[Feature Request] Add bcwav support #15

Closed CCF100 closed 5 months ago

CCF100 commented 7 years ago

I'm trying to create a 3ds theme, and I need to convert to a bcwav file.

libertyernie commented 6 years ago

Are there any command-line programs that can do this?

If I tried to implement bcwav myself I'd probably mess it up - I'd rather have LoopingAudioConverter use an existing program (like it does for .vgm) or wait for VGAudio to implement .bcwav output support.

I have tried to do it with an rstmcpp fork, but it doesn't work so well with multiple channels. It appears to have something to do with how the bcwav channel info is stored. The closest I've come to it is the first channel appears normal, but the second one is offset. Unfortunately, I don't really have much knowledge of audio programming, so maybe someone who does will have an easier time with that. There's also an Audacity fork that does .bcwav files, but I haven't gotten much out of it.

@libertyernie Okay, I fixed it, and you can now properly convert multi channel wav files. You can use it if you'd like. I merged it into master on my fork.

Nice! I'll see if I can port the code to C#, and if not I can also just include rstmcpp.exe with the app.

libertyernie commented 5 years ago

This ought to work (at least on Windows): https://github.com/libertyernie/LoopingAudioConverter/releases/tag/v2.3.1-rstmcpp

C++/CLI was the easiest way to get something working quickly.

Algorithmus commented 5 years ago

rstmcpp should work on Linux at least; that's what I've been developing it on.

libertyernie commented 5 years ago

I figured. C++/CLI might not work, though. For the next version I'll probably compile rstmcpp into a separate executable and put it in the tools folder, like I do with vgmstream.

Make sure to include the exact wording of any error you're getting, which settings you're using when converting audio (if applicable), and - if possible - a link to the file you're using as input.
