How do I prevent my PSP screen from auto dimming? -solved-

Post by Inazuma »

I've been playing Hatsune Miku Project Diva on my PSP 3000 a lot lately, and I am annoyed at how the screen automatically dims after a few minutes of not pressing any buttons. Normally, that wouldn't be a problem, but I can't even watch a short music video without the screen dimming a few times during it.

I messed around in the PSP system settings and found an option for a screen saver. I think I set it to 15 minutes. So this must be a software level auto dim. That doesn't make much sense though. If the game is gonna play a four minute music video, it wouldn't dim the screen during it.

Is there some setting for this that I am unaware of? I just want to enjoy watching Miku perform without constantly thinking about the screen auto dimming every other minute.

*edit*

I figured it out. In the main PSP menu under Power Save Settings, there is an option called Backlight Auto-Off. I originally had it set to 10 minutes, but it would actually activate after only 1 or 2 minutes. I changed it to Off and that fixed it. (^_^)
