PSP FAQs

Can I convert my own movies and play them on the PSP?

0

Yes, there are many programs available that will convert video files to a PSP compatible format. Playback time depends on which version of the memory stick you have (32 MB, 128 MB, 256 MB, 512 MB, 1 GB) and the bitrate that you encode the movie (the higher the bit rate, the better quality the movie). Download PSP Video 9 from our Download Section.

I cannot save bookmarks on my browser!

0

To be able to save bookmarks, you must have the “SYSTEM” folder in your “PSP” folder. A quick way to correct this is to format your Memory Card, but remember to backup your data first!

What happens if the battery dies or I need to turn the PSP off?

0

The PSP has a hibernate mode, which saves your exact position when you turn off the console. When you turn on the console, you will be in the exact same position, whether in the PSP system menus, or actually playing a game.

If your battery dies, all unsaved data will be lost. If the green power LED on your PSP is flashing, it is best to save your game, as this indicates low battery.

To hibernate your PSP, simply push the power switch up for no more than 1 second. To turn off your PSP completely, hold the power switch up for 3 seconds.

What type of files can I store on my memory stick?

Can I email my game saves to friends or upload them to a server/website/FTP site?

0

Yes, you can take your game saves from the Memory Card and upload them to a webserver or email them.

To do this, simply connect your PSP to a PC/Mac using a USB cable (Or you can use a card reader to directly read the Memory Card). Access the “SAVEDATA” folder, found in the “PSP” folder, and ZIP the game save that you want. Then upload it or email it!

What is the battery life for the PSP?

0

The lithium-ion battery offers a play time of 4 to 7 hours for games, 3 to 5 hours for movies, and approx 10 hours for music. In order to get at least 6 hours for gaming, and 5 hours for movies, you will need to be using headphones with the volume turned down to less than half, the backlight turned down to the minimum setting, and the wireless LAN mode should be turned off.

The PSP has many power-save options that should be configured correctly to ensure you get the most out of your battery.

If you find that the standard battery isn’t enough, you can purchase additional batteries or portable chargers from £15 – £35.

Can I play games from Japan or US on my European PSP? What about UMD movies?

0

The PSP is multi-region so you are able to play games from around the world, although it is possible that not all games will work (so far, we have no evidence to prove this). There may be incompatibility issues with multi-player games when using copies from different regions.

UMD Movies on the otherhand are not multi-region. If you own a European (PAL) PSP, you can only play region 2 UMD Movies, which means a PAL console can play JAP UMD movies, but not US, as US is Region 1. Please check the region code on the back of the case to ensure correct compatibility.
