    Theres a PSP AV cable but which one you get depends on your model as libregkd said. If you dont wanna buy any cables though you can mod your psp and use RemoteJoy to display it on your computer.

    Alright, so as many of you know from my thread in The Spam Zone, I got my cables.

    One question: How I do I get the game to cover the whole screen? In the options when switching it over to the TV, I appropriately set it to 16:9, and it covers the whole screen when on the PSP system area, but once the game starts, it's not all covered. I've even tried adjusting the aspect on the television, and the closest to full I can get is "zoom."

    How can I make it cover the whole screen? I can make a video if necessary to show what I mean.

    As libregkd said you'll need to install custom firmware.
    I'd go with 6.60 pro-c as it's the newest and most compatible firmware.
    Theres some tutorials but the dont really cover a lot. Id guide you through it if you like, its a relatively simple process.

    Nothing. It's all done with software.

    I don't get it.

    If it's software, how does it fit the PSP to the TV's max. resolution?

    No, it's a custom operating system for the psp that allows it to do stuff like run homebrew, and it also alows it to stretch to fit different TVs.

    Oh, you download it to the PSP? I thought you meant the computer.

    Nope. You download it on the pc then transfer it to the psp via usb.
