Can anyone help me with how to download movies onto a PSP I have converted some Avi to MPEG4 but it still doesn’t show in movies on the psp menu, it shows on the memory stick. I have ver 2 on the psp
I followed these instruction what am I doing wrong?
Thanks Moggsy
Now hook up your PSP to your computer using a USB 2.0 cable and click the "USB Connectivity" option in the PSP's main menu. This will allow you to browse the Memory Stick Duo inserted into your PSP.
Run the program you have just installed to convert the file you originally saved on to your hard disk. These apps pretty much run you through the process but if you get stuck using Windows try Getting Started with PSP Video 9. According to this discussion thread the Mac version pretty much does everything for you.
There are just a couple of things you need to consider before you place the video file on the Memory Stick.
Unlike music and picture files, you can't put your video files in the "PSP" folder. Create a folder called "MP_ROOT" and inside that folder create another folder named "100MNV01." That is the folder to which you need to copy your converted video files.
Also, you need to be careful how your video files have been named. Programs like iPSP should properly name your video files automatically, but naming your MP4 files "My_Rocking_DVD.MP4" just won't work. These files have to be named like this: "M4V00000.MP4", you can change the numbers "00000" to fit your preference (like "M4V00027.MP4"), but the PSP is very picky about the file naming conventions.
That's it, you should be able to transfer an entire DVD movie onto your new Sony PSP. Good luck and happy viewing.
