In order to watch movies on your Play Station Portable, you'll need to get a PSP movie converter. It may sound complex at first, but once you get used to the process, you'll be an old pro.
You don't have to be an expert on all the different kinds of files on your computer to be able to use a PSP movie converter. You do need to understand the basic concept though, just so you'll have a handle on where to begin.
The only kind of movie your PSP will play in its original form is the pre-recorded UMD disk released specifically for the PSP. Unfortunately, these disks are read only so you won't be able to record any movies on them. However, through the magic of technology, there are ways to get movies to your PSP.
The Main Reason You Need A PSP Movie Converter
At first glance, it seems plausible that you could just download movies from your computer to the PSP using the Memory Stick PRO Duo as the storage facility. That part is correct; however the PSP will not recognize the movie files on your computer as they are. This is where the PSP movie converter comes in. Simply put, these files must be converted into a format the PSP will recognize.
Sony Media Manager_ Costly But Works
Several months after the PSP debuted, Sony released Media Manager conversion software. Not as part of the free upgrades to the PSP offered on their website but as an accessory of sorts of the PSP which they offered for sale as a download for $19.95 or packaged for $29.95. Now, a lot of PSP owners have been miffed at Sony because of this. They fix it where the new gadget won't open the old files and then they want to sell us the key. Ingenious? Maybe. But not very nice.
However, since we do need a PSP movie converter in order to play movies other than the limited selection of UMD disks, we will need conversion software. Now, we don't have to purchase this software from Sony. Indeed, the web is filled with ads for conversion software, much of it for free but a good amount for sale too.
PSP Video 9_ The Free Alternative
We've learned time and time again that you get what you pay for and this is no exception. The good thing about free though, is if you don't like it, you haven't lost anything. However, in this instance, it's important to realize the difference between free and for sale. The free PSP movie converter software, especially PSP Video 9 looks like it will do a good job and has explicit instructions. There is a series of steps to perform though.
If you are not on a first name basis with your computer, you might want to make the investment to purchase the PSP movie converter you need. The converter software that you pay for generally requires just a click or two of the mouse and your movie files are on your PSP. Some of this software will even find those files for you on your computer so you don't even have to figure out what files are movie files.
Regardless of which PSP movie converter you use, you'll enjoy being able to watch your movies on the go.
