How To Put Video On PSP - 4 Easy Steps

How To Put Video On PSP

Sony has made this a little tricky to do, but with the steps I'm about to outline below, you'll be up and running in no time with video on your PSP.

PSP USB Cable

Step One:

Get a large memory card. Video, by its nature, takes up a lot of memory so you want a half gig ( 512mb ) card as a bare minimum. You can pick these up for 20 to 30 dollars online. You'll also need a USB cable for your Sony PSP.

Step Two:

You need a PC connected to the internet. Ideally you want something high speed like a broadband connection otherwise downloading videos to put on your psp is going to take a long time.

Step Three:

Ensure your PSP is switched off. Connect your USB cable to the Sony PSP and to your PC at the other end. At this point you can switch on the PSP. On the PSP access screen select Settings then USB connection. Select 'X' to boot the PSP on the PC. You will at this point see it on your desktop as 'untitled'.

If you look inside you should see a folder which is called 'PSP'. Under this there will be a number of subfolders such as 'Games' and 'Music'. Add a new folder here ( at the same level as PSP ) and call it 'MP_ROOT'. Once you have added this folder, create a sub-folder and call it '100MNV01'. This is the location that your MP4 video files will be saved. This is how to put video on PSP.

Step Four:

This is where the fun begins. Here you can download MP4 videos as you require. Once downloaded onto your Sony PSP select the following options. 'Video' then 'memory stick'. To play any of these videos select the relevant thumbnail gallery pic and click on it. Now when somebody asks you how to put video on PSP you'll be able to refer them to this and earn some brownie points.
