The PlayStation Portable (PSP) was Sony's handheld gaming console with built-in video playback capability, supporting H.264 and MPEG-4 Part 2 video in MP4 containers at specific resolutions. Converting 3G2 to PSP-compatible video transforms old CDMA phone recordings into files that play on the PSP's 480x272 widescreen display. While the PSP is now a retro device, a dedicated community continues to use it for portable media playback.
PSP video playback is notably strict about encoding parameters. The device only supports specific H.264 profiles, bitrate limits, and container configurations. Generic MP4 files often fail to play on PSP even when they use H.264, because the profile level or bitrate exceeds the hardware decoder's capabilities.
PSP owners who want a portable media player for old phone recordings need files that comply with the device's strict encoding requirements. The PSP supports H.264 Baseline Profile Level 1.3 for standard video and Main Profile Level 3.0 for firmware 3.30+ — with a maximum bitrate of 768 kbps for standard and 2 Mbps for the newer firmware.
The PSP's 480x272 display is well-suited for 3G2 content, which was originally recorded at 176x144 or 352x288. The modest resolution match means the video does not need significant upscaling, and the PSP's hardware decoder handles these small files efficiently with excellent battery life.
FFmpeg re-encodes to H.264 Baseline Profile Level 1.3 (for maximum PSP firmware compatibility) or Main Profile Level 3.0 (for firmware 3.30+). Resolution is set to 320x240 or 480x272. Audio is transcoded to AAC-LC at 128 kbps stereo with a 48 kHz sample rate. The MP4 container must have specific atom ordering for PSP recognition. Maximum video bitrate is 768 kbps for Baseline Profile mode.
The PSP's 480x272 display has limited resolution, so 3G2 source material at 176x144 or 352x288 is within its native range. The H.264 encoding at 384-768 kbps produces clean results for this content on the PSP's small screen. Audio quality at 128 kbps AAC is excellent for the built-in speakers. The viewing experience is actually quite good since the small screen masks the low source resolution.

Converting 3G2 to PSP video serves the retro gaming and portable media community. The PSP's screen size is well-matched to 3G2's low resolution, making it a surprisingly good portable viewer for old phone recordings.
