Resident Evil Survivor Audio Format by pietastesgood at 3:13 PM EDT on August 15, 2009: Uses .str for music.

However, str seems to be a ps1 video format rather than audio format. How would I go about converting this file to wav?
VGMStream - I found this funny... by jperez2009 at 3:44 PM EDT on August 15, 2009: "in_cube is no longer under development, please do not use it..."

I would stop using it if it actually worked out of the box. x_x

I can only get vgmstream to work if in_cube is installed on Winamp. Is this what was intended for the time being or is this some kind of bug affecting me only? It's happened since I found out about vgmstream and first tried it out. By itself, in older versions, it wouldn't even show up. Now, it shows up but doesn't play anything.

Any help?

VGMToolBox Question by pietastesgood at 2:23 PM EDT on August 16, 2009: What parameters should I enter in VGMToolBox to extract rwav's from a brsar file? The bgm rwav's are my interest. ripping mama doesn't work, it gets errors about 1/3 through the music files, and brsar unpack doesn't work either.

This is the brsar:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=D77DJREW

I'm using the advanced cutter/offset finder.

In search string I enter RWAV. I check Extract files. Search string is at offset 0. Output file extension .rwav. Cut size options -> Use terminator string RBNK.

It starts extracting a whole lot of messed up sized files. 100 megs for a 20 second rwav for example. I think I got the terminator string for rwav wrong.

What can I do to fix this problem? Thanks in advance. :)

Edit: I got it working. However, Ripping Mama detects 8000 sound files, while VGM Toolbox only extracts 3000 files.

Turning off background music in games... by Chocochan at 5:48 AM EDT on August 22, 2009: Hello there everyone.

It was suggested to me by the wonderfully helpful hcs that I come here asking for advice, as I have found little via googling. Is it possible to turn off the background music while playing a Nintendo DS rom? I want to capture some sound effects and voices from Rhythm Tengoku Gold (Rhythm Heaven/Paradise). A rom is the only way I can think of getting the files I need as I don't think I'd ever have the knowledge (or guts) to mess with an original DS card.

I found a dump someone made already, but all the sounds are in pieces and some I don't even know what they are. So I figured why not record them as they come up during gameplay? At least they would be at the right speed and WHOLE. You'll have to forgive me but I have only ever used a DS emulator once, and that was just to record the title screen for Mario Kart DS (for a Mario Kart video I'm making), so I know pretty much nothing about their internals.

If this is possible, the only trouble I'd have is how to play the game without music, unless I play the corresponding MP3 at the same time to keep the rhythm... Please let me know if you can advise anything, and if this IS possible for Wii games too (still thinking of Super Mario Galaxy sound effects, I want those Lumas!), please let me know of what I need to achieve this! Thanks for any help anyone can give.

P.S: For Super Mario Galaxy, I DID try dumpaw, and it was at the least maddening. So much noise! And barely anything to show for it!

Brsar player Wii Channel by jurassicPieter at 1:13 PM EDT on September 11, 2009: I found something out that might make it possible to make a brsar player channel on your wii:
the final fantasy crystal chronicles: my life as a king has lots of *.nut files.
These files are plaintext script files and they also contain initializing game code, including loading graphics, menu's, and the brsar containing the music.

My attempt will be this:
1. remove all scripts which are not sound related.
2. write a new script that says to play a sequence in the brsar.
3. rebuild the wad-file.
4. install the wad file on your wii.

SPSD decoding for mono files glitched by fronzel at 3:23 PM EDT on October 2, 2009: Hi there!

Just wanted to decode some sound files from Shenmue on Dreamcast and the background/ambient sounds in SPSD format work very well, but the speech files get terribly glitched. I think it is because they are mono and vgmstream splits the mono file in 2 parts and puts them on both stereo channels which results in the first and second half of the sound being played at once.
Is there anything i can do to override stereo creation?
SPSD glitched with "old" formats? by fronzel at 11:06 AM EDT on October 3, 2009: Another problem. Not as annoying as the problem with the mono voice files, but i think i still should report it here.

