Joek2100 has released a new version of his custom firmware plugin Music PRX, which is based off of iR Shell’s MP3 decoding module, and allows users to playback music while running a UMD game, homebrew, or even while browsing the XMB.

Version 0.55 fixes a bug which caused some MP3s to hang at the end of the file. Also, it’s important to note this release uses the media engine for decoding, so it is compatible with most UMD games and homebrew. However, the author notes it is incompatible with certain homebrew applications that also use the ME such as SNES TYL and copy protected ATRAC3 music files.
