This commit completely redesigns how users browse, view, and install payloads. Backend C Changes: - Updated C structures to support multiple concurrent payload sources (config.h, repository.h). - Modified repository.c and config.c to parse and retain multi-source JSON payloads. - Allowed the HTTP server to serve the dynamically merged JSON sources. Frontend React Changes: - Converted StorageHub.jsx into a grid-based "App Shop" catalog layout. - Replaced the modal payload view with a seamless full-page PayloadDetailPanel.jsx component for extended markdown reading and details. - Added RepositoryContext.jsx to unify repository fetching across views. - Styled payload cards with a dynamic marquee animation for overflowing text names (PayloadName.jsx). - Allowed external icons, with a fallback placeholder for payloads without one. - Polished padding, margins, and transition effects for spatial controller navigation. - Removed duplicate versioning strings in payload titles and tweaked dashboard header text.
PS5 Payload Manager
A modern, web-based dashboard to easily manage, import, and automatically load payloads on your PS5.
Features
- Web-Based Interface: A modern dashboard to manage payloads from your PC, phone, or the PS5 itself.
- Import Payloads: Easily add new payloads from a USB drive or download them from the cloud repository.
- Automated Startup: Set up a list of payloads to load automatically whenever you start the manager.
- Home Screen Shortcut: Installs a dedicated "Payload Manager" app icon to your PS5 home screen for quick access.
- Auto-Close Disc Player: Optional setting to automatically close the Disc Player on startup (useful for BD-JB users).
Installation
Using an Autoloader (Recommended)
It is highly recommended to use Payload Manager together with an Autoloader:
pldmgr.elf is already included as the default payload in the latest versions of the Autoloaders linked above.
If you are using an older version and don't want to update the entire autoloader, you can simply:
- Place
pldmgr.elfinto yourautoloaddirectory. - Add
pldmgr.elfas the only entry in yourautoload.txtconfig file.
Standalone / Manual Loading
You can also manually load the manager like any other .elf file. Grab the latest version from the Releases page.
Custom Repositories
You can add third-party payload repositories to the manager. To learn how to create your own repository JSON and host it, see the Custom Repositories Guide.
Translations
PS5 Payload Manager supports multiple languages thanks to the community! If you'd like to help translate the app into your native language or improve existing translations, please visit our Crowdin project. All translations are managed exclusively through Crowdin.
Translation Guidelines:
- Please only submit translations in languages you are fluent in.
- Only translate strings when you know exactly what they mean in the context of the app. If you're unsure, it's much better to leave it untranslated than to guess incorrectly.
- Pro Tip: The best way to translate is to have the Payload Manager running on your PS5 or browser so you can navigate the UI and see the exact context of the buttons and descriptions you are translating!
