My converted Tivo videos look fine on my 5g ipod screen, but look pixilated when I try to watch them on a TV – via the ipod a/v output. I tried changing the mpeg4 resolution to 640 x 480. Any ideas?

I’m confused. The picture is much bigger post conversion (about 4x bigger) but the file size is the exact same…how can that be?

I can not get this to work. I have 2.3a and get a “Invalid advise flag” Heard of it?

There used to be software to playback video in the native PSP res. Looks like the source link is dead now though…

Oh yeah, the 320×240 works fine… and the file shows up in the list (at 480×272) but when it starts to play it, it kicks it out.

Wasn’t there some sort of restriction on the resolution of video files played off of a memory stick?

Matt: Have you tried the regular conversion (to 320×240) and does it work? The PSP is very touchy about file naming conventions. I ebay-ed mine, so I can’t do any direct testing at the moment.

I tried this and encoded at 420×272 (psp), copied the file over to my psp, and my psp is unable to play the file… any idea? The file plays fine on my pc, and has the appropriate resolution.

Thanks,

Matt

William: I haven’t tried changing the audio encoding, though it’s worth looking at! FYI there is supposedly aa AAC audio plugin for TCPMP you may want to check out.

saboola: I haven’t experienced those problems.
