By Anthony Pace
How to put video on PSP is not difficult. Here are 5 simple steps to master and soon your buddies will be calling asking you how to put video on PSP for them.
First, you will need the following items:
- A DVD player on your computer (having 5-10 gb free space on your hard drive)
- A USB cable connecting your PSP to your PC
- A 512Mb Pro Duo memory stick (The PSP's default 32Mb memory card is way too small for the huge MP4 format files that are needed for video)
- A DVD Ripper like "ImTOO DVD Ripper" which "rips" or pulls the movie from the DVD onto your computer
- A PSP video converter like "ImTOO PSP Video Converter" which will allow you to convert or "rip" your videos to MP4 format
Second, put in one your favorite DVDs. Next, open your DVD Ripper and choose that named video since you want to put it on you PSP. Click the "Extract" or "rip" and save the file to a specified location.
Third, if you have video files on your computer currently then you simply hit "add" from your DVD ripper and save the file to a specified location.
Fourth, choose the video file that you saved to your computer. Click the "Extract and Encode" button from your PSP video converter and save that file.
Now the files you have on your PC are in the correct MP4 format and need to be moved over to the PSP.
Fifth, how to put video on PSP? You need to add a new folder on your Memory Stick named, "MP_ROOT" (without the quotes). Under the "MP_ROOT" folder add a sub-folder named "100MNV01". This is where you copy your MP4 videos and their accompanying thumbnail files (*.THM).
That's all there is in learning how to put video on PSP. Now it's time to enjoy your favorite video with some popcorn and a soda.
