The "dlz_unpack.exe" file its works?? Required special commands or any from decompression natively packed any data in used dlz_x86/64 executables without FreeArc? (aka ex: Bink_(un)pack or oggre_enc/dec...) Tested from Win XP x32 and Win7 SP1 x64 and crashing now. The CLS filter its works with FreeArc/Unarc usage.

Have you removed audio tracks from video files?

Example:

ffmpeg -i "F:\Injustice 2\Movies\DC2_028_035.scx.mp4" -map 0:0 -map 0:1 -acodec copy -vcodec copy DC2_028_035.scx.mp4

Leave only english audio track in video.

XVID4PSP v7 for batch cutting audio tracks without conversion...For example


*.scx - 12.2 gb => 9.4 gb

Why not just use ffmpeg? It's basically the same and you didn't need to install anything. Finished in around 5 minutes for all videos (removed 5 audio tracks, only leave english audio).

9.4GB, no quality loss in video/audio.

However, result for complete game is 34.4GB (oodle+srep+lzma for *.xxx + *.tfc files, m0 for processed video files and the rest just srep+lzma). You will get better size with lolz but this will basically took forever and I have not the time to do it nor I am in the mood to do it.

Ну хотя бы потому что bat-файл для ffmpeg слишком долго создавать..

Качество не теряется, потому что, как я писал, перекодирования видеопотока нет. На всю процедуру ушло минут 15.. А на написание батника ушел бы примерно час..И какая выгода от него?)

А как насчет времени распаковки? Без poodle игра жмется до 37 гб с помощью lzma2 и ставится за 10 минут...Так что не вижу смысла терзаться из-за 2,5 гб
