PSPWare

Nullriver continually says they haven't abandoned the software but with a (maybe) twice-yearly update schedule at best, it may as well be abandoned. If it works for you, great, but if it doesn't you can expect exactly *zero* support. They've been this way for years, as near as I can tell. Nullriver, if you are reading this, your coders are ok but your customer service is absolutely horrible.

I hope to change this review when I am finally contacted back by support@nullriver, but to this moment none of my three emails sent over the last 10 days have been responded to. so I am forced to write a bad review. I downloaded Medialink to my 1st Gen Intel iMac 10 days ago. It installed with no problems. Once installed I paid for the activation code and registered the product. I did this before I fully tested out the software. This was my mistake. Once registered I went in to the other room to check the ps3 and found the system was reporting a DLNA Protocol Error 7531. But there is no information on their website regarding this issue. With this error by ps3 does not recognize any files on my computer at all, no music no movies no pictures no file structure. I have emailed Nullriver 3 times and never heard anything back from them. not even a "we got your email but cannot respond at this time, please be patient". Help! I would like to use this software and not have to go back to Nullriver and demand my monies back. Help, Help!

Anyone having problems with this under Leopard?

Just Got it, best app for psp on the mac!! no problems so far, uploaded many movies!!

Yes, it is difficult to get in touch with the developer. I sent a firm letter to the customer service folks this morning and they responded. They resent my registration info and it worked......a great application.....I hope the developer keeps up.

I paid for this app 7 days again and still haven't received a SN. When I emailed them they told me to wait. As a Mac user for 20 years and now my own children all have Macs, I find it totally unacceptable to have to wait on a piece of shareware that could of easily been automated if the developer used Kagi or some other sort of cart system. I needed this software to convert some shows before I left on a trip (long car ride for the kids), and here I am almost done with my trip and still no SN and no answer from the developer. My suggestion is if you want to support good software developers, find another piece of software to support. This was a total 'take the money and run' situation.

Overall, I would say this is the best PSP app on the Mac... It takes a little getting used to (some things are a little too automated), but it works well & the video Quality it produces on the PSP is pretty good. It's also well integrated with the iApps (though don't expect protected music or movies to work) On the downside, though the app is supposed to be universal, the encoders themselves (to convert movies) are PPC, resulting in subpar performance on Intel Macs. I manually updated them in the App package with Universal versions of the same app (packaged in various other apps) and encoding speed nearly doubled... Food for thought :)

Further, there have been rumors of Nullriver Software having stopped developing PSPWare -- I assure you this is incorrect. We are in fact working on a major update for PSPWare and adding support for the PS3 (you heard it here first!). Please, in the future, refer to our web site for updates on our products and company and not forums where misinformation is often spread. PSPWare at its current stage is a very popular and highly rated product. We believe we have a good working milestone out right now, and that is why there are no current minor updates. We are working on bigger updates. Thank you for your attention, Maksim Rogov President Nullriver, Inc.

This was a fantastic app back in early 2006 but is now AbandonWare, as the developer has left it to stagnate for many many months now. Their own forums are rife with people asking what is going on, and no answer at all. It saddens me to say it, as I really liked PSPWare once, but - DON'T spend any money on this app, as it will be largely wasted.

Awesome application, does what it says. One complaint though... why not have bookmarks from FireFox and other web browsers? Does anyone still really use Safari?

Great app, but hasn't been updated in quite a while.

How Do i put movies on my psp???????

Realy a must have for all PSP owners. The money is worth it!

This app is now old hat. The developers refuse to include features that the customers ask for. • NO AVC support. While the pc users have had it for quite some time. Thanks. If you look on their forums they seem to be dead set against adding the feature, considering as feature bloat. Idiots. It's a supported sony format and we want to use it. Thanks again. • ERASES MEM STICK EVERY TIME you sync. F*cking dumb. You have to reset what you want on the card every-time. What if you just added one thing? Ludicrous. • GREAT psp encoding. that's all i use this for now, i don't even bother syncing anymore, its no longer important. • NOT AS FAST AS EARLIER VERSIONS. Dudes are getting lazy, or what? Many more movies now require the SLOW AS HELL quicktime conversion to be processed- even on my dual 2.5 the sh*t is slow as hell- what gives? the process used to be downright zippy back on a dual 142 g4. CMON!!! All i ask for is proper AVC support, better conversion speed, and getting rid of the aforementioned 'idiot' erase everything first' method. CMON!!!

This is somehting you should read before buying the app. Apperantly the developers don't work with this product anymore.. Alot of users are very dissapointed... http://www.psp411.com/forum/9547/0//Very_dissapointed_with_this_app.html

Its good for syncing music and videos only if you want to limit yourself to PSPWare and a single computer. If you are like me using two computers, then everytime you connect the psp to any of the computer the memstick contents gets deleted. So lets say I sync my music at home so I could listen to them on my way to work. Then I sync my PSP on my work computer, voila, no more music for my way home. There is no AVC encoding, and no PMP encoding which should be very easy cause it uses ffmpeg for encoding. MP4 Encoding is slow! No extra picture features (resize, crop) etc etc. More badthings is that you can't sync to any chosen directory.. it only the itunes playlists. So putting music from other directories is a hassle. One more missing feature is that it can't let u sync with any kinda filetype. Its limited to some types and hardcoded directories. Lastly, they don't update it so often and the jump from 2.0 too 2.5 meant nothing.

This software is a graet addition to the PSP. It truly is a must have. I at least use it everyday. Excellent price I think. Keep up the good work!

If you own a PSP and a Mac, get this. Like all the very best software, it just works - beautifully.

I don't have a PSP, but I do have the new video iPod, and this program's video convertor provides good quality videos and it does it all quickly. And it works on the new iPod.

Just perfect for the price. It does convert .avi files and it works perfectly on the PSP. Just a question: can you add just one item on your psp... or do you have to sync everything everytime ? Anyway, this a great soft. I love it.
