PPSSPP supports save states, dynamic recompilation (JIT) and has rudimentary support of ad hoc wireless networking. To decode PSP multimedia data PPSSPP uses the FFmpeg software library, which was enhanced to enable it to handle Sony's proprietary ATRAC3plus audio format as used by the PSP. PPSSPP offers graphical features that are enhancements over the PSP's capabilities, such as higher screen resolutions, antialiasing, image scaling, support for shaders, and linear andanisotropic filtering.
The ports of PPSSPP for mobile devices offer additional features specific to each platform, such as 'immersive mode' forAndroid devices, support of the multimedia buttons within Symbian devices and screen stretching on BlackBerry 10 devices to support square screens. All ports of PPSSPP for mobile devices support the use of accelerometers, keyboards and gamepads as input devices.

PPSSPP Emulator best settings for all devices
ppsspp has had some updates so the settings have changed. Therefore if i watch a video or read someone elses settings in a google search they're always outdated. I'm having some issues with my settings for games i have played fine on other devices. Buffered rendering messes up on Ridge racer which i can play on even my chinese gaming device the jxd s7800b fine. Other games like the third birthday crash. Coded arms is realy slow. I'm not sure if that's normal but i though i saw it running fine on a really cheap dual core chines tablet with a sub hd resolution.
