Part 2. How to rip DVD and convert MOV/AVI/WMV/ASF/Divx/Xvid/MPEG/RM to PSP 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 Cucusoft DVD/Video to PSP Suite, it can rip protected DVD movie and convert video to MP4 video.
1. Run this DVD/Video to PSP Suite (Download Here). If you want to rip DVD movie to PSP MP4 Video, press the first button to open "DVD to PSP Converter". Then click the "Open DVD" button to load your DVD files and click start to rip your DVD to MP4 video.
If you want to convert MOV/AVI/WMV/ASF/Divx/Xvid/MPEG/RM or limewire and YouTube video to PSP MP4 video. Press the second button to open "PSP Video Converter"
2. Click "Open file" to import your video files which you want to convert to PSP video.
3. Modify your output file settings. On "Audio/Video Output Settings" panel you can chose output format for you files such as H.264 Movie (.mp4), PSP - PSP MPEG-4 Movie (.mp4), MP3 Audio (.mp3).
4. Click "Output" button to chose where you want to put your converted PSP files.
5. Click "Convert" button to convert your video files to PSP format.
6. After conversion, there will be a Dialog window. You can choose "Open output folder to check the output file(s)" to go to the output folder or "launch PSP Video Manager to upload output file(s) to your PSP device" to go to the PSP Video Manager.
