PSP PVR Plz

Sony's first handheld console, the PSP, is finally out in the US and people are doing whatever they can to cram whatever media they have on it. First up, Zatz Not Funny has updated their TiVo To Go guide with a guide to put .tivo files on a PSP. Short version: strip the DRM, convert it to MPEG4 and stuff it on a memory stick.

Then we have the case of PSP Video 9, which bills itself as "a free PSP video conversion and management application." Sort of like iTunes for PSP media. The cool thing is that when you combine it with Videora (previously mentioned on PVRblog) you can subscribe to BitTorrent feeds and automatically download videos to your PSP. Obviously the first priority for this amazing amalgam of technology is PSPr0n.

I don't have a Windows system or a PSP to test PSP Video 9 with (for some reason Sony forgot to send PVRblog a pre-release PSP to review) but since it handles all the transcoding for you, I wouldn't be surprised if it could also handle TiVoToGo files. Has anyone tried this out?

This is "killer app" material for me.
The best games, MP3s and video. The PSP blows everybody away when I show them it. Hell, it blows me away every time I power it up.
Few gadgets get me like this thing does.

Further enhancing the coolness is the web potential. This thing could get us all email, IM and web browsing in the very near future.

The TTG aspect is the coolest. I have a new memory stick due to arrive tomorrow and I already have some content ready PSP 9 is great. Now if I could only find a freeware videoredo alternative...

LOL, I did some TIVO proselytizing the other day. It makes me laugh because you can see people thinking how great it would be, and how "worth it" it is, but there is "the wall". People just can't get it, till they get it.

Tried using psp video on tivotogo recordings, didn't work.

the psp 9 and videora combo works great for transfering avi and other media formats to the psp lol had to show my friends look you can take your vids on the go so now they want one lol

I got mine on the day it was released and every one wanted to see it lol

Been using Video 9 w/ TTG for about two weeks now. Has anyone else had the problem with the audio being out of sync with video after about 2 minutes? I was encoding at 15fps, which might have something to do with it. Haven't tried 29.97fps.

My quick fix right now is to stop the video and start it again, which re-calibrates the video/audio. Anyone have a better solution?

Tried PSP Video Express, http://www.pqdvd.com/psp/

It works with TiVo2Go files very well.

I totally agree with your assessment of hte PSP, it is by far the best portable gaming device on the market. Nintendo's is pale in comparison. Keep up the good work.
