The Product Works
This product does what it says. I have a 1GB memory stick and 4 feature films of good quality on it and as I spend a major amount of time on airplanes and I want to watch my choices of viewing, this has become a superb addition to my PSP. The other reviews about technical difficulty and getting out of sync voice to the picture are things that I cannot duplicate and this product only got 4 out of 5 due to the fact that it can't do protected DVDs. What did I learn?
1. It doesn't break copyright protected DVDs, so you will have to decrypt the DVD first (Google for this software and you are all set)
2. Your machine needs to have ample capacity on the hard drive for the decrypted files so that you can put them into a PSP format of the movie.
3. Don't try to go straight to the PSP, put it onto your hard drive first.
4. For the best visibiliity on the PSP screen for different formats of widescreen use the 'Best Quality - Zoom [1300kbps]' setting as this allows you to choose the screen size when playing back on the PSP and there is no real difference in visible quality with the full frame option which you cannot change while playing back.
5. Don't be fooled that this is a quick process. Any DVD will take a while to convert and if you choose the wrong settings, you will have to redo the process, however it works and now I have got used to it, I have no complaints or regrets.

The product works.

Appalling software
It converts the visual movie fine but the sound quality of the end result is shocking. Do not buy this product but instead spend your money on 'PSP Movie Creator' or 'PSP Video 9' as its free and does the job!

Realistic expectations
BR>I found this to be a cheap and very easy to use product. Sure, it takes more than the length of the movie to transfer and the sound level is low but neither are big enough downsides to distract from the ability to view every DVD you own on your PSP. I stand to be corrected, but I'm not sure the freeware versions have the direct transfer facility, which saves you using up hardrive space.
When you've installed the programme YOU ABSOLUTELY NEED TO DOWNLOAD THE mcldcrypt.exe FILE - Stick the file name in Google and you're away, otherwise Copy Protection (on just about every DVD) will stop you dead, and then it has been a waste of money.

Be realistic - plug your PSP in, click copy, walk away and let it get on with it. Watch the movie, keep it or delete it and do it all over again....just needs a bit of forward planning!! To give you a guide I've got a 1gb stick and can fit 2 90+min movies on it.

The saving in not having to rebuy your existing DVD library in UMD format makes up for the load-time and sound downsides so in short, for 20quid it's worth a punt.
