PSP Media Player

Alias420 | September 30, 2005

Thanx to PSP-Spot for being able to read chinese and finding this story:

A user, gaeko99, from a Chinese console forum, CNGBA has released PSP Media Player v0.0.5, a Media player for 1.50 firmware. Plays standard AVI (DIVX/XVID) on the PSP in fullscreen. (I’ve tested with a 464×352, 30fps XVID and it plays, although it’s pretty jumpy. It doesn’t seem to scale the image yet but image quality is perfect.

Also plays MP3, OGG, WMA.

Movies must be in /PSP/VIDEO
Music must be in /PSP/MUSIC

From main menu:
[SELECT] : File Open
[START] : Finish Program
[CIRCLE] : Action (Select movie/music)

While Playing:

[DPAD-LEFT]: Rewind
[DPAD-RIGHT]: Fast forward
[TRIANGLE] : Finish File Selector/Change CPU Clock(Playing Video)
[SQUARE] : Stop
[CROSS] : Pause

After selecting “File Open” the first option selects files in the VIDEO folder, the second option selects files in the MUSIC folder.

From the author:

QUOTE
This is version 0.0.5
Please don’t expect high performance.
Enjoy at your own risk.

Formats supported (or intended to possibly be added) include .MOV (Quicktime), .SWF (Shockwave Flash), and others. (Based on mplayer codec?)

You can grab the file in our PSP Downloads section or by clicking here

Divx works fine. Tested with vids from a.b.w.ppc.m because of similar screen size. Up the clock to 333 for better video (triangle).

Also - not that I can read Chinese, but I did experiment a bit and you can change screen format by pressing “Start” while the video is playing.

I have found this to be a great application. Will have to follow this. Finally something besides those crappy MP4 and that AVC you have to update for. =)

I have noticed it plays wmv’s a little better than xvid avi. I don’t have a divx encoder at work installed so I don’t know. Some videos jump and some don’t. I think the main cause is audio. Will test a file with no audio in a moment. Can’t wait for another version!

SOURCE would be excellent also! =)

Comment by NegroISO
2005-09-30 20:18:30

I think the wierd text says something reguarding “please wait” or “Buffering”

I get that when the kbps is to high or the video can’t be displayed. Usually i just lower the resolution or bitrate to 3-400kbps and it works. my porno plays good. hopefully the newer versions will help us out. Great app still though.

Have a version 1.0 PSP. Followed instructions and placed PMP & PMP% under PSP\GAME folder. Placed a DIVX avi under PSP\Video folder. Upon launching Media Player, receive the following error:
“The game could not be started. (80020130)”
Have tried different files (divx, xvid with differing res and fr) to no avail. Have also deleted player files and re-added them. Also, the EBOOT.PSP for the PMP folder shows up as corrupted data but the PMP%\eboot.psp appears fine just errors out with above.
Any ideas?

Yea this is the one true app that WILL make people down grade. I hate people saying “but 2.0’s got AVC MP4″ FUCK MP4, File size is an issue and I’ve got a 1GB Memory Stick”

Yea I’ve found some movies work and some don’t, sometimes I get a picture and sounds, sometimes I get just sound. Depending on the clip.
I reckon its something to do with the Divx Encode version. some may be encoded with Divx6 which may not be supported?! who knows

Anyway Great app, Can we expect an update anytime soon?
And do you have a website?

@30, you need to use the portable profile settings under the encoder option to make DIVX or XVID play back well. Lower bitrate work better as less to process, advance option should be turned off as they can slow down the play. Also always use resolutions that are divisable by 8 as that is the size of a macroblock, something every important to the encoder.

This app looks very promissing. Assuming this is just C/C++ code they there is still at least 40% maybe more performence to be gotten.

When this can play & resize on the file movies that are 640×386 then this will be a killer app, most stuff from the web will then just play without re-encoding with is important.

gaeko99 is Korean programmer.

So if you want to read readme.txt, you may set language to Korean when you read it.

(Maybe this article shoud be updated)

Some major note from readme.txt:

History:

0.0.5

You can use simple background image. Image shoud be 480*272 jpeg format.

If you change clock, it will be displayed for 2 seconds on the screen.

Some minor upgrade to codec.

Frame skip supported.

0.0.4

Font loading changed to file.
Font from HanView (another korean psp program).

If movie/music folder is empty, simple warning is displayed

0.0.3

Programm starts with clock speed 266mhz.
Clock is changed to 333mhz when you press triangle button.
You can get back to 266mhz by pressing triangle button again.

Ogg support.

Sleep mode had some bugs. now fixed.

Known problem

Program somtimes goes down. usually at malloc & free in gcc

For your information

It uses pure software codec.

So too high bitrate movie will not be played.

Usually 320*240 movie for pdas will work

If you want to encode 480*272 full screen movie, set bitrate to 150.

and Disclaimer….

Yea, movies with to high bitrate don’t play, the others all worked!
Superp quality!
BTW: R,L buttons -> Jump 5 min forward, backward!

Great App!
Wishlist:
1.) English version
2.) Rescaling (always fullscreen)
3.) Automatic 16:9 recognition -> Cut black boarders, as psp has 16:9

This guy needs to get all the current WMP7 8 and 9 ASF WMV video codecs in his next release. I got porn that has like 14 minuts of play time in 18mb files at 320×240 at 15 frames a second.

I renecoded some of these with “River Past Video Cleaner” go to pirate bay peoples download the latest version. Anyways I used it to rencode these asf/wmv files to the latest Divx 6 version in normal compress keep frame rate and size. You can rencode to mp3 for the audio so you have to stick with pcm. I selected 44.1 khz stereo. This 18mb file turned into a 144mb after it was renecoded. I then took this converted file into Virtual Dub and rencoded the PCM to a mono mp3 using the lameenc.dll and I used a direct stream conversion of the video. Check it out man!!

Now that file size is 32 megs and fucking beattiful. Now if this media player had the ASF WMV file support- it sortta plays the audio ok on unconverted ASf files but the picture is not working. Well i mean if it had this support i could hold like 3 or more hours of film on a little 256 msduo! Simply awsome