I was browsing through the files of the rare japanese "What's Shenmue" Demo as it contains some interesting stuff that didnt make it into the final game.

I am having problems again with some SPSD files again. They do convert well on first glance but have some huge problems with volume control. As "What's Shenmue" is neither a rwla game (Just a very early demo of Shenmue) nor a very "common" release i have taken the freedom of uploading a sample to make it easier to get what i mean.

http://www.tankraider.com/download/spsdvolumeprob.zip

I really got no idea why thats happening, but my best guess is that as "What's Shenmue" is one of the earliest AM2 Dreamcast releases that they use some earlier version of the SPSD format. It prolly handles volume information a bit different than the "final" SPSD format. At least thats my guess. Again this is no "bother" to me, I'd rather like to get the problem with the mono voice files fixed, but i thought for the sake of completeness i just mention it.

"Game School" (Jaleco) by Lunar at 5:28 PM EDT on October 6, 2009: Until recently, there was an SPC soundtrack on Zophar's Domain listed as "Game School" (Jaleco), however the set was removed because no game with that name exists. Clearly this soundtrack does exist, so I've been trying to find out what game's soundtrack it is.

Here is a link to the soundtrack

I doubt anyone is able to determine the origin of the music by listening alone (though that would be awesome), so I wondered if there was a more scientific approach. kode54 mentioned on IRC that it might be possible by finding a sample in one of the SPCs, noting the first few bytes of it and "binary searching" a GoodSNES set, however I don't know how to, or otherwise have the means, to do any of these things.

Thus, I turn to you guys :D any help or advice would be great.

Breaking XMplay by unknownfile at 10:21 AM EST on November 10, 2009: Because I know some of you are big XMplay fans, I've decided to start attacking the XMplay API.

What I've figured out so far...

XMPlay calls the interface creation function 3 times, each with different versions and providing a function. The prototype for the function is:

__declspec(dllexport) XMPlay_Interface* XMPIN_GetInterface(int version, InitInterfaceCall call);

It isn't required to call this interface to initialize the plugin.

So far, what I have for the interface is:

typedef struct {
INT32 unknown; // This is anything. Leave it 0.
const char* plugin_name; // Name of the plugin

// This one is strange. In xmp-sid.dll, this points to two strings:
// 4 bytes "SID", 0h
// string with file types, separated with slashes
const char* supported_filetypes;

void (*AboutDlg)();
void (*ConfigDlg)();

// rest to be reversed....
} XMPlay_Interface;

Also to note is that some of the official XMplay plugins and the EXE itself are packed using a weird compression format. It's not UPX, and it constantly fucks with IDA, so I am basing these off unofficial plugins.

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. :)

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.

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.

Battlefield 1943 [XBLA] Strange Audio Format by pietastesgood at 10:03 PM EST on December 8, 2009: Hello guys,

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=LVF3BXRJ

Here is the credits theme of Battlefield 1943 for Xbox Live Arcade.

At first glance I thought it would be XMA, since the logo music was XMA. However, I could find FF blocks in the logo music file while I could not find FF blocks in this one.

After doing some research, the credits theme is just over 2 minutes (2:02) - way too short for its file size if it were XMA stereo. I plopped on a surround header, but it did not work either.

It does look slightly reminiscent of a headerless RIFF WAV file, but I'm just basing that off file sizes and the lack of FF blocks in the main audio data.

Could anyone help?

I've had a try with the mandriva one that's floating around the web, but have had no success so far.

Turok Evolution (GameCube ADPCM?) by Alpha23 at 4:45 PM EST on December 13, 2009: Hi everybody! I've stumbled across the files from the GameCube version of Turok: Evolution. They have a custom header which isn't supported by normal SDP players. Here are three of these files: http://www.sendspace.com/file/v979dh
I'm not sure if the whole file is big endian or only the header.

