How to convert video/dvd and put video on psp?

Sony PSP support MPEG-4 Video formats, but it can't play MPEG-4 video encoded with bit rate higher than 768kbps that is why high quality MPEG-4 files need to be converted to a lower bit rate. The PSP will not recognize MPEG-4 video file unless it has a name in the format of M4Vxxxxx.MP4, where xxxxx is five numbers The file needs to start with M4V followed by five numbers, and then it must end in .MP4. Only meet this requests that you can put video on your psp and watch them.

Above version 2.0 of the Sony PSP firmware added support for another video file format: MPEG-4 AVC. These files follow a similar naming convention to the regular .MP4 files, as they are named MAQxxxxx.MP4, where xxxxx is five numbers. AVC video files offer better image quality then regular MPEG-4 files.
