You know a freeware product is good if the salesperson at the Sony
Store recommends you go home and download it, instead of buying
Sony's commercial version. That's how I first found out about PSP
Video 9, an alternative to Sony's own video file conversion
utility. Sony sells their software $30 to hapless PC users who want
to watch their own videos on the Playstation Portable's
high-quality widescreen LCD display.
In the intervening months, PSP Video 9 went from an independently
developed conversion tool to being acquired by Red Kawa, makers of
the Videora video search and conversion tools. PSP Video 9 had
always used some of Videora's conversion technology, but with the
acquisition, PSP Video 9 went from a one-trick pony to a
full-fledged conversion tool capable of rendering videos in various
formats. Its current format lineup supports devices as diverse as
the Xbox 360, the Nintendo Wii or DS, Apple's iPod, iPhone, and
Apple TV, and Sony's other console, the PS3.
True to its word, though, PSP Video 9 is still the easiest tool to
use to convert video files to your PSP. Not only does it
automatically choose the best conversion method for your file
(thanks to its Web-based VideoWizard feature), but it also creates
a thumbnail screenshot, renames the file to the PSP's oddball
naming conventions, and puts it right onto your Memory Stick for
you. It also keeps a database of video files you've converted, so
you can easily choose one or more of your previously-converted
files and move them to the Memory Stick for repeat viewing. Viva la
portable video!
