Curious as to how you guys are saving your Replays. Are you doing it out of the Replay Theater or is there somewhere else I am missing? I am trying to save mine onto my PSP, but for some reason it will not recognize it. I can transfer Photos just fine but as far as a Replay goes, it starts then tells me the "A USB Flash Memory Device is not connected" or some crap like that. Any help would be much appreciated :)

Yes, you need to back completely out to the main menu and use the replay theatre there. In the options at the right side there will be two for interfacing with the USB drive. One option saves the currently selected replay to the drive, the other imports the replay stored on the drive.

Unfortunately TT can only recognize one replay on the drive at a time, so keep that in mind and be careful not to overwrite any replay you didn't have backed up.


Sorry, not really sure what to tell you about the USB flash error. You say you can save pictures fine, so I don't have a clue why you couldn't save the replays. Many different programs for the PS2 are very picky about what USB drives they use, but normally if it's not going to work it just doesn't work for anything. Never heard of a program recognizing a drive for one purpose and not recognizing it for another. Try switching the USB port. Other than that, I just recommend picking up some cheap stick. 1GB USB drives can be had for $30 these days.

ok, Thanks. Thats where I was trying to transfer my replay, (From the replay theater) but no luck. I would think a PSP would work with the Playstation, so maybe i'm just doin something wrong. Have thought about getting a USB Drive, but then again the only time i'd use it is for the PS2, and that will be gone when the PS3 comes out and then the PS3 and the PSP will talk to each other. Thanks again for your help.

You can save multiple replays to your USB by changing the name of the replay on you USB after you save it. Example: change REPLAY.DAT to YZFR1.DAT. You can do this as many times as your USB will hold. Of course the PS2 will only recognize the one labled REPLAY.DAT, so when you want to view that replay change it back to REPLAY.DAT before you attempt to load it to your game, and you can keep the rest of them on your USB without being touched.

You say you're trying to save it to your PSP? Not sure if that's a typo but I'd be 99.9% sure you'll only have any luck if you plug a bog-standard memory stick into the PS2 USB port.

Not a typo :) Pluggin my PSP into it. It is suppose to work as a regular USB Drive. As I said, I have no problem transfering Pictures to it, but it will not accept the Replay files for some reason. Still tinkerin with it. Have heard of others doing it with the PSP, but have not gotten any responses from them yet :( So hopefully will get it straightened out soon.

Ah, I didn't know that was possible. And I'm out of my depth. :doh: :P
