EyeTV 1.8 adds the ability to export footage to the PSP, in the correct resolution and format, be it 4:3 or widescreen. If you have letterboxed footage in EyeTV, you can use the Aspect Ratio controls to select widescreen, and the exported footage will be masked appropriately.
EyeTV Export to PSP
1) Highlight the recording you wish to export in the EyeTV Programs Window.
2) Select File menu > Export
3) Choose the "for PSP" export format
4) Save the file. The new file name, something similar to M4V50970.MP4, is suitable for the PSP. Note - the numbers between "M4V" and the .MP4 extension need to be unique - another file on your Memory Stick can't have the same name.
5) Locate the exported .MP4 file, and the file with the same name, but a .THM extension. That's a thumbnail file that will show up on the PSP.
6) Connect your PSP to your Mac via a suitable USB cable.
7) Turn the PSP on, and use the directional buttons to move to the far left in the interface, which is the Settings section. Then, move up or down, until you see "USB Connection" option, and press the X button.
8) You PSP will connect to your Mac, and your Memory Stick will be mounted on the Desktop, most likely with the name of "Untitled"
9) In the main level of your Memory Stick, look for a folder named "MP_ROOT". If it does not exist, create it.
10) In the MP_ROOT folder, there should be a folder named "100MNV01". It is does not exist, create it.
11) Place your exported .MP4 and its .THM file into the "100MNV01" folder.
12) If you've erased any files from your Memory Stick, make sure to empty the trash to clear that space.
13) Unmount the Memory Stick from the Desktop, perhaps by highlighting it, and then using File menu > Eject "Untitled"
14) On the PSP, press the O key to disconnect from the USB bus.
15) Use the directional buttons to move to the Video section, and then select your Memory Stick.
16) Your movie(s) will be listed - choose a thumbnail, and use the X button to start playback.
You can fit almost 3 hours of footage on a 1GB Memory Stick Pro Duo. How is this working for other PSP users?
