most accurate .gbs player? hardware .gbs player? by bucky at 5:24 AM EST on November 19, 2009
Hey there!

First off, I was wondering if anyone could weigh in on what are some of the most accurate .gbs players. Is there a consensus on this?

Without having the hardware to compare, I've been especially in the dark. For a while I was using in_gbs (Meridian GBS Player v0.3.1). Asides from freezing on some tracks, I've since been informed of the wave channel being practically half volume of where it should be (at least in some .gbs files), and I believe there's another issue with noise being too loud at higher pitches?

I've tried out the standalone version of nezplay (same thing as nezplug++?). Using a couple reference tracks that I've been able to come across, I can hear that it sounds like its much more accurate. Just thought I'd ask incase there's anything else out there I should be aware of.

Second question, is there a possibility of seeing a .gbs player for the game boy? Is there one already? Some sort of equivalent to playing nsfs off the NES powerpak would be ace. :)

Extracting audio from Wii banners by agu fungus at 12:04 AM EST on November 20, 2009
Is there a way to extract audio from Wii banners (opening.bnr, if I'm not mistaken) from any game to play it in vgmstream?
MDSF: When/If? by Richter X at 7:42 PM EST on November 22, 2009
The MDSF ripped Sega Genesis music format doesn't seem to have been touched since 2007. Does anyone have any news on it? It seems like an awfully long time to not have any progress on.
XMA Encoder is out. by OrangeC at 10:20 PM EST on November 28, 2009
http://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=3020&start=15

However it seems to be picky which XMA files seems to want to decode, so far i cannot decode ay XMA2 multichannel files or custom xma header files, seems to only want to decode RIFF regular xma files.

it says to support XMA2, so any helpful people want to lend a hand with this?
RIFX Ogg vorbis file by OrangeC at 1:16 PM EST on November 30, 2009
I have a file here that seems to be a vorbis format but has a rifx header, is this mixed wav/ogg hybrid or something because i cannot get it to decode.

It is from assassins creed 2 360.

64-bit Winamp Plugins: USF, etc.? by YoshiBob SP at 3:53 PM EST on November 30, 2009
Hi. I'm new to the forum, so please pardon my status as a newb. I really don't know if my etiquette is acceptable or not. :~(

My curiosity does not know where to go, so I'm not sure if this is the place to ask or not. I am sorry in advance if I'm in the wrong place.

But anyhow, does anyone know if Winamp plug-ins such as 64th Note and other such plug-ins used for playback of video game music formats (SPC, USF, NSF, GBS, etc.) can be used on, say a 64-bit version of Windows 7, for example? I probably should have questioned elsewhere if Winamp or foobar2000 work in 64-bit environments.
I don't have Windows 7, but am considering getting a laptop with Windows 7.

Anyway, if you have any familiarity with trying to use these programs in new environments, I would be very grateful! I enjoy Video Game Music very much.

I am curious whether or not these programs and plug-ins work very well in a 64-bit environment.

Thanks for reading. :)

P.S. Fill me in on how to be more formal in this forum, please. I haven't posted in a forum in several years. Sorry this is so darn long.
The Beatles: Rock Band Multitrack .bik files by blitzbob at 5:54 PM EST on November 30, 2009
I've been trying for the past couple of days to crack the encryption on this file:

Hey Bulldog (Encrypted .bik) http://www.mediafire.com/?mqmznzznzim

What this is, is a .bik file normally used for videos but on Rock Band and Guitar Hero games, multitrack audio. Guitar, Bass, Drums, Vocals, and everything else completely separated.

You would normally use Rad Video Tools (google it) to convert them to wav but it seems they've encrypted them. There is an extra 56-byte header, that when I remove I'm able to view the channels, but as I go to convert it to wav it crashes.

If anyone cracks em you'll have the studio master tapes to 45 Beatles songs, plus various RB2 DLC and whatever else comes along.
Harvest Moon 64 USF set tagged/timed by 108 at 3:13 AM EST on December 1, 2009
I've tagged and timed the Harvest Moon 64 USF set, if anyone's interested. There was one song that I couldn't identify (nor could anyone else I asked), even after I had played through the game again, so I just left it as "Unknown". Hopefully, that's all right.

Audacious plugin building broken with Audacious 2.2 by Blue Ion at 5:34 PM EST on December 1, 2009
Well, I'm using OpenSuse 11.2 and trying to build the plugin fails with a couple errors, though I've managed to get it to compile by viciously hacking the vgmstrean sources.

The first ones, a missing "audacious/string.h" in main.c and vfs.c are no longer needed (apparently) since removing it seemed harmless.

The second is this error:

data.c:194: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type
data.c:200: error: unknown field ‘get_song_info’ specified in initializer
data.c:200: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type
data.c:203: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type

It seems later audacious have changed the api of the song data using get_song_tuple instead of get_song_info.
I'm not sure anyway, to get around this error (and prevent audacious from segfaulting)I've just return a clean "tuple" from get_song_info.

Obviously I get no actual titles, and I've lost the ability to seek (probably related to
** (audacious2:20364): WARNING **: Plugin /usr/lib/audacious/Input/libvgmstream.so (#0) failed to use InputPlayback::set_tuple for a length/title adjustment.
in the console)

But songs plays which is what matters :D

To avoid embarrasing myself (even more at least), I've checked out the latest svn revision 717 in case it was already fixed, but it's not.
