I have been getting reasonably good results first ripping a DVD with DVD Decrypter and then using PSPVideo9. If I convert a 1:85:1 film using 480X272, it takes up the entire PSP's screen and looks amazing.
But when it comes to 2:35:1/2:40:1 films, things get trickier and more confusing. I used 720X480 and it did indeed make the film take up the PSP's entire screen, but the video quality was poor...very pixelated and jaggy. I then tried to enter a custom setting of 480X320, which is the same ratio as 720X480, but I figured it might look better. However, the resulting file said "UNSUPPORTED DATA" when I transferred it to my PSP. I guess the PSP is very finicky about what aspect ratio's it will allow?? No idea why it could not play a 480X320 file.
If I use 480X272 on a 2:35:1 widescreen film, it does not take up the entire screen...still get sizable black bars. I did use 480X204 as a custom setting and the bars were somewhat reduced. I am under the understanding that you have to crop a 2:35:1/2:40:1 film in order for it to take up the entire screen at 480X272, correct?
Also, does anyone know the best conversion to decode a movie that has a 1:66:1 aspect ratio? Would 480X272 work here? 1:66:1 seems to be a very common resolution of widescreen films released now.
Thanks in advance for any and all responses.
