Blu-ray to Feature PSP Transfer

Jimmy 2004 · Jan 9, 2008

It looks like Sony has truly admitted defeat with UMD movies following plans to allow the PS3 to transfer Blu-ray movies onto PSP memory sticks. Rather than re-encoding the HD content for the PSP's resolution, Sony plans to have Blu-ray disks which feature a PSP-specific version of the movie on the same disk as the main feature, allowing the PSP to simply copy it from the disk directly to the memory stick. The one downside of this would be that Blu-ray films which have already been sold will probably not be compatible with this feature. President of Sony Pictures Home Entertainment, David Bishop, said:

This way, you can have a portable copy you can take with you. There was always the promise of greater interactivity. You'll see that coming in the new year.

Would there be much difference to waching a UMD in teeny weeny eye strain vision?

I only owned 2 UMD movies for my PSP. Spiderman 2, which came with the PSP, and Van Wilder which I found at a Flee Market for $5. I only used them once while on flying.

Then I found the magic of ripping DVDs to the memory sticks and UMDs became useless to me.

It really isn't that bad watching videos on the PSP screen. It isn't like it has to be big, you are only holding it a foot or two away from your face.

at 368x208 i dont think piracy will be a problem. as the PSP video use a MP4 format, i assume we will be able to play these files on other media players like a zune, ipod or any other similar device

I never really understood the point of UMDs - the only one I had was given as a gift, and I remember thinking "well, thanks but why not just buy me the DVD so I can at least view the film on something other than the PSP". How ungrateful I know........

They should add MP4 versions of the featured film/TV series all DVDs - save me a lot of time ripping and encoding, and when you consider how many people have PSPs / iPods / Zunes etc I bet it would be very well received.
