Hi all,

I have attempted to transfer a film using 2 recommended pieces of freeware. Its supposed to turn into MP4 files, which it does, but the begining of the file name is MAC******.mp4. When i transfer this to the PSP, it has taken up space yet it is nowhere to be seen. I have followed a guide religiously yet i cant get itto work.

All help appreciated,

Thanks in advance, Gaz.

Are you using PSPVideo9? That both encodes and transfers the file to the stick automatically, give that one a try.

you know it has to be in a specific folder (MP_ROOT/MV..blah) and that the filename has to be specific, too. MACsomething is not gonna work.

PSPVideo9 is crap, by the way. it has bad encoding, and the sound is sometimes off by a couple of seconds. I use 3GP converter, it's a lot easier to use, converting faster, and at better quality. just search for it on google.

highest quality, always (29.97fps/QB10 stereo/96kbps)

QVGA for 4:3 ratio movies, 368x208 for widescreen. I hope they will bring out a new version soon, featuring the full 480x272 ratio.
