Hi all

Does anyone use a psp to watch film on. Ive been using one since my ipod died. I have a 4gb memory stick and using mostly ffmpegx can convert dvd's into mp4's to watch at work in my lorry (on my break!). That's great but I can only convert in osx, I have over 300 films to convert so for the past month I've been encamped in osx.

Please bearing in mind I run a ppc. On linux I have d/l and compiled pspvc but it fails to work. (well it opens but fail to run) I have tried ffmpeg and can convert dvd's to M4V00001.MP4 files that run fine in vlc but fail in the psp.

After ripping the dvd with dvdrip and entering the movie directory the command i run is:

If the movies are 16:9 (wide screen) format I run:

cat *.vob > movie.vob | ffmpeg -y -i movie.vob -vcodec mpeg4 -r 29.97 -b 300k -s 368x208 -acodec aac -ac 2 -ar 24000hz -ab 64kb/s M4V00001.mp4

If the movies are 4:3 format I run:

cat *.vob > movie.vob | ffmpeg -y -i movie.vob -vcodec mpeg4 -r 29.97 -b 300k -s 320x240 -acodec aac -ac 2 -ar 24000hz -ab 64kb/s M4V00001.mp4

If I take the file converted in linux (M4V00001.MP4) and drop it into ffmpegx in mac osx it shows the audio bit rate as 48000hz. If I then just change the bitrate to 24000hz it works???

If anyone can see what I've done wrong I would be very chuffed.

Thanks.

P.S. I'm a cl noob and always will be so verbose is good.
