Tutorial for creating videos for the PSVita

[thebudds]

This is awesome thanks for the details, I wasnt to sure if I needed to uses Video9 or any other converter to be able to watch videos on the Vita.

No problem, the goal was just to put up all the stuff I learned personally and to let people not deal with the annoyances that I dealt with.

Thanks for the tutorial. I won't be putting any videos on my PS Vita because I have other devices that I'd rather watch them on (bigger screen), but it is really useful for people who use this as their everything device. Hopefully they will add a Vita option on the format drop down to make it easier for people.

thanks for the quick guide, I've been using a program called "PSP Video 9" but it's UI has started to give me a headache

Yeah... not a big fan of Video 9. Takes away to much control over what you want to do yourself, and after research I was able to get down the info needed to create them myself. While I wrote this to help people simply make a working video. If they choose to, they can go a lot further with the options available. Winnydows has made a great program, that I feel IMO is a lot better than even the paid ones.

@ everyone else

I'm always open to questions

you can also use ffmpeg:

psp: ffmpeg input_video -acodec libfaac -f psp -r 29.97 -s 320x240 -b 768k -ar 48000 -ab 64 output_video.mp4

psvita: ffmpeg input_video -acodec libfaac -f psp -r 29.97 -s 640x480 -b 768k -ar 44100 -ab 128k output_video.mp4

ps3 (hd): ffmpeg input_video -vcodec libx264 -s 1280x720 -level 41 -vpre normal -crf 24 -threads 0 -acodec libfaac -ab 151k -ac 2 -ar 44100 output_video.mp4

these are all the commands I use in my program I they all work fine in Ubuntu and Windows
if you get an error with libfaac you might want to change libfaac to faac or use another build with libfaac support.

AVC level 4.1 is not compatible with the Vita, you mean 3.1?

[Acid_Snake]

no, that command is for ps3 only, you might change it for the vita if you want hd res
