How to Put QuickTime Videos on a PSP

The Sony PlayStation Portable isn't just for playing games; it also works as a high-quality video player. However, the PSP can't use QuickTime movies, the standard format for many Apple devices. Before you can play a Quicktime movie on a PSP, you must convert it to the MPEG-4 format, which can be used on the console.
