They need to be in MP4 format.

Use a video converter, or use PSP Video 9.

Here's a guide from PSP Maniac that explains everything:

Many of the questions on here have been dealing with not having a folder on the removable drive of the PSP. So, here's what you do.
FORMAT YOUR MEMORY STICK.
Before formatting your memory stick, you'll want to move everything out of the removable drive and place it on your Desktop because formatting your memory stick erases EVERYTHING from the removable drive.
To format your memory stick: On your PSP, go to System Settings-Format Memory Stick. After you have formatted your memory stick, the folders you need for the PSP have been made. If the video folder (MP_ROOT) hasn't been made then that's due to you not having Firmware 2.0 or above because with 2.0 or above, the folder is created automatically.
If you don't have the video folder: Go to the removable drive of the PSP on your computer and create a folder (Right-click mouse and go to File-New-Folder). The folder goes right next to the PSP folder. Name the folder: MP_ROOT (the name being all in caps) and in the MP_ROOT folder, create a folder and name it 100MNV01. The 100MNV01 folder is where you store your .MP4 videos. To be able to use the new codec: AVC, you will need at least Firmware 2.0 and the folder should be created for you after you format your memory stick once you have Firmware 2.0 and above. If the AVC folder isn't created, create a folder in the MP_ROOT folder, named:100ANV01.
MP_ROOT-100MNV01 (.MP4)
MP_ROOT-100ANV01 (AVC)
The .MP4 video is to be named: M4Vxxxxx.MP4 where xxxxx is number (example M4V00001.MP4).
The AVC video is to be named: MAQxxxxx.MP4 where xxxxx is number (example MAQ00001.MP4).

New for 2.8:
There is now a VIDEO folder on the root of the memory stick.  You can just put your SP mp4 movies here.  The AVC mp4s still need to go in the other folder though.  There is also a MUSIC folder at the root.

Program to use to convert your videos to .MP4 or AVC:
PSP Video 9 http://pspvideo9.com/
3GP Converter http://www.nurs.or.jp/%7Ecalcium/3gpp/ (Yes, the website isn't in English.) Current version: 0.34

If you want to play movies on your PSP, try this program:

http://www.pqdvd.com/psp/

It's easy to use and free. You can set the start point of the movie, and even change the file size of the movie, by choosing between higher and lower quality, you can enhance the sound too. When you DL just open the program, then press the open tab on the program and select witch video to convert. The movie will start, so just pause it, change the start point to the start of the movie and press the record it tab.

After converting the file, you click the "PSP Video Transfer" tab in the upper right corner. Here you will get a page split in half. On the left side are the files that are ready to be transferred. The right side belongs to your PSP memory stick. Just drag the file from the left side and over to the right side...and your done! This only works for movies DL'd off the internet, like from gamespot, gametrailers or...other sources.
