Uberjack has posted a new release of his MSX emulator for the PSP, heres the release details and more info from the coder himself:
Version 3.4.5 of fMSX is out - it addresses most of the features mentioned in the Future of fMSX post. Here’s the complete list of changes:
MSXMUSIC and MSXAUDIO emulation can now be toggled on and off at any time
FDD (Floppy Disk Drive) controller activity indicator - displays an icon whenever the virtual floppy drive is busy
Optional hi-resolution renderer for screen modes 6, 7 and text-80
While MSXAUDIO and MSXMUSIC emulation speed is not perfect, it is significantly more improved than with the earlier versions - with only one of the two enabled, the emulator can still run at full speed (at 333MHz with V-Sync disabled). Since most MSX programs do not use either, keep the two turned off, enabling one or the other when necessary. Note that to initialize the sound emulation engine, fMSX PSP will take longer to start up if either is enabled.
As mentioned in the previous post, high-resolution engine is now available, but its use is discouraged - emulation is slower, visual improvements are marginal. Emulation is also slightly inaccurate - the solid-color 8-pixel wide borders to the sides of the image will not be rendered in high-resolution mode due to image constraints. There’s more discussion in documentation, if you’re interested.
