Ok, I am in linux so I cannot use this app unfortunately, but I am hoping you could help me, since you are the only app that seems to support 3.30. I have tried and triied to get the new video support to work on the PSP using ffmpeg, but to no avail. I was hoping you could inform as to what commandline is used in your program?

I found a site with a some ffmpeg usages spelled out that have worked wonderfully for me under Linux. It produced working videos at all the new resolutions, and has examples for both one and two pass encoding. You can take a look at it by clicking here (http://rob.opendot.cl/index.php/useful-stuff/psp-video-guide/).
One thing these don't do is set the correct aspect ratio... these start off squished into 4:3 mode. If Red Kawa would share what setting fixes this, I'd love to hear about it! Using ffmpeg's -aspect switch didn't seem to fix it... maybe there's an x264 specific option that needs to be set?

Thanks for the link, and I am testing those command-lines as I type this, but I am concerned about the aspect ratio problem. I noticed that in the new version (2.15) they fix the aspect ratio after the video is already encoded, and it goes super fast. Maybe someone knows of a feature in ffmpeg that sounds like this?

Well, I got it corrected for 480x272, but not for 720x480. Adding the switch "-aspect 1.7647" after the "-s 480x272" switch seems to fix it for that resolution. I find the DAR and SAR stuff really confusing... :confused: There is an x264 switch for SAR, but ffmpeg doesn't seem to directly support setting this that I can tell, and it seems like this is the thing we need to worry about. I'll play with the 720x480 resolution more myself, but if someone with more smarts than me can figure it out, that'd be great. :)
