[Tessking]

As a crazy PSP fan, I have regarded PSP as a part of my life, while it gives me a fully satisfaction on music, video, especially on game. But A pity that some person owns a PSP but don’t know how to bring it into full play, so I collect some tips that I think it’s the main steps to go into the world of PSP.
1. How to watch Youtube video on PSP directly with wifi internet
2. How to rip DVD and convert video to PSP
3. How to download and convert youtube video to PSP for free
4. How to transfer video to PSP
5. How to downgrade PSP
6. How to download free limewire music and video to PSP

Part1. How to watch YouTube video on PSP directly with wifi internet?
Because the PSP's web browser only supports an older version of flash, YouTube uses flash 9. If you want to watch YouTube on PSP directly with the wifi, you must upgrade the newest firmware for your PSP and install a flash player on your PSP. A Japanese developer NekoMiMi has achieved just that with PSPTube. Here are the steps:
1. Download the PSPTube and open the zip file from here [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
2. Now before putting it in your PSP open the PSPTube.cfg file and press ctrl + F, and type in "DEV" press until you find Dev id="".
3. Ok now go to [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] create an account and insert the account in between the parentheses.
4. Extract the PSPTube from the 200over folder and put it in GAME352 folder (Set the Kernel to the 352) Now open it in the PSP and Choose an internet connection with the Circle button, it may say no videos, press circle and you'll be able to search.
Here is the control info:
X: Cancel; O: Accept; L/R: Last/Next Page; Start: Pause;
Select: Change aspect ratio (Original Size, Full screen)
Part2. How to rip DVD and convert video to PSP
PSP can play only MP4 video, DVD movie is MPEG-2 video and has CSS protected, so you have to rip the DVD movie to MP4, and then transfer it to PSP, If you stick with freeware, you can use DVD Shrink to rip the DVD to computer, ad then use PSP Video 9 to convert the ripped file to MP4 video. As for me, I’d prefer using Aimersoft PSP Converter Suite, it can rip protected DVD movie and convert video to MP4 video, more over, you can also trim or crop the DVD movie to enjoy the video on PSP with full screen, that’s really cool. What you have to do just put your DVDs on your DVD drive, and then click start button to begin the conversion, and then transfer the video to your PSP with its embedded PSP video manager, done, it couldn’t be easier. If you want to learn more about it, you can refer to its official site

Maybe a rumour

[Gallardo123]

wow! nice job! never would expect this kind of work from a GC n00b. . .

[oldgit9]

Nice guide. I would probably use it and link people to it. But I do have one little problem with it. You could have used the guides that are already on here for the downgrading section and not link people to another forum. Could you please change this. As it would be nice to "keep it in house" if you know what I mean.
