Getting movies to fit PSP screen

[Maximum_Mayhem]

I want to get my movies to fit the PSP's 480x272 screen, but when I convert my DVD's VOB files to AC|VI and then to MP4, they come out as 360x240. What should I do to make the movies at a 480x272 screen size?

If your useing OSX , this program will convert your movies to work on the PSP. http://homepage.mac.com/major4/psp.html

Don't know if there is anything similar for windows...

I meant if there is a setting in AutoGK that alows me to make the resolution of the movie go to 480x272.

PSP doesn't support videos with 480x272 resolution off the memory stick. Sony capped the resolution you can use if playing a movie off a memory stick. Most likely to encourage people to buy UMDs. The most amount of pixels that can be used are 76,800, while 480,272 is 130,560.

You need to encode at a smaller resolution. 368,208 and 400,192 are nice for widescreen movies.

How is this done in AutoGK? I only see width options in advanced settings

AutoGK current encodes only as a Divx or Xvid AVI, the PSP needs specifically different header information. PSP video 9, 3GP Converter, and the Rapiz Encoder is three pieces of Freeware/Donationware that work very well. I wish someone would come up with a way of encoding with Xvid and translating to the PSP format. I read that 3GP might use Xvid but I doubt it I think it uses FFmpeg. 3 GP's Encodes are a tad cleared so I use that for all my Full screen encodes and Use PSP Video 9 for Widscreen at 368x208 Two Pass
