i_suck, thanks for your praise.
I like to try different video and audio software and share my exp with all friends coming to this forum.
I will continue.... :)
I tried this out and for some reason when I opened up the converted video file and if played the video in five minutes, but had the audio play the full duration of the movie. Any advice is greatly apprieciated.
EDIT: Tried fiddling around and then converted it again and it worked. Thanks alot for the guide. It was most helpful.
sidthehat, the trial version can only convert 5-min video or audio files. It is completely free if you convertd music video, less than 5-min usually. ;)
ok so i did everything converted the files to mp4. but when i go to tools and select psp manager it says my psp has not been connected. when i click on the drive that it is in. it says that it isnt a PSP. so i just simply copied and paste the files that were converted over to the files you indicated to transfer too. and while it is on my memory stick. cuz i can play them using quicktime. the psp wont recognize them. so i cant watch them. does it HAVE to be transferred using the PSP MANAGER. help would be appreciated. -ArtemusXi
ArtemusXi, you can transfer PSP mp4 video file to your Sony PSP using PSP Video Manager or manual operation.
1. Transfer by PSP Video Manager.
It is easy to use. Just click 'Tools -> PSP Video Manager'.
2. Transfer manually.
Connect your PSP with PC, and copy those two files into "H:\MP_ROOT\100MNV01" (where "H" is the drive letter of your PSP).
Re-name your files in PSP. You must re-name them to "M4Vxxxxx.MP4". "M" and "V" should be capital. There would be five random numbers followed "M4V". The numbers must be same for the two files. This is quite important, or your file can not be played on PSP.
Actually, you can just export files directly into PSP if you set "H:\MP_ROOT\100MNV01" as "Destination" folder. Of course you must keep PSP connecting with PC during the conversion in this way. After the conversion is done, click "Open" button so that you can visit PSP directly and rename your output files.
tried this program last night...used a ripped dvd, ran the program, output for psp, when the program was finished, the movie was not at the beginning, but started sometime after....is this because it was the trial version...and if not how do i fix it..thankyou
@harsaphes
I think your ripped DVD movie is not at the beginning. Try converting your original DVD's VOB files to PSP with the video converter. If you are not satisfied with it, rip original DVD to PSP directly following the "DVD Ripper" guide I collected.
Hey all, I have a question about the Xillsoft software. I put a DVD on my computer using a DVD Decoder, and the files play fine on my computer when I play them. Then I converted them to iPod format to put on to my iPod, but when I play it on my comp AND on the iPod in the format the audio is in Spanish! There are 3 different audio selections under the audio portion of the software, and it says 1. Stereo 2. Mono 3. 5.1. One of them has the audio commentary, and the other two are the spanish audio. Is there any way to get the English audio? Or do I need to learn Espanol?
i have alot of .mp4 files some i would like to convert to dvd (vob) as back ups (child startin to crawl) i did download some software AVI pro from cucusoft but when i start to convert no audio could be found? just pic...
I have successfully converted dvds to psp format and they work perfectly well on psp and can be played on pc. I have however come accross p[roblems trying to play the converted dvd on my laptop - it wont recognise the dvd in Nero or quicktime - can anyone help please?
To play DVD movie, you need to make sure you have installed PowerDVD or Windows Media Player.
To play PSP mp4 files you converted, you should install Quicktime Player or iTunes.
Hi there I have already got my movie I want on my Sony Ericsoon W8001 in MPEG 4 format it was just 2 large 2 play on the phone I have resized using the above software but the sound goes on and off have I done something wrong? or is this becuase its a free version?
I have saved the MPEG 4 vid to my memory card in the phone
Does the sound works well when you play the mpeg4 video on your PC? If you like, upload one original file to somewhere, tell me the link, I will download the file and have a test. :)
