Prior to the update only one or the other of these could be done at a time. The game console will also now support sequential playback of movies under the Video menu, and will allow you to view pictures and listen to music at the same time. When viewing a movie, along with the other controls for play, pause, fwd, etc, there is now a Scene Search which displays scenes throughout the movie at about 60 second increments, allowing the selection of the scene by viewing a still image of it. The system will now also let users set custom theme settings in the Themes menu and a number of features for viewing media have been added. Some of the updates with the new 3.7 version include revisions to increase security and an increased number of Playstation network titles that can be played under “Game”. The new update can be picked up automatically through the Network Update Wi-Fi connection on the PSP.
Sony has released a new firmware update available now for the PSP, bringing the version up to 3.7.