Needed information for a custom header:
interleave short at 0x04
channels short at 0x06
frequency short at 0x12
Fragile: Farewell Ruins of the Moon - Ripping? by Mouser X at 1:53 PM EST on December 14, 2009: So I recently... imported... "Fragile: Farewell Ruins of the Moon" and attempted to rip it. However, most of the files have no file extension. :( I looked at them in a HEX editor, and found numerous files that started with "CAF", "CSF", or "CSL" (there was also "PI?&" and "U.8 -", but there weren't very many of those, and they were small). Any suggestions on this?

Oh, there's also a THP file in the game that VGMstream doesn't play/recognize.

I've uploaded some samples on Meidafire for anyone that wants to take a look.

ManakoAT has already looked at some of these, and says that CSF and CSL appear to be a file system. However, he said that CAF looks promising, as there appears to be coefficients at the start of the file. I've also included 2 "index.bin" files, in case they're useful.

So, if anyone wants to give them a look (the THP particularly? Maybe it's silent?), please feel free to do so. Mouser X over and out.
Problems with SPC Amp by Dubble at 12:12 AM EST on December 17, 2009: I hope I'm not being a bother but I have no idea who to ask about this.

So, for whatever reason, I can't edit extended or ID666 tags in SPCAmp anymore. I used to be able to but I don't know what's changed. I wanted to edit some fadeouts on some files I've had sitting around and now I can't do anything.

I've tried uninstalling SPCAmp, uninstalling Winamp, tried a multitude of SPC files to see if it was just the ones I was messing with and nothing. It's driving me crazy.

The extended tag check box is muted out so I can't mess with it and I can't type anything in the fields either - numbers or letters. I've flipped and flopped all kinds of switches to see if I can get it turned back on with no luck. Does anyone here have any idea what may be the problem?
Donkey Kong Barrel Blast jingles by agu fungus at 1:05 AM EST on December 18, 2009: I have a question, how do I rip the track intros from DK Barrel Blast? You know, the fanfares that play before every track. The 'bgm' folder does not contain them, so I assume they're in the 'se' folder. What I found are these files:

se_grp_sejingle_j000.WVD
se_grp_sejingle_j001.WVD
se_grp_sejingle_j002.WVD
se_grp_sejingle_j003.WVD
se_grp_sejingle_j004.WVD
se_grp_sejingle_j005.WVD
se_grp_sejingle_j006.WVD
se_grp_sejingle_j007.WVD

If these files contain the jingles I'm talking about, how do I extract them from these files?
Winamp 5.57 by Hotcakes at 3:49 AM EST on December 20, 2009: Am I the only one having trouble with vgmstream and Winamp 5.57? It is no longer showing up in the plugins list. I reinstalled a fresh copy of Winamp instead of installing over the old directory, to no avail. the libvorbis.dll and libmpeg12whatever.dll is in the Winamp directory. Also having trouble with another plugin that is very old (in_med.dll), but not with another (in_sk00l.dll).

Has anyone else upgraded to 5.57?

EDIT: Should mention I have also tried the most recent vgmstream I could find, 721.

Newer version of VGMTrans by muhgru at 1:56 AM EST on December 24, 2009: Anybody notice this? Apparently this has support for some new formats, including FFT and the generic PS2 driver. Looks like it also accepts some cps2 roms too. And there's source code.

Attached is a sample from a 750MB+ .sns file which contains over 13,000 RIFF header files. It seems that Ubisoft have used something to do with 'LyN' (can be seen in the chunk header' and i've found a couple of related files in the disc.

Can anyone make sense of this file and therefore how to play it? I've made sense of what I can of the header as shown below.

Merry Christmas 2009! by Mouser X at 2:53 PM EST on December 25, 2009: Merry Christmas to all! I don't know if anyone is checking the forums today, but I figured I'd give out some holiday cheer, in case anyone does happen to stop by.

