if the divx playback is true, hope they won't cap the bit rate to 500kbps anymore and allow for higher bit rates
I believe psp processor is capable of decoding higher bit rate since it has dedicated mpeg4 hardware decoder, although at the cost of battery life. but it will be great as a portable media center to watch downloaded movies on lcd tv

yup, it has successfully updated from 3.80 M33-2 to M33-4 via the network update

a great feature that saves all the hassle

I got that game as well, it doesn't make any differences, perhaps ur memory stick is using Fat32?

GTA is having the most impact on the new firmware, due to it's streaming nature from UMD/mspd.

gosh... if only i knew this earlier I wont rush to update so early

lesson learnt: never rush into CFW update unless it's proven safe / games you play require them

ehe
worst come worst, if it doesn't get fixed in 2-3 months, I have to get it downgraded already

so the latest update fixed the 333 MHz CPU issue?

although the sound is a bit soft, but at least it's noise free even u listen with headphones.

not necessary, avi just a container, some times is divx, sometimes is xvid (open source), and last time was Indeo/cinepak
PSP can support h264 AVC, but only limited to baseline profile with not more than 500kbps of video bitrate

look at 3.51 M33 and download it, open the readme file, from there, follow this and steps below

From there, you are on the M33 wagons, proceed to download 3.80 M33, understand the readme first.
I cannot make any guarantee that these are the exact steps

If going to shop update, expect no less than RM50. It takes just a while to update only

I'm interested in a PSP but completed know nothing about it. I've gone tru the FAQ at post #1 and would like to ask few questions.

#1
What is the difference purchasing from console shops instead of purchasing from Sony Style Malaysia?
difference in warranty, local console shops are selling parallel imported PSPs and Sony-MY won't help you service it.

#2
What is a modded PSP that console shops sells? Why are they not warrantied? What is the purpose of a modded PSP?
The same reason as a modded PS2. In other words it is to run homebrew and some "other" games. They are not warrantied as long as they found the modded firmware inside

#3
What does region do/mean?
PSP don't have games region, but do have UMD movie region which follows DVD region

#4
PSP got wifi. How do i type alphabets when i surf the net?
Onscreen keyboard, much like how you type SMS

#5
When i build my PC i have basic knowledge about PC and how to troubleshoot. Do i need some basic knowledge how to handle a PSP to own one? Like is there command or scripts that i need to mess with if my only intention with the PSP is to play games and maybe surf the net?
To play PSP games is as easy as ABC. You 'll need some knowledge in installing modded firmware and homebrew apps

#6
Where do most LYN surfer buy their UMD games from? The games selection seems limited.
playasia, or local website like TSB.com.my, or local game shops

#7
Is there instant messenger(IM) for PSP?
Skype as the official IM client for PSP now

#8
Will there be a new PSP soon? Do YOU GUYS recommend me to purchase the PSP without having a game desired? Till now I only play computer fps games so no favourites
There will not be any variation in PSP hardware for the time being.
Recommend or not it really depends on you. But to play FPS on a PSP is a no-no to me.
What PSP great is able to serve as portable entertainment, able to deliver near PS2 graphics. Upcoming game like God of War will expose hidden potentials in PSP hardware.

if u re those using PSP for gaming only, and would not be excited over the online radio, skype, go! messenger, then stay at 3.71 would be a better choice, until there's a game that u want to play that require 3.80

I was using PSP video 9 to convert a MPEG4 AVC 1080p file to an AVC 480x272 768kbps Stereo/128kbps, but all I get is "Unsupported data" under the video menu. Has anyone encountered this problem before? The resolution and bitrate falls under the compatible list of PSP, how come it was not playable?

why is the video playback in PSP is always lag abit compare to sound, aka. video /audio out of sync

converting using Total video converter, high quality, mpeg4 sp @ 368*208 @ 650kbps, audio @ 24khz

can convert to AVC/H264 MPEG4 or not? last time used PSP video 9, cannot playback after converted to H264

tried that, chosen AVC H264, video bitrate = 720kbps, audio=64k AAC , resolution=480x272

but still displayed as "unsupported" in XMB

is that Sony making a false claim that beginning firmware 2.0 later they will add support to AVC file up to 720x480? Why several tries still fail to prove that...

could be your TV not supporting progressive scan. Go to Settings > Connected video display > Component/D terminal output, and change the setting to interlace.

if ur mspd is 4 GB or bigger, format it in FAT16 using PC

PSP3000 not even officially launched in Malaysia yet, so fast PSP2000 running low on stocks?
