Hi all, I've started Ripping games some months ago and i noticed that when i convert audio files to .ogg the size shrinks A LOT!!

Unfortunatly i can't use this because i don't know how to change the .ogg files into mp3 or wav again with the using of 1 .exe or.bat file. So i'd like to learn how to use 1 exe to change a map of ogg files into another format. I could use this ability in my uharc files to make my RIP's smaller.

thx in advance for your help

You say you convert audio to OGG. Do you convert it from audio CDs? If so, reencoding the OGG to MP3 is not recommended at all. Instead, get this to be able to play OGG files on your computer.

He is into ripping games. He wants to reencode ogg files back to the original format the game expects. (after the extraction)

EDIT: Sir_robin, google for "command-line audio converter" or similar

The program in the link that you gave is just another convertor program.... its not possible to make a exe of .bat file in order to convert files after extracting

You have to include the program in the rip (it's very small) and you use a command-line command (from a .bat file) to convert and move the files appropriately.

Easy: Find a small free command-line converter that works without installing, just having its exe in the rip and using a batch file. I've seen similar converter proggies in Myth rips and other scene rips.

Why not use oggdec.exe to unpack the OGG's in one pass, and then use LAME (CLI version) to convert to MP3 on the second?

And you can easily script all that Smile And both tools are free. Plus, you could use UPX or FSG to pack the EXE's to shrink them a bit. Only issue I can see is quality problems when you re-encode the temporary WAVs..(since transcoding from one lossy format to another lends itself to quality losses)

I hope this helps you out.

The difference between this guy and someone asking "how do I get my NFO on nforce" is pretty clear.. he didn't ask. Someone wanting to learn how to RIP games is a good thing isn't it? Its far better than someone doing a crap job and then expecting instant scene access..

Anyway.. Hate should only be thrown at stupid people who don't want to learn.

Lame decoder does the trick nice Smile.
And to "PoorLeno". I don't care about the scene Smile, i Rerip/repack there releases:p. So I don't think groops like Unleashed are fan of me:p. I just do it for fun and for downloaders Smile (and to save some space on my disks:p.

And even if this topic is from 2007, I'm still at it Very Happy. (my old rips suck dough:p. The new ones are much better)
