Sounds - All

can you please share guide how to rip audio languages for each one?

I have found all Language files including all Sound Files
for each language there are 161 sound files 250mb per language (Total 9 languages with english)
so it can be further reduced to 16GB total for one language.

I am Waiting for Zee to complete a tool that can automate the process since i do it by hand :P

feel free to share if any tool that can find a duplicate and replace with zero bytes exist
