Glad to hear you're making progress on brsar tools, jurassicPieter! I share some of Mouser's concerns about logging, but I'm really in no position to complain as designer of one of the worst-designed non-logging emulated sound formats.
With luck someone will be able to extract out the sequence player code as is commonly done in PSF and use the particular version needed in each game.

i'd just like a way to play the brsar/seq stuff in anyway on my computer :P
(aside from downloading mp3 rips and crap like that)

I share the concern about logging too. But when i look at the way how Dolphin is coded(most recent version preloads 1 block of 1 gig of memory for speed to start with and this fails a lot on many computers), logging seems to be better. Or at least make an elf file that plays it in gamecube mode, since the wii coding relies heavily on hacks. But i have no experience in creating or patching elf files so far.

When looking at the brsar file format making a perfectly working extractor and builder was a bit ambitious. Zero out sound effects and appending RSEQ files and changing the offsets should be doable.

I figured out the RSEQ format already. It seems to be almost the same as Nintendo DS SSEQ, except there's a LABL chunk added with labels indicating they added SSAR-like functionality in RSEQ.

RSEQ2MIDI.exe should be very likely to work. :D

RSEQ2MIDI first result by jurassicPieter at 1:43 PM EDT on October 6, 2009

Here's the result of RSEQ2MIDI when i tested it on the RSEQ containing the Hammer BGM of Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It's so close to SSEQ!

awesome

Where can I download the .WAD? I wish to test it with Bomberman Blast, and if necessary, with Doc Louis Punch Out.

by jurassicPieter at 12:58 PM EDT on October 31, 2009

If you give the brsar i can make a wad. But i haven't been working on it lately.

by jurassicPieter at 3:11 AM EST on January 19, 2010

Resume of the project. I tested it on all the wii channels and a homebrew called wad creator to make wads of all my channels.

Working
ff:cc life as a king
ff:cc life as a landlord
ff:cc life as a landlord demo
internet channel
mario kart channel
nintendo channel
pokémon rumble demo
wii fit channel
wii fit plus channel
wii shop channel
wii speak channel(except the bns file inside)
wii system menu

Freezes before 'put strap on' message
check mii out
forecast channel
mii channel
news channel
photo channel
today&tomorrow channel
all brsar's from wii iso's

Freezes when playing first song
Bit.trip beat demo

and the first downloads of the wads:
part 1
part 2
once you start the wad in Dolphin or if you start the channel on a softmodded PAL wii, you can use up and down on the wii remote to switch songs and use right to fade out the song. Already recorded several sequenced songs.


My next tryout is editing brsar's and inject RSEQ files in it. For that i modified the mario kart channel brsar and added 1 mb of zeroes in the file chunk where i try to fill in files, banks and sequences from different brsars. I chose the mario kart channel one because it's not too big. For example the first RSEQ sequence starts at 0x3A40 and in the INFO block there's one occurence of 0x3A40. Big chance that is the offset of the RSEQ in the info block.

Questions brsar rseq by Pyrominion at 9:23 AM EST on January 21, 2010

I'm new to posting on forums and do not want to sound ignorant or too straight forward, but ill risk sounding like a script kiddie. My main goal right now is to extract the sound clips from Animal Crossing: City Folk. The main file is rv_forest.brsar and when i opened it in a hex editor i saw rseq, rwav, etc.. I had originally tried brsar_unpack 0.0, ripping_mama and letsdump knowing that most, if not all of the files would not extract. To be exact nothing extracted. I am using linux ubuntu karmic as my OS. I know enough basic shell commands to navigate and compile and write basic shell scripts. The second problem im having is the software that is being updated to recognize brsar and rseq files are for winamp and linux does not like winamp at all even on wine. I googled brsar and rseq and only 3 forums came up that even mention them and only 2 know anything about them. jurassicPieter is the furthest along i have seen when it comes to extracting rseq from brsar files and converting rseq to midi. My question for jurassicPieter is how did you capture the rseq file? was it extracted or copied from hex? if extracted, with what and is it on linux? do you have source? and may i PLEEASEEEE have a copy of what you have to extract or convert them? thanks sorry for being so long
