Hi, I'm new, I just bought a PSP yesturday from a friend for a really good deal. Almost New PSP Value Pack for 175$. Unfortunately, the system came with Firmware 2.01 on it, so since I couldn't downgrade, I upgraded just for the hell of it. Nothing wrong with staying legit right? Anyway I have a small problem and I don't know if its because of 2.60 or not. I downloaded some files to my memory stick and they don't work. The first files were in mp4s .zip format, I know that cant be helped until I get a USB cord. The other file was a Red vs Blue mp4 I found on this site, I downloaded it to the ---ANV01 folder and the PSP doesn't see it. I've downloaded movies from the official PSP website to this folder before and watched them with no problems. That was before I upgraded. My question is, since I cant use them, how can I delete these files without formating my memory card or using a USB cord? I don't have a USB Cord yet and I have game data I dont want to lose. More importantly, why isn't the movie recognized by the PSP?

I'm not sure as to why your PSP isn't recognising movies, but i'd try using PSP Video 9 to convert the video's first. I used to have problems with video's, but they've all been fine since i've used the program.

Also, whenever I upload video's mine go to the MNV01 directory, not the ANV01 folder. I always thought that the ANV01 folder was to put the thumbnail type images, so that your clips have a preview of them.

I don't think it's possible to delete files that your PSP doesn't recognise either, i've had issues with that too. I think there should be a file manager created on the PSP so that you can adjust files etc, even if your PSP doesn't recognise them.

Well, if it doesnt see it, you'll need to connect the PSP to your computer via a usb cable. Then delete the file that way. If you can see, but not play it, just highlight the file, press TRIANGLE, and select Delete.

Put em in the MV folder

Thanks guys. I think I tried putting them in every folder by now but I'll try the mnv folder again/anyway. Last night I went to the Official PSP website and downloaded a trailer to the ANV01 folder and it worked. I'm going to try an find a USB cord today, because my memory card is down to 6MB thanks to these invisible files. GameStop was sold out so I'm hoping Wal-Mart sells them. Or actually I hope Wal-Mart has some in stock because they're always sold out of whatever I'm looking for. -.-

EDIT: Tried putting it in the MNV folder, still didn't work. I now have a movie somewhere in every folder and the PSP just won't play them. Something tells me this is because I'm running 2.60.. Does anyone else use 2.60? I remember reading something about it being able to play copy-wrighted video in the discription. If by copy-wrighted I hope they didn't mean stuff off the Official PSP website only. That would be such nazified bogusness. ._.

Remember, the usb cable can be by any brand. It doesnt have to be an official sony one.

You can use any USB cable. If you have a digital camera, it's probably the same cable so you can use that and save yourself $5-10. Then you can backup your memory stick to your computer, format the stick, and everything should work for you...

I got a USB cable earlier today. Everything is working fine now, even the movies. The reason why the movies weren't working was because they lacked the corresponding .thm files [a result from direct downloading]. So I had to use PSP Video 9 to get them to work. Thanks for all the help guys.
