Hello all forum members.
Anyone tried to encoded movies in .usm format?(Batman Arkham City,Witcher2)
I was searching in google about this format and i found ScaleForm Encoder
evrything fine but this tool can only encode from .usm to .avi :(
no support for avi. to.usm
Anyone have any ideas,solution or maybe another tool?
With compression .usm movies smaller size will be:D

found on another forum about USM video files, but mentioned directly witcher2 & deus ex human revolution USM video files......



Finally able to correctly convert USM file without any artifacts.

01. Demux USM file using VGMToolbox.
>>>> This will produce multiple files depending upon which USM file used.
>>>> One file will be the video file in M2V format.
>>>> One audio file containing music only.
>>>> Other will be audio files containing spoken languages. English, spanish,...
2A. Convert Video (M2V file) using Mediacoder
2B. Convert ADX Audio files (Mediacoder will do this also)
03. Remux files (MP4boxer or mkvmerge or whatever is your preference.)

I have tested this on serveral Witcher 2 USM files and the conversion process works without any artifacts.

Special thanks to all the developers for their great effort here.

Sorry to revive an old topic, this thread talks about how to encode video to usm, seeking Otherwise, how to decode video .usm normal for playback on the PC video, it happens that I have unpacked the file usm 2 programs (usm_deinterleave and VGMToolbox), with the first 2 files unpacks me a .mpg video format and audio .adx, with the second unpack my .m2v video and audio .adx same, what I really want is how to convert the video (not I'm interested in audio) to a normal format for PC as I said before, because when you play the video with 2 extensions on the PC, looks like this:

just use ffmpeg to combine multiple files into one and yes! it is playable on pc. Just take a look at this tutorial https://www.y o u t u b e.com/watch?v=uNnZCewq74U and I hope that helped you in way. If it does, let me know... just message me. and if interested in audio you should use adx to wav converter which is used my PES game modding groups... download link is at he bottom of the message and you'll find it helpful for sure. If you want to repack it to .usm again you need to get a software called scaleform link is at the bottom of the message . This software works for batman arkham city too...(sorry for my bad english)

ADX to WAV : http://www.mediafire.com/download/u25x1vqryyeooxz/PES+Sound+File+Converter+1.8.rar

Scaleform : http://www.mediafire.com/download/gjk1ya43ixgx85u/Scaleform+VideoEncoder.zip

EDIT by Grumpy: Youtube links don't show up properly so I have edited the URL above so you can all see the link, clicking the link wont work but just copy and paste into a Browsers address bar and remove the spaces from 'youtube'. It will then show you the correct Tutorial. ;)

Did you ever figure out how to get around this issue? I'm encountering the same issue with ever .adx conversion for many files.

Not sure how this thread survived so long on the wrong section of the forum, I have now moved it to the correct sub-forum.

UPDATE: Nevermind the error I posted was due to incorrect inputs, I'm fairly sure I've got encoding the audio and video down now! Results are very promising!
