Huge news: I actually like a Quick Start machine. It's this one.

Look, Gravis, I don't appreciate being called out like this. How I watch your videos is my choice - and my choice is to squish your 4K face onto my PSP... vertically.

See how I did this below the fold...


First, I used yt-dlp to download the video. To save time I downloaded the 360p version, since we won't be needing more than that anyways.

I then used Davinci Resolve to rotate & crop the video. I'm sure you could've done this with some ungodly complicated ffmpeg command, but I'm above all that.

Lastly, I used a preset I found online (archived here) for Handbrake to re-encode the video. I had to use an older release of Handbrake to do this, as they've been pulling out support for older devices. I used version 1.2.2.

Then you just copy it to your PSP in the VIDEO folder and you're done! Now you too can enjoy the YouTube experience.

Frustratingly, I found that Sony has changed the supported video codecs on the PSP as it aged. I couldn't get the video to work on my much nicer-looking PSP-1000 running software 3.51, but it did work on my more "lightly used" PSP-2000 running 6.60.

Huh, I had the HP equivalent of this machine -- and damn, I kinda miss it. Similar specs, came with a tuner card instead though, but the remote fit inside the other expansion card slot.

oh hey i forgot i have a cohost, you mentioned how you cant find images of a Medion MD97000, so i compiled a few into a Imgur album: /a/nmFDDr0
i mentioned it in the youtube comment reply but it got eaten by the void

edit: i just looked up an ancient written review of it and IT HAD QUICKSTART / a media player "OS" that it boot into w/o booting windows

Your little rant about video passthrough on laptops being a solved problem in the era of the integrated + discrete GPU pair is something that I think every fuckin computer manufacturer needs to have ludovico'd into their brains somehow, because I've said it before and I'll keep saying it

I mean for that matter I maintain any laptop without a dgpu should have an oculink output for an external GPU, but I realize that's a crank opinion and not something most people would take seriously. But these are perfectly good screens and if I can use something like moonlight to get near-lagless 1080p video from a computer 2 rooms away, why the hell can't I plug it into my laptop directly to do that instead???
