video conversion for PSP 480x272 better codec

[terramir]

Hi I'm playing around again and well the setting in the configuration xml file for sony psp is not taking full advantage of the new firmware or the better compression of h264 I think
<Conversion name="Sony PSP" cmd="-y -i {SOURCE_FILE} -title {TITLE_SUBTITLE} -f psp -r 29.97 -s 368x208 -b 768 -ar 24000 -ab 32 {DEST_FILE}" targetExtension=".mp4" />

Now is there anyway to edit this that it does the smaller file sizes of the h264 codec as well as the increased resolution of the new firmware 3.30 or better regular and 3.03oe-x for the homebrew firmware.
I tried editing just the resolution settings and it just crashed on me

like this
<Conversion name="Wide PSP" cmd="-y -i {SOURCE_FILE} -title {TITLE_SUBTITLE} -f psp -r 29.97 -s 480x272 -b 768 -ar 24000 -ab 32 {DEST_FILE}" targetExtension=".mp4" /> (crashes dun work)
PSP9Video has a profile that is avc 480x272 768 kbps variable bitrate as far as I can tell min is 0 max is 4000 and keyframe interval is 250 that gets better quality while staying about the same file size 1hr= about 380 to 390 mb

Let me know

It's been a while since I've tested the PSP settings (i'm away from my home country and away from my pvr ) but editing the xml file SHOULD work. Try only changing the resolution settings and leaving the profile name (Sony PSP) the same.

On a side note, even though Sony has enabled "fullscreen mode" for the PSP many of the third party conversion programs are having difficulty getting it to work properly. For what it's worth, GBPVR uses the same conversion program used by PSPVideo 9 to create PSP compatible videos. However, it is conceivable that the versions may differ since GBPVR hasn't been updated since February, prior to the 3.4 (or was it 3.3?) firmware came out.

I no longer have my PSP, so I no longer test this, so the default settings havnt changed in a long time. I gave mine to my nephew.
