Indeed a fix. I tried to just copy the video and audio streams of a Handbrake encoded file into a PSP MP4 with Avidemux a couple of weeks ago and it played that file, meaning that it was most certainly an encoding problem within Avidemux and not a problem with the proper file flagging (if any). The files also were still playable, by for example MPlayer, probably meaning that the problem wasn't in the x264 library. So what remained was encoding settings which the PSP doesn't like.
http://blog.yogarine.com/2007/12/converting-video-for-psp-on-linux.html (thanks for finding this Rodrigo) sheds light on the problem. And as also pointed out in one of the comments there, the only problems are that the PSP only reads video files with up to 2 reference frames ('Motion & Misc' tab) and without 8x8 transform ('Partitions & Frames' tab). I checked this with both settings turned on, or one of them turned on. Together they fix the unreadable files. Making all of this just wrong default settings for the PSP in the latest versions of Avidemux and probably a bug on all platforms. -- Lucid: MP4 (PSP) format preset makes MP4 in fact unreadable on PSP https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/575232 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
