Requirements

PS5 with a homebrew environment (e.g. via BD-JB or Y2JB)
ShadowMountPlus installed
A payload loader such as Payload Manager
elfldr running on port 9021 or 9020 (for SM Start button and Autostart)

Build

export PS5_PAYLOAD_SDK=/path/to/ps5-payload-sdk
make

Output: SMPlusGui_1.0.0.elf

Usage

Load SMPlusGui_1.0.0.elf via your payload loader
Open http://<PS5-IP>:7070 in any browser
Configure ShadowMountPlus settings and press Save
Use the Autostart panel to automatically launch SM on GUI startup
Use the Config panel to manage configuration backups

Autostart

The Autostart panel lets you configure automatic SM startup:

Auto-Start toggle — enable/disable automatic launch on GUI start
Preferred ELF — select or type the path to your SM ELF (uses ELF picker by default)
Additional scan directories — extra directories scanned for SM ELFs in addition to the defaults
Always restart SM — when off (default), SM is only launched if not already running; when on, always restarts
Icon position — toggle whether the home screen icon moves to front on every launch

Default scan locations: /data/pldmgr/payloads/*/, /data/shadowmount/, /mnt/usb0-7/

App preferences (autostart, icon settings) are stored in /data/SMPlusGui/prefs.ini.

Backup System

Backups are stored in /data/SMPlusGui/backups/ on the PS5.
USB backups go to <USB>/SMPlusGui/ on the connected drive.

Per-backup operations (copy/move/restore/download) are available for both internal and USB backups.
Bulk operations (copy all, move all, download all, delete all) are available in the section footer.
