How Do I Put Videos on My PSP

How Do I Put Videos on My PSP
Don't get daunted by the process of putting videos on your PSP – it is much easier than most of you might imagine. Here are the steps you must follow:
1. Look for a USB cable that is compatible with both your PSP (PlayStation Portable) and your computer.
2. Link this USB cable to your PSP and to your computer in the slots allotted for the ends of your USB cable.
3. This allows you to use the "My Computer" settings of your computer to create new folders. You will find you can navigate from the computer to your Memory Card now.
4. Search for the "File" command then onwards to the "New" command. Then head on to "Folder". You will find a new folder in your Memory Stick which you must now label "PSP" (but remember to remove the quotation marks when labeling your folder.)
5. Open up your "PSP" folder so you can make a brand new folder named "MP_ROOT". Remember, the quotation marks are not to be included when you label this folder – they are being used here only to emphasize the name of your folder.
6. Within the "MP_ROOT" folder, you can now make another folder named "100mnvo1." You may now copy all your movies within the "100mnv01" folder.
7. One last thing – every video or movie file you will be using has to be already formatted in the MP4 file format. If you use another file format, your PSP cannot recognize the file and you will not be able to play that title.
Now that you know all that, where can you get free movies or videos as PSP downloads? The truth of the matter is that no website will allow you to get such downloads absolutely free. Majority of the sites will either charge you per download or for a flat one-time subscription free like the one HERE. If not, you may be asked for a monthly subscription fee instead.
Are such sites legal to use? It depends on how the sites operate. If the sites procured their material legally and are paying royalties to the artists and the video production or motion picture production company that owns the titles, then yes, such sites are operating legally. Otherwise, if they don't pay royalties then you are just patronizing pirates and helping them make money unethically off the talents of the real owners.
By the way, you may be wondering why the background color of your PSP seems to change every month. The answer to that is, that is a built-in setting of your PSP. There is no known way to alter your PSP background color at this point in time, unless you alter the month.
If you want to play certain movies from a different geographical location than that used by your PSP, you may encounter problems. For instance, if you play movies from Japan on a PSP geared for North American users that will not be possible because movies tend to be region-coded. In this respect, your movies act somewhat like DVDs, meaning they can only be played on certain geographical-location-based players.
