PSP Video is a preset targeting the Sony PlayStation Portable's hardware decoder, encoding H.264 Baseline Profile at 480x272 resolution (the PSP's native screen resolution) with AAC audio at 96 kbps. ASF files cannot play on the PSP, which only supports MP4 containers with specific H.264 and MPEG-4 profiles. This conversion creates PSP-compatible memory stick video files.

The PSP's dedicated hardware video decoder supports only H.264 Baseline/Main Profile at specific resolutions and bitrates. ASF files with WMV video are completely unsupported. While the PSP is a legacy device, it remains popular with retro gaming and homebrew communities. Converting ASF to PSP Video creates correctly formatted MP4 files that play through the PSP's XMB media player.

The preset encodes H.264 Baseline Profile Level 2.1 at 480x272 (the PSP's exact screen resolution) with a maximum bitrate of 768 kbps. Audio is AAC-LC at 96 kbps stereo with 48 kHz sample rate. The MP4 container must have specific atom ordering for PSP compatibility. Some PSP firmware versions require specific file naming conventions (e.g., M4Vxxxxx.MP4 in the MP_ROOT/100MNV01 directory).

H.264/AVC playback was added in firmware 3.30. Earlier firmware versions support only MPEG-4 SP. Most PSPs in use today have firmware 6.60+, which supports all H.264 profiles the preset uses.

Place MP4 files in the VIDEO directory on the memory stick root, or in MP_ROOT/100MNV01 with the naming convention M4Vxxxxx.MP4 for thumbnail support.

The PSP screen is exactly 480x272 pixels. Higher resolution files will be downscaled by the PSP, wasting bitrate. Some homebrew players support higher resolutions for output via component cable to a TV.

PS Vita has a different (and more capable) video decoder. The PSP preset works on Vita, but the Vita supports higher resolutions and more codecs natively.

The PSP supports MP4 files up to 2 GB on FAT32-formatted memory sticks. For longer videos, split the content into segments under 2 GB each.
