Always thought those in-game cutscenes were cool, but you couldn't view them anywhere else except during the game?

PMF (Playstation Media Files) is a PSP video file format that being used in many games for PSP. so many games cut scene and movies are actually stored on the UMD with PMF format and all the game is doing is calling the PSP AVC(H264) module to play it.

Want to play PMF video on your PC? for that, you will need to extract the PMF out of the ISO image. Here is a guide on how to extract the PMF video with UMDGen. I hope this tutorial comes in handy cheesy.

You can open and modify ISOs using UMDGen, the latest version is currently 4.00. Download the UMDGen

Now you are ready to extracting PMF video:

1. Open UMDGEN and open the game you want to get a video. UMDGEN v4.00 can open compressed games. there is no need to convert your CSOs to ISOs before ripping.
2. Browse the directory from a PSP .ISO game, first seen a folder with the name PSP_GAME and file UMD_DATA.BIN. Looking for a folder called "Video" / "Movie" / "Cutscene" etc, inside you will find all the PMF video.
3. Select the PMF file you want to extract, right-click and choose "Extract to" option. Browse to the folder you wish to save the PMF video.
