Making Google Videos Work on the PSP
PSPVault has a great article on making the videos from Google's new video download service work on the PSP:
Some of you may have noticed that over on video.google.com there's an
option to save videos (in mp4 format) for playback on the PSP. Some
folks are having problems getting them to playback on their PSPs and
here's why; in the directions google has for putting the videos on your
PSP, they fail to mention what they're encoded at. Google has encoded
their PSP videos in the AVC format, meaning that if you put them in the
old M4V folder they
will not work.
Read on....You have to rename them to the AVC naming format.
Then they will play.
In other words:
1) Go to video.google.com
2) Pick a video you want to download
3) On the sidebar, pick the "Sony PSP" option for download.
4) Pick a location on your PC for the file
5) Connect your PSP in USB mode
6) Navigate (or create) to the XXXANVXX folder (Where X is whatever number you want) in MP_ROOT
7) Copy the video you downloaded to the XXXANVXX folder
8) Rename the file you just copied to MAQXXXXX.mp4 (Again X are random numbers of your choice)
9) Disconnect the PSP
10) Enjoy!
