after connection selected,it is on.
i had the exact same problem you need to set your GAME folder to 3.XX kernal then it should work
QUOTE “I don’t plan on fixing this (or any other problems).” Why this is fantastic?
cause there is no choice to update this, cause you are such an asshole, wanting it to be fixed. you are so UNCOOL. be an wise man, read some books and head back to school. quit been an drop out.
who you calling UNCOOL. by the way my name is COOL. you are such an kid you are. and F??K OFF and suck my D??K you dipshit
lol you dont even know how to reply. you made an double POST. you are an NOOB. guess your mom never taught you how to type and and send u to school
…LAME.
Pretty ironic that a kid with horrible grammar and spelling is telling another kid to go back to school…
…owned?
Ok all the people named “cool” that replied besides my original post were not me (notice my name is a link). Now, you have to be the most unintelligent person to tell me I am an asshole and wanting it fixed…if you notice I said that it was an awesome project and should not be abandoned, I was giving him a compliment dip shit! Thanks to everyone else who also saw this fagot ten year old for the retard he is…
huh so how un cool is uncool?
like this?
what port does this use? do I need to forward it on my router??
This is Great, I can now download films, games, everything on my psp while im at work…..all for free…love it! Cheers!
it barely even works, i tried downloading a movie overnight and it came through at 3kb/s then tried it on pc pc and i got full speed.
Good app tho.
you can download the music files from torrents… but most the bloody time they come in RAR files… bring on the PSPRAR!!
also if u get the files in mp3 format and they are in elsewhere from MUSIC folder u can use PSP Filer to move them!
Irshell can UN-RAR them!
Im sure It has lotts of room for optimization, but thats why he left behind the source code.
don´t work, it stops at: choose your network connection, when i choose my connection, it freeze,
can somebody help me? thx
Danzel says: “Turn your network switch on!”
are you think i´m dummy?
can some body help me? thx
i had the same problem well it only works 4 me when i put only one torrent in the torrent folder so delete all but one torrent and it may fix your problem i hope this helps :)
PSP RAR? You mean the thing that Ir shell does? (ZIPs Too!)
@ mikemania hey ur router problem i usually have the same problem like my laptop would work but not my psp so try unplugging ur router power then back in and if not that try unplugging ur modem then plug that back in tell me how it works after and to make sure see iff ur pspbrowser works before u use ctorrent
…dude.
lol…yeah, just unplugging the router and modem is not going to change anything…the only reason I’ve ever done that is when nothing was connecting to the internet and I HAD to reset my modem…but if one thing connects and another doesn’t you’ve got other setting and stuff you have to mess with…
yes ok, i give up, i tried all of them, but nothing was going to work, but thx, i put my pc for torrents now
Fucking Sweet, Finally Someone done this for us. Thanks alot.
Reason why this is so sweet is because it allows ppl to download 24/7 and if you happen to sleep next to a computer its less noisy. Its really wicked. Plus its alot cheaper to run a psp for 24hrs than a pc or laptop. Gonna try this now. And now i have a better reason to use my 8gb memory card.LOL Thanks again
This is an epic release, props man. I love this type of homebrew, keep the updates coming.
wow
right when i needed it to
I LOVE YOU INTERNET FOR BRINGING ME THIS AMAZING THING
Great App. Always wondered why it hadnt been done before.
An old dream come true!
I wish Danzel continue improving it!
Wow this looks cool im gonna download right now xD
At first it froze when I selected the connection name, so I put it in my game380 folder. It let me choose my connection and then it froze on state3 and shut off. Anyone actually got this working or have any ideas on fixing this?
finally!! been waiting for this for AAAAAAGGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSS
keep it up!
Silly me, You have to have enough memory left on the MS or the DL wont start.
this sucks it dealeted my psp folder
wtf…..what kind of torrents would u dl to ur psp….they cant fit on the goddamn memory sticks anyway…….nonetheless…..great release!
Why not fit? do you only have 256mb?
When it gets to connection status 3 the psp crashes.
Does anyone know why or how I can fix this.
well u might not hav enough memory i had that problem 2.
im new to this stuff can someone give me info on how to make the files work please?
im new to this stuff can someone give me info on how to make the files work please?
does psp filer move files or does it copy and paste like ir shell
Most torrents are too big for your PSP yes, but this just shows what an achievement homebrew has come. Great app :)
Just wanted to point out that the reason for DLing Torrents via PSP would be to save electricity.
how do u put the ctorrent on the psp how do u get it to work do any one knows if so can u explain
comparing the psp and pc have their own disadvantages and advantages. but what i like about it is, you can always bring out your psp when there is a wifi connection. you can’t always do that with pc or laptop. you can download while standing and moving around.
cheerio
