[Release] PSP Converter v1.05 Beta Released

Forum user KG6ZVP has updated his video converter to version 1.05, this video convert is slightly different to the others out there. It does everything for you it automates video conversion from any source to PSP format. It calculates a PSP compatible resolution (like: 480-x272-) based on input aspect ratio and determines the best bitrate for the encode. Its all run for a one off batch file.

Its in beta status as there is a small hitch, KG6ZVP is after some help in order to get a GUI working for the application. If you can help out with a GUI why not PM KG6ZVP over in the release thread.

Note from KG6ZVP

UPDATE: Here is the old version of Prerequisites.zip (needed for the program to function):
Prerequisites.zip

NOTE: This version of the prerequisites still applies to 1.05-beta, but will not apply to 1.05 full (not yet released, I’m still working out the kinks.)

Also, here is a tutorial which should help users with the use of this program:

    Well,this does look kewl,but I’ll wait for a GUI for now,but good job though!

  • jeetest

    nice

    I’d really rather use something that wasnt completely automated. it seems kinda stupid cause that would make it harder to find out where something went wrong if it did cause you didnt do anything manually.

    • KG6ZVP

      The whole idea of the program is to automate tasks for people who don’t have time to do them manually. To get an encode of this quality and file size, you would have to do these steps:

      >Determine format of input
      >Determine framerate of input
      >Determine Width and Height of input
      >Determine Display Aspect Ratio
      >Write an AVS script that amplifies the audio to the appropriate volume and resizes the video to a compatible resolution. It also must brighten the video enough for you to see more detail when you are viewing video on your PSP somewhere with lots of ambient light. And, it must change the framerate to something PSP compatible that is near to the input framerate
      >Calculate bitrate based on framerate and video resolution for best compression while maintaining quality
      >Write an appropriate command line for a two pass video conversion
      >Write an appropriate command line for a high quality, small file size audio encode
      >Write an appropriate command line for muxing
      >Write an appropriate command line for thumbnail generation

        wow, that looks frustrating, especially since i don’t know wtf you’re talking about.
        i’m glad it’s automated :)

  • darktech

    looks nice. i wonder if it supports uncommon formats, like swf and flv…

    • KG6ZVP

      It supports any format/codec as input that can be played in Media Player Classic on your computer. In other words, you can add support for more formats by installing different codecs (XVID, X264, FLV1, FMP4, etc.) and different ‘splitters’ (like Haali media splitter for MKV and MP4, etc.)

      Does that answer your question?

      KG6ZVP

      • darktech

        yes, it does.
        VERY thoroughly, i might add.

  • Doritoes

    Any Video converter 3.01 covers several formats, including swf and flv.

    • darktech

      nice!
      only question: is it free, or do i have to pay registration?

      • abcguy10

        As far as I can see,this one is free,but idk bout “Any Video Converter”.

      • http://pspslimhacks.com/ PSPFan

        100% Free ;)

      • KG6ZVP

        My program (PSP Converter 1.05) is free.

      • darktech

        oh, i know this program is free, because i’ve been using it for a week now, and i’m satisfied with the results ;)
        i was asking if that other thing is free, but now that i look at it, the video converter Doritoes described could give my computer a virus.
        oh, and keep up the good work!
        if i knew how to code, i would help with the GUI…

  • KG6ZVP

    I’ve made a short series of pictures that show use of the software from beginning to end. Follow these steps and you won’t have any problems:

  • golastic

    hey man,how do u go about this app cuz i can’t figure how to go about it .THX

    • KG6ZVP

      Install Prerequisites.zip (I’ve posted a link in the forum) and download the tutorial (also in the forum). If you are still having problems, e-mail me :) I’m happy to help anytime.

  • golastic

    thx man,it really work like magic.

    • KG6ZVP

      I’m glad it’s working for you? If you run into any problems on conversion of a DVD, etc. Please feel free to pm me or e-mail me regarding technical difficulties.

  • golastic

    Great work done but will be happy if it a single executable file.What do u think?

    • KG6ZVP

      I’m not sure of exactly what you mean. Please send me an e-mail elaborating on your thoughts.
      My e-mail is KG6ZVP_at_gmail.com

  • golastic

    what i mean is like any other software which is a single executable program eg. (K-lite codec pack).That is how i want yours to be like.Rather than installing Prerequisites.zip before open the converter is at times very confusing.At first i didn’t know how to go about it ,that’s why i sent that comment for u to show me.
    All the same,it a very nice app.It convert almost every movie file i play on my pc.Keep it up and looking for more update and will be your #1 fan.

    • KG6ZVP

      Which files did it fail to convert? I would appreciate the feedback. Tell me as much as you can about the file.

  • darktech

    very nice. better than xvid4psp if not equal to.
