PSP Video 9 works the best for encoding (even though it's not as easy as some).
I was looking for artifacts in the video, especially the smokey dark areas they like to show up.
I ran several tests on the same file (converting from a VOB, 45 min file).
Here's the settings I use:
Mode: AVC > FQ_VBR
Resolution: 368x208
Passes: Two
Keyframe Interval: 250
Aspect Ratio: 16:9
QScale: 20 (bug in program, label says bitrate, but when using AVC is is really qscale.)
Framerate: 29.97
Bitrate: 128 kbps
Sample Rate: 48000 Hz
Channels: Stereo
Volume: 225%
Comes out great. I am sacrificing time to encode and a bit more file space for better quality.
If you adjust the Qscale to 25, it will decreast the size of your final file making it a lot smaller. A full length movie encodes to around 450MB at the 20Qscale. 25 Qscale should shrink it down to maybe 200MB or so. You will have to play with the Qscale to get the size to quality ratio you want.
Use VBR as it works better. Variable Bit Rate, so the thing will adjust if there is a lot of activity on the screen so you wont get artifacts when things happen like explosions.
I boost the audio like that because it's way to quiet. Trust me on this one. You want the boost and it doesnt distort anything.
The dual pass is a must. It really makes a heck of a difference even though it takes longer to encode.
There is a bug in the program that the progress bar doesnt display correctly. You have to watch the second counter to really know how far into things it is.
I use these settings and I think it looks nearly as good as the DVD. There is no distortion or compression visable on the PSP screen. Heck it's not even that bad when you make it full screen on the PC (there will be some as the video is a lot smaller resolution than the PC screen).
I use DVD Shrink to RIP the file. Make sure that it the settings are not splitting the files based on size (which is the default). Uncheck that and it will put each movie in its own file. I.E. In PSP Video 9, You just encode the movie, not the menus and extras.
I've used a bunch of products and I like PSP Video 9 the best.
It also lets you edit thumbnails, titles, and file names. Just make sure you rename the file to a file name the PSP will accept and put it in the corerct folder.
When using AVC, the file should be labled MAQ#####.MP4 (use all caps, replace the # with numbers) and then put it into the 100ANV01 folder on your PSP.
PSP Video 9 will copy the file to the PSP, but you manually have to select the 100ANV01 or 100MN01 folder.
Disclaimer: Using any program to break copy protection of DVD's is illegal. Only RIP from sources that permit it and have no copy protection.

Why the hell do the sound effects always get messed up when I go through PSP Video 9?!? I have recently tried to transcode some of my youtube claymation movies, but on the ones that had like a gunshot sound or something, the sound always appears a second or two off as you progress through the movie. I have tried countless set ups, and I was praying your ideal one would work for me, but no, the sound was off.