So, how was everyone's holiday (for those that celebrate such things)? I wasn't expecting much this year (I don't have a job for one thing), but I did get a nifty t-shirt, and a CD I've been wanting for two years. Anyone else get anything cool?

Oh, and JoshW gave all of us those wonderful Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy 6 PSX rips. Awesome job JoshW! Mouser X over.

Mario Golf (64) Introduction? by TheUltimateKoopa at 8:33 PM EST on January 5, 2010: I've watched loads of videos on YouTube of the intro to MArio Golf, as well as listened to the USF rip, and it is totally different to the one I remember from the actual game. Is it possible to get the PAL/European (or whatever it is) version?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXLkxCtvYIE
That's the version that's in the USF, however, here's a MIDI (Dentelle's) of the other version.

NFL 2K1 - Dreamcast SS File? by TheUnderdog at 4:26 PM EST on January 6, 2010: Greetings, HCS Forum.

You guys have quite the reputation of decoding many gaming audio formats, so I've come to you with a strange music file that cannot be played properly.

http://stashbox.org/v/760921/MENULOOP.SS

This is a looping menu theme from NFL 2K1 for the Sega Dreamcast.

If you attempt to listen to it as a Dialogic ADPCM (Vox) file in an audio editor such as Goldwave or Audacity, you can hear the music but it skips and stutters. The volume fluctuates, too.

If it helps any, the game also has IFF format audio files for player and commentator voices.

Is this an obscure audio format? Or is it possible that it's actually a more common format but SEGA/2K Sports renamed the filetype for whatever reason?

Thank you very much for reading. Hopefully this audio file can be figured out.
Oddities between auCDtect and most vgmstreams by jonai at 6:31 AM EST on January 7, 2010: Hello,

do you know the tool auCDtect??
It is a command line tool to detect if a audio source was encoded lossy (ie. mp3 compression) or lossless.

Until now it was quite handy for me to verify my own CD-Audio rips and to find out if some official game-soundtrack cd's are encoded from lesser quality source material.

So I wanted to test it just for fun with my vgmstream ADX rips of 'The King of Fighters XI'.
I expected that the ADX files would have a high percentage of probability that they are lossy encoded, because from what I understand ADX is a lossy format.
So imagine my amazement when I found out that AuCDtect says in its logs that almost all of the tested tracks should be 100% or 99% probably correct lossless CDA tracks.
So now I wanted to know more and I tested some crappy (in terms of sound quality not in terms of quality of the content...) tracks from the 'Sin and Punishment 2' tracks, with the same result.
Just to verify this: auCDtect can verify lossy tracks, If I encode anything to mp3 and test the tracs.

What I wanted to know is something about the quality of the inner workings of ADX and ADPCM, because this would mean that they work in another way then mp3 and/or are of higher quality than other lossy formats (or that the detection is broken for formats like ADX...).
Also I would want to know If you could produce similar results with your vgm-stream rips.

Maybe you can bring me some enlightenment of the inner workings of ADX and ADPCM, because Wikipedia was not very helpful in this topic.

fare well until then.

N64 debuggering by Parasyte at 8:34 PM EST on January 7, 2010: Greetings, on this fine new year of 20XX!

First, allow me to introduce myself, since this is going to be a bit of a mysterious thread, anyway. I go by "Parasyte" online, particularly in certain video game hacking communities. I've authored some important tools that make video game hacking more accessible, or just plain better. Some examples of these tools are listed below:

* GCNrd; GameCube Remote Debugger, a set of programs that allow low-level debugging of commercial GCN games using the broadband adapter.

* FCEUd; A fork of the FCEU emulator which adds a low-level debugger and simplified cheat console. It has been superseded by many following forks of the FCEU code base; most recently, FCEUX.

* GCNcrypt/MAXcrypt; two separate programs which can encrypt and decrypt Action Replay codes for GameCube and PS2, respectively.

