MultiMAN v04.14.00 Base and Full (CEX and DEX) PS3 Update Arrives

BD-Mirror option now supports USB HDDs mounted as /dev_usb000 to /dev_usb127
BD-Mirror option uses different approach now and doesn't move the PS3_GAME folder of USB games and doesn't modify the mount table
After using BD-Mirror for USB games, the usb drive is still accessible in XMB (Video/Music/Photo/Saves)
Improved disc-less support with BD-Mirror option enabled

USB Ports issues:

When using more than one USB device mM will disconnect/reconnect them from/to the USB bus in the proper order
This fixes games that crash when started from USB when multiple devices are connected

NTFS/PFS usage:

It is now possible to use any NTFS usb drive without configuring its Vendor/Device IDs in USB.CFG
When switching to NTFS/PFS mode use only one USB HDD connected (mM supports up to 2 partitions: FAT32+NTFS, NTFS+NTFS, FAT32+FAT32)
To access the contents of NTFS drives use mmOS and /pvd_usb000 /pvd_usb001 (games from NTFS drives won't show in other display modes)

Other:

Better support for data CD/DVD/BD discs and improved "Enable Direct Disc Access" function
Improved BD-Mirror function for games on internal HDD
Games started from mmOS icons/shortcuts handle BD-Mirror/Ext.Game Data options properly
Online update server updated (5320 PS3 game covers and 3420 PS1/PS2 game covers)
Updated showTIME media player (for mM) to version 04.01.264
Updated 8 translation files

Install Package Files (standalone application):

Supports split pkg files named in the following format: filename.pkg.0 -> filename.pkg.63, filename.pkg.001 -> filename.pkg.064, filename.pkg.66600 -> filename.pkg.66663
Upon launch/refresh the following folders are scanned: /dev_usb***/, /dev_usb***/PKG, /dev_usb***/packages, /dev_hdd0/PKG, /dev_hdd0/packages
Updated stDISC application (better drive reset timing and support for 4.30CFW)
Updated gameDATA, bdRESET and lastGAME applications to support 4.30CFW
Updated showTIME media player (standalone) to version 04.01.264 (CEX/DEX)

The showtime version provided with mM as standalone acts as the build-in one so it returns to mM. If you wish to quit to XMB either use the official build or use {PS} button -> Quit to XMB.

About NTFS - if you previously configured usb.cfg just stick to it. Without USB.CFG only two partitions will be available - that's it.

Long winded but I have loads of games on my OFW console so data transferred them to new one but need to then backup them to pc since there is about 50 gig of stuff so I can put the hard drive from my old console into my new CFW console, ftp back the games then put the 60 gig hd in my OFW console and data transfer the same games so I have the games on both consoles.

How exactly do I copy games with multiman in such a way that the XMB still shows them as installed?

lol, thanks, that answers that part, but still don't know why I installed 4.40.00 and it still says 4.06.02. Every time I want to play a game it asks me to update and i have to say no because it puts on psmove stuff that breaks it with a 3d exclamation mark. I figured the old mmcm update server would have the right update.

So which version do I actually have, and where can I manually get non-psmove update files? so what version am i on? 4.4 or 4.06?

One reason it may not be connecting is because according to deank there is no server any longer stating "The server issue is that there is no more a server."

As to what the alternative option is, only time will tell but some people suggested being able to create their own although that hasn't been implemented at this time.

Just updated my cobra to v6 and the firmware along with it. Went to update mmcm and it said that it couldn't contact the update server. It says in system info that it's 04.06.02.

I wouldn't care so much except that it also can't seem to connect to whatever server is needed to download game updates like it used to. Anyway, I got the 4.40.00 base cex pkg file and installed it.

Started mmcm again and it asked me the 3 questions and loaded the default theme. I went to system information and it still says 04.06.02 despite the xmb saying it's 4.40.00. It also still won't connect to any servers.

No there is nothing wrong with my network, I connected the ps3 a web site just fine and can ftp to and from it. What's going on here?

try to re-enable bd, but still it didn't working ? it said 'BD-ROM emulator couldn't start' ??

Update: it was working, I read all the information about 4.41 CFW and also information about MultiMan 4.40 very carefully , then I realized I miss one step as recommendation to make it working with MM 4.40, there was missing one step 4.41.1 Lite CFW.

so, I tried to install 4.41.1 Lite again after backup then install 4.41.2 Lite and then install MM 4.40 again, the BDrom working perfectly without re-enable it.
