This is what happens when I have too much time on my hands but don't feel like doing proper blogging just yet. I've been using my PSP a lot these days so I figured it'll be neat if I can put all of the new opening/ending themes from various shows into my memory cards. Well, here are some of the OP/ED that I encoded (various size, MP4 format). Once you download the zip, uncompressed them and you should see a folder with a MP4 and THM files. You need to put both of these files into your PSP video directory. If you don't have a PSP, the MP4 files can still be opened using Quicktime. Please note that I retain the aspect ratio of all files, so in the case of Yakitate!! Japan opening/ending, the ratio stays TV size. Anyway, I will put up some more files later on once I have the time.
Dramatic (Honey and Clover 1st OP Theme) - 9.1MB, MP4
Dramatic V2 (Honey and Clover 2nd OP Theme) - 10MB, MP4
Girls on Film (Speed Grapher OP Theme) - 16.7MB, MP4
Promise (Yakitate!! Japan 2nd OP Theme) - 16.7MB, MP4
Waltz (Honey and Clover 1st ED Theme) - 18.7MB, MP4
Just wanted to comment that I think it's great you had time on your hands to do these. It makes my psp that much cooler now that I can watch them. Though now that I think about it, did you use anything special to encode them?
Also on a side note- I enjoy your reviews too. Been a visitor since Feb 2004. Keep the good stuff coming!
Epic, I only use PSP Video 9 to encode the videos:
http://www.pspvideo9.com/
It's a freeware that allows the user to tinker with different control settings so you can decide how much or how little compression you want to apply to the video.
Another thing that you probably want to take into consideration is the source of the video. If your source is already badly compressed to begin with, encoding it into MP4, will only make it worse. So try to get the best quality source to begin with.
