Hi Greg,

I use the instructions from the following link to build a ffmpeg able
to make mpeg4 avc files playable on a psp:
http://can.homeunix.org/sw/psp/ffmpeg_psp/

I also used Arne Zellentin pspenc.sh script from the same link above
and modified it to allow my to use a -t switch to pass the title.

Below is the user job script i use in mythtv, you will probably have to edit it.

--start--
#!/bin/sh
#user job command:auto-myth2psp %CHANID%" "%STARTTIME%" "%TITLE%"

export PATH=$PATH:/home/peter/bin

chanid=$1
starttime=$2
title=$3
temp=/tmp/myth2psp`date +%s`.mpg
exportdir=/home/peter/videos/psp/MP_ROOT/100ANV01/

cd $exportdir

#if you want to use commercial cut points you set manually, comment
out line below
/usr/local/bin/mythcommflag --chanid "$chanid" --starttime
"$starttime" --gencutlist
/usr/local/bin/mythtranscode --chanid "$chanid" --starttime
"$starttime" --mpeg2 --honorcutlist --outfile $temp
sleep 1


#nice -n19
/home/peter/bin/pspenc.sh -1 -4 -t "$3" "$temp"
rm ${temp}
rm ${temp}.map
--end--
