Homebrew developer Zx-81 dropped by our forums to announce that he has updated his CPC Emulator for the PSP, PSPCAP32, to version 1.4.0. This latest build sees a number of changes from the previous release including major speed improvements as well as a number of bugfixes.

Here's the change log which details all the changes:

* Major speed improvements, frame rate reached 55 fps at 222Mhz
* on startup and 67 fps at 266Mhz
* Fix IR keyboard issue with fw >= 3.80 for FAT PSP
* Add gzipped disk file support, reduce disk file size from 190k to 20k !
* (you may gzip original dsk file using www.7-zip.org)
* Of course, gzipped disk files are also browsable using disk explorer
* inside the emulator, and when possible, they can be run automatically.
* Add eboot's music
* A thumbnail image is now displayed in the file requester
* while selecting any file with the same name of a previously
* saved game (snapshot, disk, keyboard, settings).
* It might be very helpful to recognize that game later if you
* have thousand different games in your disk and snapshot folders !
* The virtual keyboard is now usable in the file requester menu to
* choose the first letter of the game you search !
* In the emulator menu you can go directly to keyboard and settings
* menu using the L-Trigger key.
* Fix random black screen issue
* Source code can now be compiled to build a linux version
