PSV Webbrowser: Commands you may not know

Like the PlayStation3, the PS VITA also has several commands implemented in it's webbrowser which can trigger several system functions. Here are a few:

about:memory

This command simply shows the webbrowser memory usage. The resulting content is displayed by using the data URI scheme. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_URI_scheme)



psns:browse

This command supports several arguments, the most usables are:

  • psns:browse?category=
  • psns:browse?product=

By defining a category or product ID, this command will redirect you to the PSN Store and show you the chosen category/product. A few examples:

  • psns:browse?category=PN.P3.US-PN.P3.GAME.US-BASE
    • opens PS3 store US region
  • psns:browse?product=IP9100-PCSI00002_00-MUSICUNLIMITED00
    • opens Music Unlimited product

The syntax for categories works as follows:

PN + CONSOLE ID + REGION ID + PN + CONSOLE ID + STORE ID + REGION ID + PAGE

Common Console ID's are:
  • P3 --> PS3
  • VT --> PS VITA
  • PC --> MEDIA GO / PSP
Common Store ID's are:
  • GAME
  • VIDEO


psns:redeem?code1=123&code2=456&code3=789

This command will inmediantly prompt you to the PSN Stores' redeem function, taking the arguments with it.
