Enhancement request: Support for Karaoke CDG files (MP3+G)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Share a CDG/MP3 file set on the media server
2. Browse for the file in the XMB under Videos.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The CDG file should appear and be playable, but it's not listed.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.10.51 on XP Home.

If you are transcoding a media file, which engine are you using (mencoder,
avisynth/mencoder, tsmuxer?)
Everything on default settings.

Am currently using the filter for CDG files at
http://karaoke-dx.sourceforge.net/. Works fine on Windows Media Player.

Thanks!

I've been thinking...

I'm quite sure all these special file formats are playable via 
AviSynth/Mencoder, so
all it should take is to expose the special file formats on the XMB.

Perhaps PS3MS can have options to allow what additional file extensions that 
can be
seen on the XMB for Videos/Audio/etc.

Personally, and specifically, I want to allow .zip files to appear under 
Videos. I
use the karaoke-dx filter above which includes an unzip filter which processes 
the
zip file and its contents and displays a rendering in WMP. I'm assuming if it 
works
with WMP, it works with AviSynth.

Thanks.

PS: I'm now running 1.11.335 on Windows 7 RC 64-bit. JRE 6u13 32 and 64 both
installed but 32 is being used.

I tried something: I added a .avi extension after the zip extension (e.g.
test.zip.avi) and it played using AviSynth/Mencoder.

There's sync issues, but it's surely a filter problem.

I've been looking at this a bit as of late and plan on having a proper go at it 
when I have more time at my hands.

I got mplayer (on linux PC) to run the CDG file with sound by using the 
-audiofile option.
EX: mplayer -audiofile karaoke.mp3 karaoke.cdg
For some reason playing the CDG file on it's own made it sometime stop after 
the initial intro bit but when playing it with the audio this never happened, 
might have just been something with my machine though.

Anyways, this shouldn't be too difficult to send to the PS3 I believe. For 
adding the extra filetype CDG it would probably doing the same kind of checking 
for an associative mp3/audio file as the currently implemented process of 
matching srt subtitles with video files.

Was looking through the source files quickly for adding the file extension but 
couldn't properly identify where the srt/video matchup process takes place. 
Should someone be kind enough to point this out to me it would be much 
appreciated :)
