2. Accessories for your PSP?
3. Tips on how to save battery?
4. Where to get free games, software, wallpapers and etc.

I tried converting a video for a friend (Final fantasy dvd) but the file was to large, it was almost 800MB after conversion. Naa kay way para ma lessen ni siya?

The length of the video was around 1:40 mins.

[darkwing]

did you use pspvideo9? usually man gud tag 150mb man ang 40 mins na tv show, so 1 hour 40 min/40 = 375mb ra dapat hinuon na gyud pixels ani pero ok ra man hehe

[firebasefury]

ok i'll try that one.

Bai naa ka nahibawhan nga store that sells cheap UMDs?

[darkwing]

sa gawas cheap ra compared sa ato, ambot nganong mahal sa ato grrrrr...

[firebasefury]

I've tried out what you suggested with my video conversion and it worked

To maximize my storage I bought a 2GB memory stick duo yesterday.

You are right UMD sa gawas is a bitt cheap than ours here in the Cebu and I also I dont under stand why grrr....

[firebasefury]

Bai have you tried playing different video file formats excep for MP4?

[firebasefury]

Bai another question diay, unsa-on pag determine if US or JAPAN imo PSP?

[darkwing]

where did you buy a 2GB duo pro? MP4 ra gyud na siya, pero kung v2.0 and above imo PSP, pwede katon MP4-AVC version mas nindot quality, tan-awa imong model number sa kilid, also ang buttons niya bali, bali ang X ang select, sa US version X is cancel

[firebasefury]

I bought it at MAZE in ayala during pag sale. Ang ako napalit is Sony Memory stick pro duo high speed.

Mao ba bali diay ang X sa US version. So meaning kani naa nako is JAPAN diay ni kay ang X nako is select man.

Unsa man jud diay difference ana niya sa US besides sa regional settings?

[darkwing]

pila man ang 2GB?? wala man cguro except dili ka makaplay ug Region 1 UMD movies... Region 2 ra...

[firebasefury]

it was worth 8800. It was supposed to be 11K something last tueday. during the sale their 1GB card was dropped to 5.6 or 5.7K from 6.5K. But I think some people are trying find ways to play UMD movies using other tools.

Bai have you tried playing downloaded games from the internet (UMD rip games)?
