Most PSP owners have been expecting Sony would announce somethingabut watch TV on PSP, however, they didn’t say anything. Sony released an update that allowed you to watch cable TV, DVDs and DVR from your home entertainment center anywhere you can access a broadband connection. The only one downside is that it costs $350 to buy the LocationFree TV _base_ station.

All you need to do is to record TV shows which you like with a DVD recorder and then convert DVD to PSP video with a DVD Ripper or a DVD to PSP Converter. I myself use 'Pavtube DVD to PSP Converter' (http://www.pavtube.com/dvd_to_psp/) because it rips fast and convert DVD to video of excellent quality.

It looks like they are preparing for some sort of announcement. I just hope a major price drop would be included. I've summarized how to set-up LocationFree TV and what features it includes on the jump. Set-up looks fairly easy: Upgrade PSP You can do this via USB connection to your net enabled computer or WiFi. Connect your _base_ station The _base_ station has one cable in and two other audio/video ins for use with a DVD p_layer_, DVR or VCR. There is also an IR blaster so you can change channels or control the various devices connected. Finally, you have to connect the _base_ station to the internet. It looks like the preferred method is a LAN cable. Configure the TV channels and on-screen remote control It looks like TV channel set-up is well put together; supporting both the _base_ stations internal tuner and the tuner of whatever device you happen to plug it into. Watching TV on Your PSP To watch TV on the go you just need to make sure you turn your _base_ station on and that you can find a hotspot that you can access. Once you hook-up to your _base_ station via the network there are a variety of things you can do. The PSP's TV watching options let you adjust the video rate, get channel information, remotely switch input from TV to one of the other A/V inputs you set up, switch audio for bilingual broadcasts and, most importantly, bring up the on-screen remote. On Screen Remote There are two types of remotes for the PSP, the standard TV remote and the connected device remote. The standard TV remote lets you change channels and control the volume settings. The connected device remote lets you do a variety of things depending on the device connected. If the connected device is made by Sony you can bring up a remote similar to the one you would use at home, otherwise you may not get full use out of the remote. The problem is that anywhere I'd want to be able to watch TV on the go probably doesn't have a hot spot I can access or I have to pay extra to use it.
