MP3's and PSP's

[Mr Ektion]

I just got a new Sony Playstation Portable and I wanna listen to mp3's on it while heading downtown. I don't know the first thing about finding the correct filetype, nor do i know how to hack the PSP to make it work.

I'd also like to figure out how to play movies off of it to utilize the full ability of this crazy toy. Any pointers on how i can listen to music off of it?

Plug your psp into your computer. turn on your psp, hit usb connection. It will make your psp appear as a hard drive on you computer, go to directory "psp" click that, then into music or mp3 (can't remeber which one it is) drop your mp3's in.

As for the video things, you need a convertor (PSP 9 is a free one that works well) then convert them. The directory you have to make yourself, outside of the psp directory.(it's a wierd directory name you have to create, it's in your manual) drop them in there and bam

make sure you have the cable first ....
it doens't come with it.

Hmm, yeah. I gave that a shot a night or two ago. I threw in 8 mp3's via USB and when i tested it out the memory stick appeared empty through the PSP dashboard. It's almost like it doesn't recognize the mp3 format.

I wish my PSP got along with me =(

i followed the instructions and it worked for me lol.

I thought they invented plug-in play support for a reason.

[Mr Ektion]

aiight, i formatted my memory stick thing, and it made folders that weren't there before. the psp fucking rocks! now i only wish they had memory cards larger than 256 megs

i think they have 1 gig cards outs.

[Mr Ektion]

mmmm... 1 gig.

400- 450??

[Mr Ektion]

no kidding eh? i wanna buy a bigger memory card, but i lost my fucking psp ear bud thing. it has a remote control on it, so it's not like i can just replace it with another ear bud piece. fawwwwwkkkkkkk.

looks like i won't need a memory card anytime soon.
