open manager version number 5,002. looks like they added something about copying so this update is good for people that likes to copy stuff I guess I dunno...... still no big updates like it was meant to be last month with the mentioning of a psp emulator and dreamcast emulator, thing is we havent got not 1 update on the "progress" yea.....I have one more day till I upgrade if nothing ground breaking comes through between now and mid friday. This isn't a good start. I'll predict what's to come before the day is over 1. Backup Manager version 5,002 that supports a better interface and ftp app program number 203. :musicus:

I can see that it runs games directly, without having to access \app_home\PS3_HOME On XMB. What if we took this feature and put it in XMBoot so we could launch games direct from the xmb link icon made by XMboot.
The we can run games direct with out having to enter backupmanager and lanuch games from the \app_home\PS3_HOME folder in xmb.
This have to be possible????

Check your FTP client connection mode. I do not think obm FTP supports passive mode. Also make sure obm have started the FTP server. A
simply telnet to your ps3 ip on port 21 will do the trick. Btw the obm FTP server is not
stable. I suggest to use the blackbox
FTP server instead. Much more stable.
