So you got yourself a nice little piece of equipment but your not quite sure how to get the full benefit by putting videos on it.
With this great little gadget sold by Sony it really is an amazing toy. There's really not much that you can't do with it.
However there is one major problem that allot of people seem to be running into and that's learning how to put videos on their little wonder machine the PSP so that they can watch movies.
It really isn't that difficult to do, so after your done reading thru this article you should know how to put videos on your toy and just like with anything else it's not easy until you know how to do it.
It's a darn shame that the Sony does not come included with a guide to put music videos or movies on your PSP, but the information is out there if you know where to look. Here is one way to do it that I have found online.
The first thing you make sure of is that you have enough free memory to do it. If you don't you can always go to your favorite electronics store and get a bigger memory card, it's a must.
The second most important must have is a computer and that's only obvious (just checking) so you can connect your PSP to your computer with a USB cord and make sure your connected to the internet aswell. So now that you have gotten all that situated, your ready to go.
First: The first thing you need to do is connect your SonyPSP to your computer, but make sure that the it is off first. The reason for this is just to make sure your computer reads and recognizes that you have device connected. After your connected then turn it on.
Second: Once your all connected, go to the settings menu on your PSP and hit the X button once and that should automatically link it directly to your PC. If not keep repeating step number one and two until it woks. Then on your PC go to the My Computer tab hit that once, then that menu should appear and you will be able to notice that an extra volume button is available.
Third: Open your memory card and then open the folder called PSP. With this open you need to create another folder inside that one, this one called 'MP_ROOT' and then another one called '100mnv01'
Fourth: To save your videos or movies that you want to keep save them in the folder called '100mnv01' and then you are ready to watch! The movies can be started by clicking on the saved image inside the memory card. One thing you should remember is that the movies need to be in MP4 format (Google it), and if you want to convert your existing DVDs etc to this format you may want to get some specialized software.
You should be all set and ready to go. Now you can go and download any video you want and watch it on your awesome toy.
