no one knows any additional ways to demultiplex then readd the audio?

or what's up with the error (when loading into pss plex) and how to fix it?

MFAudio can get the audio from the videos. It worked with FFX-2 for me anyway. Zophar.net has it right here.

That'll get you the wave file. So now you should have the audio and video, then if you want to multiplex it use AVISynth and VurtualDub or which ever prefered program.
I used the command: AudioDub(video,audio) in my script to avoid de-syncing. And then go from there for compressing if thats what you're after.

Either way, MFAudio will get the wave for you.

With the ending of FFX-2 I got an overflow error from PSS Plex, probably due to the size. PSS Demux worked fine, though. Just drag and drop. *shrugs*

thank you, pss demux seems to work.

what would be the best way to multiplex the wav + m2v into an mpeg without losing quality? tmpgenc doesn't seem to like the wav...

I've never made an mpeg file, so I don't know...

So Castor Troy's method works for .pss files on some games. What about games that use other formats, or tricks of some kind? For example, any of the .hack games, Silent Hill 3, or Xenosaga?

I haven't tried Xenosaga yet, but there seem to be only a few .pss files on both the .hack series and Silent Hill 3 (such as the opening). Is there another method for these?

I found a new error to add to the list

I am trying to rip MGS2 sub and split the files like the guide says then in step 3 I get bogus file sizes like 27k then is step 4 it dosn't work at all just pops up and says cannot preform (or somingthing like that)

Then I tryed the skip and just name the split files PSS and got overflow error so I split again and got Illegal bit streem found in file.

Any ideas? Any one? v_v *gose and sulks in cornor*

I tried Xenosaga, and it didn't work... I haven't found any other methods to get around it, either.

The KH extractor only extracts (I think) the music files! Is there a way we can extract the fmv in KH?
