Requirements:

How to install Screen Capture on your PSP
- Extract the Screencapture pack anywhere on your computer
- Connect your PSP to your PC and check if there is a seplugins folder on the root of your memory stick.
- If you don’t have a seplugins folder, copy the seplugins folder to the root of your memory stick as shown below
- If you don’t have a seplugins folder, check if you have these 3 files inside it:
- Copy screenshotbmp.prx from the seplugins from the folder you’ve extracted to the seplugins folder on the root of your memory stick
- Go to the seplugins folder and open these files:
game.txt pops.txt vsh.txt
- On each file add the line:

ms0:/seplugins/screenshotbmp.prx
game = inside a PSP game pops = inside a POPS loader game/ PSX game vsh = on your XMB
The images below were taken with this plugin. It’s my character on Monster Hunter Freedom Unite ![]()

for ChickHen you need to press L + the note key

Hmm… This’ll be even more interesting when a video recorder for PSP appears.

di ko pa nagagamit un pero simple lang kasi to
I’ve been using the plugin since I got my first PSP.

now i fkin understand what it means by “adding the line” to vsh.. i was so confused about this untill now,, thank you very much for this..r u a girl? if u are then u must be smart..
hi, just would like to clarify
so if im on chickHen running 5.00m33-6, i follow everything and just skip the turn off and recovery menu steps? i can go straight to L+note key?
uhmm, panu po kumuha ng screenshot??
press the note key
Let’s say I want to change the sub folder that the pics end up in, how do I go about doing that?
i have chikhen an cfwenabler on my psp3000. it doesnt seem to work. i did everything in the instructions except the turning it off part. help please.
if sumoe has 5.xx via chickHEN: THEN DO the FOLLOWING:–
1. Create a file named – CXMB – on the root of ur memory stick and place just the .prx file in it.
2. create or copy the seplugins folder on the root of ur memory stick.
3. create .txt document’sss named- game, vsh and pops
4. write the following in those 3 folders-ms0:/seplugins/screenshotbmp.prx 1
5. 1 means that they have been enabled
6. ensure that that the .prx file is also in the seplugins folder.
7. when done press the note key and u will see that the picture is being saved.
8. Note key is on the left side of select key…….
