RIF Ripper is a homebrew app developed by cuevavirus, and allows for someone to download license files for any content purchased by the currently signed in PSN account. PKG entitelement links can be used too, but

Usage

  1. Download the VPK file and install it with VitaShell.
  2. Connect to the internet and sign into the PSN account you want to dump content from.
  3. Open the application and the backup process will begin automatically. Saved licenses are stored at ux0:/rif-ripper.
    • It is recommended that you do not delete this folder, so that if the backup process is interrupted, or if you have purchased additional items, previously downloaded licenses are not downloaded again the next time you run RIF Ripper. During the backup process the screen may dim or turn off, however the console will not be put into suspend mode.

RIFs for PlayStation Vita content are saved as NoNpDRM compatible fake RIFs, while licenses for PS3 and PSP content are saved as RAPs.

Troubleshooting

If you had problems with RIF Ripper creating files, follow these steps:

  • Uninstall RIF Ripper.
  • Install the latest version of RIF Ripper.
  • Delete ux0:/rif-ripper. Then run RIF Ripper again.

Changelog

Version 1.2.1

  • Fixed a file permission error.

Version 1.2.0

  • Previously it was noted that the licenses for some PS3 content could not be downloaded. These are now correctly identified as DRM-free content, which do not require licenses. Therefore, RIF Ripper works with all PS3 content.
  • There are a small number of PS3 content with PS Vita content title ID, whose licenses were decrypted incorrectly. This has been fixed. These items are noted in ux0:/rif-ripper/ps3-pcs.txt and if you find any in ux0:/rif-ripper/rif, they can be deleted.
  • Reworded some console log messages.
  • Thanks to JohnSmith and RadicalR for providing information on these problems.

Version 1.1.0

  • License decryption failures will skip instead of halt the backup process.
  • Record errors and skipped PS3 items to file when the backup process is finished.
  • Show a message in the console when the backup process is finished.
