GSH do you think in pb51.3 you think you could add the bz2 music to play without the cd?

I think he's talking about the in-game music that's stored as audio tracks on the BZ2 CD.

Doesnt sound feasable, one would have to rip the tracks to OGG, and that would make the PB3 installer by several megabytes (like over 35, for half-decent sound quality).

You can self-rip the BZ2 CD tracks to .ogg, name them correctly, and place them under the addon folder, and they're used in 1.3pb4/pb4a. Read the changelog.txt, about line 4000 - just after b71u 's release.

I think GBD utilized this for BZC. The changelog limits it to a certain number, but I had it go over that.

The map determines which audio tracks play which sucks and yes, you are limited to 11 maybe a few more.

CDex (google it) is my preferred way.

That program can take input audio, whether from cd audio tracks or audio files, and it will convert it to the format specified in its options, just choose OGG, high quality format preferably.

goldwave can open the file and save it as an .ogg file. its also a great audio editor

Audacity is better, well, CoolEditPro/WhateverAdobeCallsItNow is yet even better.  But he is not wanting to edit, just convert, and CDex rules with that since it can do it in bulk in basically any format putting in all necessary tags (which the program goldwave cannot do) and so forth.

Goldwave is a damn fine audio editor. It does single-track editing really well. For multi-track stuff, I like Audacity a lot. :)

I prefer Cool Edit Pro.  I still own a copy of their latest version before they were bought out by Adobe (which became Adobe's audio program, kep the interface, has like one new capability since they bought it out, it was already just about perfect for anything less then $5k, still far outdoes Audacity and Goldwave, and CEP sold for $30, now Adobe sells the exact same thing for $400...).

I usually end up having to do multi-track anyway, editing a single-track is too restrictive, usually better to cut it up, although I usually had to do more of the advanced stuff anyway.  One of my first jobs was working in a recording studio, I was one of two that did digital sound mastering, got quite good at it.
