The advent of technology has made it possible for everything to be portable. This is why Sony has released its Sony Playstation Portable, popularly known as PSP. This toy is a marvel and is not really a toy.

Although it is popular for its computer games, Sony Playstation has evolved into something else. People can now watch movies and listen to MP3s in this gadget. Ultimately, people can watch music videos in PSP provided that it has enough disk capacity to sustain PSP music videos.

Multitudes of people can be seen walking the street with a PSSP unit. What used to be a Walkman is now a PSP, with more features. Before, a Walkman can only play music. PSP can play videos, play games, and even music videos.

To download PSP music videos, you need to be careful since there might be virus attacks from malicious people pretending to offer free PSP music video downloads. You should only get PSP music videos from trusted and reliable sources.

It is also pretty much easy to download music videos for PSP. All that you need is a memory stick, a USB cable. Once the USB cable is connected to the PSP and to the computer, your computer should be able to detect the memory stick on your PSP. Then you simply transfer the music video files you want.

If you want to get unlimited PSP music videos, I recommend you join a paid PSP download site. These PSP membership sites allow you to download unlimited PSP music videos for a one time fee. There are no download limits and the download speeds are faster. Besides downloadable PSP music videos, you can also download unlimited PSP games and movies.

The Windows port of VLC usually starts up with the Qt interface which is used in the Linux one as well. The user can decide to use the Skins interface instead to be able to modify the interface according to his or her mood.

How to store streaming station presets

To use VLC as a streaming client, store your station presets under the Media Library on the Playlist panel (not the bookmarks and not the actual playlist itself).

Open the playlist panel (Ctrl-L or click on the Playlist button). Click on the Plus button at the bottom of the panel. (A dropdown menu will appear.) Select “Advanced Open” from the dropdown menu. (A new panel, named Open Media, will appear.) Select the “Networking” tab on the Open Media panel. Enter the full URL of the streaming station in the Address field. e.g. http://mystation.org:8000/mystream.ogg Click the Enqueue button at the bottom of the panel. How to associate media files to VLC

This should be done through the VLC settings interface, choose “Tools | Preferences ” and then click on the “File Associations” button. Select any file extension that you wish to open with VLC, then click “Apply”. This should change all media files icons to the VLC cone, and double-clicking any of them should open VLC and immediately start playing the media.

If this seems to have no effect on the UI, and/or double-clicking the file icon does not start VLC, check that you have correctly set Windows preferences through “Start | Default Programs” (on Vista; see the relevant item on Windows XP or newer Windows OS; possibly this is not applicable to Windows 2000). In that UI click on “Set default programs”, select the “VLC media player” item and check the description (it will usually say “All default settings for this program are active”). Then choose your own course of actions by either clicking on “Set this program as default” or “Choose default settings for this program”.

Other ways to achieve the same effects are as follows (not really recommended).

Use Windows Explorer’s context menu In Windows Explorer, right-click a file you wish to open. Click “Open With” in the context menu that pops up. Click “VLC media player” to use VLC just this once, or click “Default program…” Click the name of the program (VLC) which you want to be used to open the file. If VLC is not displayed, click Browse to locate it on your hard drive.

Alternatively:

In Windows Explorer, right-click the file you want to open with VLC. Click Properties in the context menu that pops up. On the General tab, click Change. Click the name of the program (VLC) which you want to be used to open the file.

Either of these options affects all files that have the same filename extension (the letters after the filename’s period) as the file you selected. For example, if you change the program that opens goober.avi, then all .avi files will be opened with VLC.

Rerun the installer Reinstall VLC and choose the “associate files” option when it comes up. Please note that on Vista and newer OSes this will not cure the “Windows Media Player won’t go away” symptom, and you should go the “Set default program” route instead, as described above. Edit the registry

Warning: this instruction set is outdated and should not be used. Direct registry editing should be avoided anyway unless you’re desperate and you really really know what you’re doing.

Warning: use this technique only if you really know what you are doing! And be sure to back-up your registry first.

Open a text editor, like Notepad (but not WordPad). Copy this text below. Modify the strings C:\\Program Files\\VideoLAN\\VLC\\vlc.exe to match your VLC installation. Save as vlc.reg. Execute vlc.reg (adding this data to your registry). Enjoy VLC :)

You would probably like to download a free PSP theme. Virtually all PSP users do. The PSP has become an incredibly well known, and well loved, machine, and part of that is the flexibility it affords its users. Ipod socks are totally superfluous when you have the freedom to choose the exact way your PSP looks and behaves!

Download A Free PSP Theme Tip 1-Don’t use the main Sony site!

A lot of people never bother to look beyond the main Sony Playstation website when they are looking for themes for their PSP. It is virtually impossible to find a unique PSP Theme if you are downloading it from the same place as everybody else. Although there is no shortage of themes to choose from on the main site, there are a lot of people choosing them. Look somewhere else!

Download A Free PSP Theme Tip 2- Do an internet search

A lot of people will use the main search engines to find out how to download a free PSP theme, but use a bit of clever thinking, and you can get what you want. Instead of doing a direct search engine search for themes, look for PSP communities on the internet? Try to see if you can find some forums or newsgroups. This can be a really useful source of resources, sometimes from members of the forum, and sometimes just from threads. You can find custom-made PSP Themes on these dedicated forums.

Download A Free PSP Theme Tip 3- Don’t use a download!

You can try using one of the simple art programs on your computer to design your own original Theme. Virtually any of the simple art programs will allow you to produce a simple wallpaper, and this should be compatible with your PSP as long as you create it as a JPEG file. Another possibility is to get someone who is good with art to actually design a theme for you. You can find a PSP forum which has some decent Themes, and ask whoever designed the themes you like the best if they will create one for you. Often they will be happy to do it, although they may charge you a little for doing the job.

You can do a lot more with downloading free PSP Themes than just following everybody else with EA games wallpapers etc from the official Sony site. Be original, and you will enjoy your PSP more!
