Using the default 3GP settings (just click OK when the custom dialog pops up the first time), I got a movie which plays on both these popular US handsets. On a Mac, simply use the Bluetooth 'send file' feature to send the movie over to the device. Away it goes.

BREAKING: Camera Add-On to be Supported in upcoming PSP 3.0 Firmware

LATEST NEWS: PSP 2.8 FIRMWARE
As noted below, MoviesForMyPod/PSP/Phone does not create files compatible with the Sony PSP 2.7 Firmware. I just flashed (upgraded) a PSP to version 2.8 to test with the latest firmware. Indeed, both standard 4:3 and widescreen encoding 16:9 are now again working in 2.8. Use the 2.6-compatibility mode and place your files into a folder named /VIDEO on your PSP memory stick.

---

The most important support note regarding this release is: if you want widescreen on your PSP, make sure and keep your 2.6 firmware. If you're still running 1.5, my advice is to find the 2.6 firmware updater (update to 2.6), but DO NOT upgrade to 2.7 (yet). There is vast amounts of PSP/MPEG-4 content on the internet which is not compatible with the 2.7 firmware, including the .MP4 files produced by MoviesForMyPod/PSP/Phone.

iPod? No troubles there. This new version will allow you to fit even more music videos on your iPod than before.

1. Convert any song in your iTunes library into a Ringtone.
2. Send it to your phone with the Bluetooth utility (built into Mac OS X).

Probably the biggest news in MoviesForMyPod/PSP/Phone 1.01 is the addition of AAC ringtone conversion. While less popular here in the USA, in Europe, SymbianOS based phones make heavy use of AAC (MPEG-4) audio.

Tutorial Here.

The above tutorial will work with any protected or unprotected song from your iTunes library. Just use Audio Hijack with an iTunes session instead of a Safari session.

Convert RiHanna's SOS to an AAC ringtone, for free (requires Macintosh computer):

1. Download MoviesForMyPod/PSP/Phone.
2. Head on over to Rogue Amoeba and download the free version of Audio Hijack.
3. Familiarize yourself with Audio Hijack. It's very easy to use. Basically, it will capture any audio from Safari etc. to an AIFF (audio) file on your desktop.
4. Capture a Safari session and head over to imf.com.
5. Use Audio Hijack to capture the sound from RiHanna SOS video and save it as an AIFF on your desktop.
6. Open the AIFF file with MoviesForMyPod/PSP/Phone and choose "Phone Audio: AAC Ringtone Small File".
7. Convert the File to RiHannaSOS.aac. Use the Bluetooth utility to "Send File..." and send the RiHannaSOS.aac to your Bluetooth phone.
8. Receive the RiHannaSOS.aac. Depending on what phone model you have, it may ask you if you want to apply the file as a Ringtone. Otherwise, save the file to your audio location on the phone.
9. Finally, modify your phone "Profile". Once the RiHannaSOS.aac is saved in the audio folder on your phone, you should be able to select it as a ringtone.
