Introduction to 3GP (the program that changes your .vob files to MPEG4 files)

Step 1. Open 3GP

Step 2 Choose the correct bitrate for your particular Memorystick., I use the one below (the purpose of different bitrates is for compression reasons).

Step 3. Choose the Output Directory by clicking on select  (I usually create a folder called PSP Movies).

Step 4. Locate the .vob file you created with DVD Decrypter then drag and drop it into the 3GP converter box.

Step 5. Wait for 3GP to convert your .vob file to a MPEG4 file.

Step 6. Your completed backup should look something like the one below.

Step 7. You’ll notice that there are two files the 3GP in this directory an .MP4 file and a .THM file. The purpose of the .THM file is to show what movie you’re looking at once you’ve transferred it to the PSP, you can ether delete this file or keep it.

The end product

Finally what I’d do before I put the final backup on the PSP is to test the playback on Quicktime to make sure the movie is in synch or not.