I have also done a handful of [decidedly pretty bad] USF rips. I believe Mario Kart 64 is my most famous rip. Now, back when I was doing these USF rips, I was stuck with the same basic tools that everyone else was using. And for some reason, I get the feeling that the situation hasn't changed much even now, a little over 5 years after initially ripping that USF.

One project I started working on around the same time (and not listed above, for reasons which will be made obvious shortly) was adding a debugger to Mupen64. Mupen64 already had a debugger at that time, available in the GTK+ UI build. But it didn't have any of the features that I needed; things like breakpoints/watchpoints, a memory editor... The features that I associate with low-level debuggers.

The "Mupen64d" project never really got beyond the state that breakpoints were working; there was no usable UI for it. I halted work on the project to focus on a related project which would help alleviate some of the problems I was running into. My biggest concern was being forced to write Yet Another debugger UI. I already did that once with FCEUd. Wouldn't it be nice to write a UI once, and then use it everywhere? Sure, you might have to change a few things between different video game consoles, but the basics of the UI would always remain the same.

This all eventually led to an idea I'm calling the "Scalable Remote Debugger Protocol" SRDP. Its focus is on making debugger interfaces which are disconnected from the emulator or game console that you would be hacking. In effect, you will always be debugging remotely; outside of the emulated/real console.

SRDP is actually a fairly large topic of discussion, and I cannot squeeze all of the information into a single post. But I do have some resources available, if you are interested in some further reading:

* The post that started it all
* About the debugger UI I intend to create using SRDP
* About the protocol

TL;DR: I want to make the best N64 debugger ever. Would you like to have one too? I am looking for help, and I can explain exactly how you can be of assistance if interested. Please read the references above (yes, they are incredibly long) and respond here to voice your interest!

Thanks, and I hope we can all collaborate to accomplish something great. :)

audacious 2.2 by gw666 at 5:23 AM EST on January 8, 2010: Hi everyone,

the audacious plugin of vgmstream r722 does not build with audacious 2.2. It includes the removed header file audacious/strings.h. If you remove this include from unix/main.c, you'll still see this error mesage:

data.c:234: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type
data.c:240: error: unknown field 'get_song_info' specified in initializer
data.c:240: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type
data.c:243: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type

It must be ported to the new audacious 2.2 API.

Army Of Two 40th Day Qvorbs WWise format by OrangeC at 7:37 AM EST on January 9, 2010: I thought the ww2ogg tool would support the qvorbs from ao2 but i was wrong, it might need to be updated because of different headers or somethings in the header. other files in the game use xma wwise which is easy to decode.

anyway hcs here is the first of the several qvorb files.

A "problem" with .SPC files by Koto at 1:00 PM EST on January 9, 2010: Well, maybe isn't a problems instead, but it dislikes me too much. I found that the SPC files begins to play at a high sound level, but when the song loops, the sound is less strong. There's some configuration in SNESAMP plugin to avoid this? I want the all song with the same sound level (Doesn't matter if is the strong or the weak, but I hate that change).

Thanks

See ya

64th note issue by icewolf762 at 6:18 PM EST on January 10, 2010: Hi chaps. When playing certain tracks from games (most notibly the 2 Zelda games on the N64), they music is being played back slowly, compared to listening to the music in-game.

Is this a fault with 64th Note, or is there a setting I'm missing.

Thanks in advance.

PS. If this is known, please forgive me.
Brsar tools by jurassicPieter at 7:54 PM EST on January 10, 2010: I started working (many projects I work on I know) on a brsar tool program. Hopefully i can figure out the format. It seems the sdat format specs on kiwi.ds are very useful, since there are so many similarities being the biggest difference their endianness.

See screenshot:
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?utnjzkkbmg3

Every tab has a list of all entries in the brsar. Now the SYMB chunk and the FILE chunk are taken care of.
ripping_mama and brsas_unpack doesn't work by Snacks at 7:52 PM EST on January 11, 2010: I'm trying to rip the soundtrack for a Wii game called Animal Crossing: City Folk.

