libLZR v0.11 Offers A Great Library For Developers

PSP homebrew - libLZR v0.11

The backyard brew technician, BenHur, has just released a new library for PSP homebrew developers. LibLZR v0.11 is an open source library with features to decompress and encode LZR-compressed data. LZR-compressed data is often used in PSP firmware resource files. BenHur, the mastermind behind the popular Intrafont, has this to say about his new application:

  • The library de- and encodes LZR streams (as used in the Sony PSP firmware).
  • Decompression results should be identical to Sonys internal decompression algorithm. Please report incompatible streams to benhur(at)alpenjodel(dot)de.
  • Compression currently does not actually compress the data, but only produces a valid LZR stream. Future versions of this library might implement real compression.

And, here’s your changelog for this first release:

  • bug fixed where certain LZR streams were not decompressed correctly
  • potential bug fixed that could prevent correct decompression of certain LZR streams
  • initial public release

Thanks to BenHur for his contributions to the development scene. His resources are highly valued among the homebrew community.
