WebM uses VP8/VP9 video — codecs that Sony's PSP cannot decode. The PSP plays H.264 Baseline Profile at resolutions up to 480x272 with AAC-LC audio. The PSP Video preset converts WebM content for portable viewing on Sony's handheld gaming console.

The PSP has no VP8/VP9 decoder and cannot read WebM (Matroska-based) containers. Converting to the PSP preset produces H.264 MP4 that the PSP's XMB media player recognizes. The PSP maintains an active community for retro gaming and portable media.

WebM content from YouTube downloads and web recordings becomes viewable on PSP after conversion, creating a portable entertainment library.

FFmpeg decodes VP8/VP9 video and Opus/Vorbis audio from WebM, then transcodes to H.264 Baseline Profile Level 3.0 at 480x272 or 320x240 with AAC-LC at 48 kHz, 128 kbps. Bitrate targets 384-768 kbps. The output follows Sony's MP4 variant. Files must use PSP naming (MAQ00001.MP4) in the MP_ROOT/100MNV01/ directory.
