Reasing files on an ISO
 

Ok, I DO own an original copy of Super Smash Brothers Melee. I really liked the intro and wanted to encode it into a xvid file I can watch on my pc. I downloaded the iso (which should be legal since I own the original) and attempted to read this file in Isobuster, but nothing came up. Is there any way to view the files in a gc iso? I dont care about running the game, I just want to extract the movies.

hmm i dunno if downloadin a copy of the game, even though u do own it is legal..
cuz it still is gettin a pirated copy from some illegal place...
but the movie files could me at some weird extension like .zsa
for example

My problem is I cannot SEE any files on the cd image, all the image extraction tools just list it as Track1, any ideas? finding the movie files shoudlent be a problem if I can just see the files on the cd image.

You guys are gonna have to hold off the talk on this until we are able to back up our own GC Games.



Tyler!

yea
i figured that itd be pirating..
in a lil time
well see

I see, I thaught it would be legal to download an iso if you already own the game but guess not

Oh well, youre the mod, ill ask again when/if its possible to backup a game from home

i dont think so
because its getting it from an illegal place
but go figure

there is a tool that allows you to extract files from gcm images (GC Image Splitter v0.4)

You can get it from here:

wooah
awesome

Ok, I tried it and found out that so far all GC games seem to store movies in the SFD format, the SAME FORMAT DREAMCAST USES.

So I attempted extracting them and using the DC encoding tools on them, mixed results.

Some games movies encoded PERFECTLY, some games had a lot of colored boxes and artifacts over the movies.

Sigh, oh well, at least it works for some games. I wonder why the others encode so weirdly though, you can still sorta make out the actual video behind the gardadge if you look closely, but I wonder why the gardbage is there in the first place.

some games is better than none
