For the last 3 days, I've been doing things for my PSP, well, actually, my bro's PSP. I am one of those who like it "official" or at least "looks like official"
So, he's got this FFIX on his PSP, but just a bunch of poor icons displayed, PSX logo for the icon, SONY Entertainment logo for the background, a bunch of crap I say!
So, I tried to create custom files for this por FFIX, well, custom pics, videos, and sound. I managed to create the pics with ease, sound is okay, but the video is the hard part.
I need this program named "SONY UMD Tools" to create videos compatible with PSP, .pmf files, since my internet is so f@#king slow, I can't download one, thank God my friend managed to get one of those
after I got one, creating the vidoe is no easy task, I ripped the intro from the CD, and the result was somewhat discouraging, somehow when I playback it, there's some lag, fortunatley, it's just temporary glitch with my WMP, now it works fine.
After that, I fired up a few applications, edit the video, convert this to that, edit settings here and there, and I managed to create a video. What luck, when I put it in the PSP, the video is messy, lRGB lines evrywhere and a few mini version of what-supposed-to-be the video is in the box, what's more, no sound is played
Then I look for things on the internet, turns out the video AND the sound together should be under 500kb (what lunatic want us to get quality video and audio under 500kb?) and I need another encoder, since my video encoder is not suietd to create the file I need (it's for something else, still video apparently)
After cutting the video evrywhere and encode it, calculate the resulting total filesize, I managed to get out alive with 498kb, 332 kb for the sound (looped FFIX Menu) and the video (quick video showing the word "SQUARESOFT" zoom in and shows that small cargo ship, and Hilda Garde 3, Final Fantasy IX logo, and back to squaresoft logo again, for the sake of looping, and it's only 6 secs long, imagine how fast it is)
The result? Pretty good, not what I expected(the video somehow is not fullscreen, although I've set it as the instruction on the internet says, maybe because the filesize is too small?) but still, it's good to have the video AND the sound running at the same time
Now I expect my bro to say "bloody hell! What have you done?"
Alright, onto Castlevania SOTN then.....
