Calibre (EBook Library/Converter). Is like Nook for PC or which ever other PC based EReader for Windows, Mac or Linux

Next you need either Bookr, or any of the Mods of Bookr like zBookr

WinRAR for the HTMLZ part.
I was looking for anyway to be able to read a Epub/Mobi on a PSP/Vita. but for some reason, all the Viewers I tried either has Errors, or would not work right, or in the case of PSPKVM+Mobipocket Reader, would not detect the MemCard on either Devices. PSPKVM+Albite Reader would not open them either. Bookr would not work with PDF Files even though it should. So, over on GBATemp, I found a Solution thanks to other Users Input.
So, make sure you have WinRAR already Installed. For BookR, we will start with the HTMLZ Files
Install Calibre and run the Program
For all your Books, go to the left side top and hit the Drop Down Arrow by Add Books and Select
Add Books from Directories, including Sub-Directories (Multiple Books per Directory). After you are done, you will see all your Books. Also, they will be copied to the following location:
C:/Users/*User Name*/My Documents/Calibre Library
Now for the Following Steps, they will work for BOTH FB2 and HTMLZ.
Select which Books you want for reading on your Vita/PSP
Right Click on them or Select the Arrow Drop Down by Convert Books and Select either Convert Individually or Bulk Conversion.
Over on the Top Right you will see EPUB. Hit that Drop down and Select either FB2 or HTMLZ.
On the left Side Option Listings, Select Table of Contents
In this Menu, Check Mark "Force use of auto-generated Table of Contents" so that you will keep the Chapter Listings from the original Listings in the EPUB/Mobi.
Nothing more is needed from what I have seen, so press OK.
It will now Process the Book/s you Selected. You can see the Progress by selecting the Bottom Right where it says Jobs and waiting.
When it is done, go to the Calibre Library and take the FB2 Files and place them where you want on your PSP/Vita MemCard.
As for the HTMLZ Files, they are basically just RAR Files containing the Following
Folder/Images/ 2 Cover Image Files
/Cover.jpg
/METADATA.OPF
/STYLE.CSS
and
/index.html <--- Book
Open the HTMLZ File with WinRAR and Extract the Contents in it's own Folder. Basically you will have 1 Folder for each Book with the Contents described.
Take those Folders and place them where you want in your PSP/Vita MemCARD
FB2 Files work with zBookr. They will work with the Normal Version of Bookr, but you will get odd Symbols everywhere for Paragraphs, Quotes, you name it.
HTML Files will work for both, however, you will be VERY low on Memory apparently due to the Cover Image that comes up. In this Case, follow the Error Instructions that come up.
Press Triangle so the Web Options show up
Go over to Tools/Settings/View Settings/
Go down to Conserve Memory and Select ON
It will now go much faster. Suggest doing this from the XMB so hopefully it will stick.
Personally, FB2 Files will be better since you can Rotate them 90 Degrees so that you can view the Books better instead of Landscape Mode.
