As you've probably guessed from the title, PMP Mod AVC supports the AVC video format - great for firmware 1.5 users, as they won't have to upgrade to 2.0+ to play AVC files! Jonny would like to thank magiK (the author of PMF Player) for unlocking the AVC capabilites. magiK has:PMP Mod AVC
* Unlocked the avc decoding api
* Modified x264 to make the stream fully psp compatible
* Followed/helped Jonny with the decoding api
This is the first version of the program, and a little bit of knowledge about AVC files is required in order to get them to play correctly on your PSP. Here's what Jonny said:
Compatible streams can be created with x264, here are some commandline examples:
x264 --crf 25 -A all --level 3 --pictiming --aud --no-psnr --thread-input --progress --output out.264 in.avs
x264 --bitrate 512 -A all --level 3 --pictiming --aud --no-psnr --thread-input --progress --output out.264 in.avs
In the muxer you need to specify width, height and fps of the video. I've patched x264 to write a file with this informations. If the muxer finds this file, informatios here will be used instead of the one specified manually (so, in a normal situation, you don't need to specify the info manually).
This special version is completely seperate to the original PMP mod, and because this is the first version, has reduced functionality over the full PMP Mod, with reduced options. It runs at 222Mhz at around 67fps, with MP3 decoding responsible for the small amount of lag. AVC files need to be converted to the .PMP movie format using the included muxer.
