psp 3GP

[rayzero]

i've been trying to play movies on my psp for weeks and i can't not seem to get it right. i used the 3gp and follow the how to do list, but when it does work i get an THM file and a mp4 file. when i put one in at a time my psp doesn't see it and when i put both my psp doesn't see it. i think it has to do with this part of the guide that i do not understand. The correct folder name for videos is E:\MP_ROOT\100MNV01 (where E: is the drive letter of your PSP). Copy your .MP4 video(s) over (the .THM files that 3GP Converter creates are not necessary for playback), i see you guys all are watching movies and even changing the resolution can you guys please help me thank you

Make sure the name of the video files are correct.

M4V00001.MP4
or
M4V00002.MP4

for instance..

Thm is only needed for Thumbnails.

The correct folder name for videos is E:\MP_ROOT\100MNV01 (where E: is the drive letter of your PSP).

... when I've formatted the MS using the PSP, it actually creates a folder called 101MNV01, not 100MNV01. I read the threads here about the 100MNV01 folder, but, I too had problems.

I used the PSP to format the MS, had some Xvid/AC3 .avi files I transcoded using ffmpegX 0.0.9s for Mac OS X (I used the basic PSP settings, but upped the audio data rate) and then used altShiiva to create a .THM file matched to the movie. Copied the .MP4 and .THM files to the 101MNV01 folder... all play nicely (co-workers are envious) and the scaling/zooming from 320x240 isn't bad at all.

Your psp makes a folder for videos when you format the stick using the psp? Every time i format using the psp it never makes a folder for videos. how did you get it to do that?[/quote]

... just the standard means, I guess.

Settings:System Settings:Format Memory Stick™

It created all the necessary folders... I didn't really do anything, I believe, out of the ordinary.

My videos go in

Code: Select all

D:\MP_ROOT\100MNV01\

And video file names must be in UPPERCASE. e.g. M4V22589.MP4


If the PSP isn't showing the videos then I would recommend you change the 3GP program's encoding settings.
I encoded with a couple of different presets to start with and they didn't work.