I got the brsas file with all the sounds in it. When I drag and drop it onto the application brsas_unpack, it skips every single sound in the file. Nothing is unpacked.

Same goes for ripping_mama. Help?

About Goldeneye's USFs by TheUltimateKoopa at 6:39 PM EST on January 14, 2010: Particularly the Depot stage. You know that Marimba sounding instrument that just plays the same notes over and over, in the background? It's the VERY first thing you hear in the tune. Anyway, what I was confused about was the fact that that part seems to come on at random times. Like for example it's at the start of the first loop, but not at the start of the second loop but appears halfway through the loop. I got to about 18 minutes (<_<), and still failed to find a part where it truly loops 100%. It's odd but does anyone know why this is?
Mario Golf PAL Introduction? by TheUltimateKoopa at 1:05 AM EST on January 15, 2010: Can anyone rip the European version of the Mario Golf 64 Intro theme?

Looking for specific Syndicate mp3s by nensondubois at 11:45 AM EST on January 16, 2010: There were about 12 or so ambient songs in .mp3 from this specific Syndicate (I don't remember the name or what system it was on) game in the streamed database and I can't seem to find it now. I think it was Syndicate Wars. Can someone point it out for me? Thanks.
in_gbs.dll in Winamp? by TheUltimateKoopa at 8:43 PM EST on January 16, 2010: Does anyone know why in_gbs.dll simply, does not work in Winamp? (Or is it just me?) When ever I use it, and play a GBS, it seems to play about a small fraction of a second of the tune, repeatedly, going down in pitch, as if, like the power is turned off on a vacuum cleaner, the motor quickly decreases in pitch, pretty much the same kind of thing. I even uninstalled NEZPlug to make sure there weren't any conflicting plugins, but I still had this problem.

Ripping from Game Cube ISOs? by TheUltimateKoopa at 11:13 PM EST on January 20, 2010: How do you rip from GameCube ISOs? I'm able to do Wii ISOs, using WiiScrubber, or whatever. Does anyone know a good program that's easy to use that I can use to rip streams from GameCube ISOs?
Columns (Genesis) by TheUltimateKoopa at 10:27 AM EST on January 23, 2010: Is it possible to get the 'missing' tunes from the game that play like when you're at a higher level, or something? For example, I was playing the game, and had Clotho as the BGM, as that's the default, and when I got to Level 7, the instruments changed to a harp-like sound, and then a different tune started playing. I'm sure you've heard that tune.

Watch this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7A-Bm3dSbo
Around 1:24 the instruments change
At 2:32 the tune changes completely
Around 2:58 the tune returns to normal
At 4:35 it goes back to that fastish melody

I'm assuming a similar thing happens if you select Lathesis or Atropos as the BGM.

Odd Problems by Elven Spellmaker at 3:29 PM EST on January 24, 2010: Hi,

I got a machine last year, which of course had Vista. Now Vista works fine for me in most cases (Except that it decides it can't hibernate without freezing on wakeup -.-), but without a Hardware Direct Sound, the 8channel file from Mario Kart Wii wouldn't play. So, I switched output plugin to Winamp OpenAL Output Plug-in.

My old SoundCard (SoundBlaster Live! Digital [And the Value Dell version too]) don't work on Vista, as Creative said, they want to FORCE people to buy new sound cards...

Basically the plugin, allows me to get the full hardware support that a chip has. (Yes, I'm still using the internal chip, so its obviously not going to be great) however it allows me to play this 8channel file.

It only supports 8 and 16bit output, which is fine, as I've never heard a difference between 16 and 24bit or 32bit.

SNESAmp works, but if I change the Sample rate to 192,000Hz, the files play slowly and transposed down. All the other options have NO effect on the sound, its odd that one does.

Also I can't seek properly in VGMStream files. Seeking takes a large amount of time, about 2 minutes to move 1 second.

I assume these are problems with the output plugin and nothing to do with VGMStream or SNESAmp, but I'd just like to check.

