My detailed instructions for ripping FMV from FFX-2

Postby GermWarfare » Fri Jan 12, 2007 12:41 am

In a caffeine inspired moment of pure obsessive-compulsiveness, I created a forum post to detail the entire process of how to extract FMV's from Final Fantasy X-2.

I know that this is described elsewhere, but I wanted to recreate all that I learned from multiple sources in one post; plus, I discovered a few modifications which I think give a slightly better product.

Sorry to post in a different forum btw, but this forum here drives me crazy that you can't edit your posts.

Enjoy :)

Of course, if you have the capability to playback MPEG-2 (and don't really care to go through the process of converting to AVI for editing - which, by the way, it could be suggested to use HuffYUV, Lagarith, or YV12-mode HuffYUV as the compressor for AVI to save space but still be lossless), it is possible to simply compress the valid .wav file as AC3 using ffmpeg - to avoid the problems I keep hearing about concerning encoding AC3 with BeSweet - and then use TMPGEnc's muxer to take the .m2v and .ac3 and join them into a normal .mpg file. If you don't have a way of decoding AC3, ffmpeg can also encode MP2, which should play back fine with the Windows default decoder.

Unless of course converting it was to correct the speed issues I remember sometimes cropping up with the FMVs (can't remember if it was with FFX or X-2 that I noticed that problem).

You post this same question a couple of times in other forums, so therefore i decided to answer it for you (btw read the forum rules otherwise you could get banned by posting the same question in multiple threads :) ) the simple answer i can give you is "Play the FFX game. Go to the sphere theater and there you go. Its all in order for you.
