SquareTex: If you like ADX, you should give LOGG a try. It's very easy to add the loop data because it's stored in the OGG tags (similar to how MP3s have the ID3 tags). In other words, you don't have to encode/transcode to OGG/ADX just to add loop points. In VGMstream, HCS has even included an argument that outputs "oggenc.exe" compatible syntax so that you can easily transcode between various formats. It works great.
Anyway, as far as streamed game audio goes, ADX is the closest thing to MP3 you'll find. It's a format that is used on every console, and is easy to work with. It's even licensed, just like the MP3 format. :P But since developers apparently like to re-invent the wheel when they develop the audio format for their game, you still see a lot of variations, alterations, and custom formats. Maybe they don't want to pay the license fees? Mouser X over and out.
Just a thought ;-)

I'm sorry ^^
But I still can't tell what you were saying. Are you talking about looped OGG or ADX? Do you mean to say that you must give the loop points in samples, rather than time, which applies to both? What was your point?
Try putting a Hyper SF2 ADX into Super SF2 Turbo for the Dreamcast, and (assuming you rehacked the 1st_read.bin properly so as not to trigger a funky demo mode) you'll find that the music refuses to loop, even though it's supposed to.
On the other hand, if this could be used to make two identical ADXes (one in v4, the other v3), perhaps it can be useful in creating an automated downgrader?
Note: Yes, I would like to use the CPS1 and Arranged music in SSF2T on the DC, but it uses v3, and Hyper uses v4, and I REALLY don't wanna go through all those files and reloop them.