Thanks.
Mario Kart DS tags. by TheUltimateKoopa at 6:57 PM EST on January 24, 2010: OK, so I decided to tag the 2SF rip. I managed to do most of them, but there's some I'm not sure about. The one's I'm not sure about is 0005 (that's NTR-AMCE-USA-0005), which is a kind of variation of the Options screen (which is 0004). The others are 0035, 0036, 0037, 003b, 003c, 003f, 0040, 0041, 0044, 0047 and 0048. A majority of these are win/lose fanfares, and results for winning or losing in various modes but I'm not sure which is which.
Odd Video File (*.sfd) by pietastesgood at 11:54 PM EST on January 28, 2010: Hi,

Bayonetta x360 utilizes the sfd codec for its fmv's. Most of these convert fine with sfd2mpg, however a few of them do not. Here is one of them:

I can't seem to find out why, plus the GUI version, which I had downloaded before and was working, doesn't work anymore...

I have tried both the GUI and CMD versions.

Could someone take a look at this one?

Much appreciated and thanks in advance. ;)
PSP rips by icewolf762 at 12:01 PM EST on January 31, 2010: Greetings folks. I'm trying to find streams of PSP games "Final Fantasy I" and "Dissidia: Final Fantasy". I've looked around the forums but the only links to these are dead. Anyone know where else I can get these from?

Cheers.

P.N.03 (GameCube) by the_miker at 12:49 AM EST on February 1, 2010: This game has four files in it's bgm directory, two "bkr" files and two "sbb" files. I tried playing with the sbb files in vgmtoolbox (GENH Creator) and vgmstream with no luck.

I think they use a similar format to RE4 but I can't say for sure. I uploaded all four files in one zip. Can some of you take a look and maybe figure out how to get the tunes? I'm almost 100% sure it's in the Nintendo GameCube DSP 4-bit ADPCM format. The zip is only 92mb btw. Thanks :)

Help with SSF files : sequences with multiple tone banks. by caius at 10:59 AM EST on February 1, 2010: Hi all,
I'm starting to rip .SSF file form Sega Saturn ISOS (I have more than 1400 ISOS..), sometimes I do this manually, some times I use the great VGMToolbox.
Now I'm stuck because I have found sequences file that use multiple tone banks .
How can i solve this problem? I read in ssfmake.py:

"NOTE: The script is really only set up to handle a single bank of tone data (matching the sequence bank).
# Some games contain sequences that reference multiple tone banks. To handle these, the script
# needs to be run multiple times (each time with a different tone data file and bank #). Each time
# script is run, a file named 68000ram.bin will be dumped out. This is a 512K file that corresponds
# to sound memory. For additional runs, just set the driver file name to this file ('68000ram.bin')
# as well as setting the corresponding bank numbers and tone data files, leaving the other file name
# parameters blank. Finally, the last pass of the script needs to have the bank number set to the
# desired sequence bank since the script always writes this value into the SEQUENCE_START command."

But I don't understand how to proceed, which parameters I have to put in ssfmake.py.For example I found this .SEQ that uses TWO banks of samples (I include also the driver):

Could someone put me in right direction?
Knurek, where are you (remember, you helped me one year ago..)?
Thanks in advance.

Running vgmstream test.exe via wine and php? by furrybob at 4:13 PM EST on February 3, 2010: I'm trying to have my webserver run the vgmstream command line in wine to convert audio files to wav format. However, when I do exec('wine text.exe "/path/file" -o "path/file.wav"');. It creates about 1000 samples of a flat wave in the right channel at the loop point like it did here: http://38.108.124.89/convert/Misty_Lake.ogg (replace the ogg with wav to get the original) This is the Misty Lake adx from Sonic and the Black Knight.
If I run the command from the command line it converts like it should. And if i run it with php on a windows web server it works just fine.

Does anybody have any clue as to why it wouldn't be working when run with php?
