The Digital Bits Guide to UMD Movies for Sony's PSP Site created 12/15/97. Page created: 6/1/05 updated: 10/2/06 As many of you know, Sony's hand-held PlayStation Portable (PSP) videogame system finally arrived in stores in late March (3/24 to be specific). 500,000 units were sold in the PSP's first two days of availability, with some 600,000 sold by the end of the first week. Sony has reportedly sold more than 2.5 million PSP units in the U.S. And Japan to date (1.2 million of that in the U.S.
Alone), and industry analysts expect the company to sell an estimated 4.5 million to 5.5 million PSPs in North America by the end of 2005. Dozens of game titles are already available, with many more on the way. From our standpoint here at The Bits, however, what makes the PSP most interesting is its ability to play full-motion film and video content via its Universal Media Disc (UMD) format.
UMD is newly-developed, compact, high-capacity optical disc that can store up to 1.8 GB of data on a 60mm disc, which is housed in a lightweight plastic disc sleeve. In addition to videogame software, a number of major Hollywood studios (including Sony Pictures Home Entertainment) have begun releasing feature films on UMD format. Films on UMD can be presented in 16x9 aspect ratio (the PSP's LCD display screen is itself 16x9 with 480x272 pixel resolution, and can reproduce some 16.77 million colors).
The video is encoded using advanced AVC compression (MPEG4 AVC codec) and it features AES 128bit encryption for content security. Audio is presented in PCM stereo (via headphones or over the unit's built-in speakers) and subtitles are often available as well. The quality of these films is surprisingly good.
It's certainly not up to DVD level, but it's better than I would have expected over such a small screen. 1.85:1 films generally fill the display area. On the other hand, some 2.35:1 films are letterboxed to preserve the correct theatrical aspect ratio, but others are cropped to fill the 16x9 frame (as often happens with HD broadcasts of 2.35:1 films on HBO). Note that while some of the discs feature limited bonus material, including behind-the-scenes featurettes, most titles are movie-only. Here's a look at the front and back of a PSP showing Sony's 2.35:1 House of Flying Daggers, re-formatted to fill the 16x9 screen. While we're at it, here's a look at an actual UMD disc (left below), along with sample packaging for a trio of major studio UMD releases. Retail prices for these films generally range from $14.99 up to $29.99 (you find them in most stores in the videogame isle).
As of the time of this writing, nearly 20 films are available on UMD for PSP, with more than 100 additional titles announced (or soon to be announced) for release later in the year. Two of the currently available titles, Sony's House of Flying Daggers and Resident Evil: Apocalypse (both released on 4/19) have already sold more than 100,000 copies each - a surprising number given that it took some nine months for the first DVD title to reach the same milestone (for the record, it was Sony's Air Force One). In addition to Sony (Columbia TriStar), other major Hollywood studios like 20th Century Fox, Buena Vista, Paramount, Universal and MGM have announced support for the UMD format. Mini-major Lions Gate has announced their support as well. Independents Image Entertainment, Eagle Rock Entertainment and Geneon Entertainment have also confirmed that they'll release UMD titles for the PSP in the near future. Here at The Digital Bits, we don't expect UMD moves to EVER sell in the kinds of numbers that DVD titles do, and we doubt UMD will have any real impact on the forthcoming HD-DVD/Blu-ray Disc format war either. UMD is really just a convenient way to watch movies in decent quality on the go, while DVD (and soon HD-DVD and Blu-Ray Disc) are about presenting the highest video and audio quality possible by today's standards for home theater (along with loads of extras that would never fit on a UMD).
But you can't deny that UMD is growing in popularity - clearly a lot of people out there have come to appreciate it. And the list of titles already slated for release on the format is, frankly, astonishing (as you'll see below), particularly given that the PSP has only been available for three months. If only some of these studios had supported DVD this aggressively so early.
