So here's the deal, I love a certain soundtrack on Mushroom Wars.
Someone uploaded a version of it from the PS3 version [ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SY54xegYEX4 ] but it seems the audio's been compressed by youtube. If possible I want to get the .ogg or whatever native format it's in, un-truncated.
So I've taken the .apk [ uploaded it here https://www.mediafire.com/?7vih6xsb0murslz ] and unzipped it and found ./assets/sound2/ which is about 11MB. I sorted by the highest size, and it shows several soundtracks, but none of them is the right one. The rest are short sound effects.
I know for a fact that the music has played on a multiplayer mode, on my tablet a couple weeks or months back. [I checked thenk, but same as now, couldn't find it].
If anyone can show me where the music file is or upload it, that would be great.

If you can record it with your phone and post that, I can get a high quality version (via ps3) if that helps?

No, it doesn't really help because I never know when the soundtrack will come on [it's somewhat random which track will play, depending on the map, which is also random]. Even then, it would have game sound effects mixed in, and I just want the raw track.
I just cannot figure out where they are hiding that specific track, or why they would try to do it. The others are easily found but I'm still drawing a blank why they [Mushroom wars developers] would do that.

I was going thru the files (thanks for the apk) and noticed that on the music tracks, they're long and have like 10 songs in each track (or something like that). Basically, it's like 1 long file and every minute or so there's a new sound track in the file. Did you listen to all of them?
I swear that on PS3 there's a "CHICKIE" sound effect and in the apk I only found a "Chingie" sounding thing. I'm gonna have to play it on the PS3 and get the sound I heard cuz I want it for a notification tone
EDIT:
Also, as for recording it, if you can get at least a 10 second snippet of the 'track' you want, I'm willing to hunt thru the apk for it. Wouldn't hurt, right?
i have found some soundtracks of mushroom wars on SOUNDCLOUD.

Is that possible?
Often times, I play a video just for the sound/music but nothing (YouTube, video player) would let me turn off the screen or use other apps.
Now some of u might consider my question a dumb one and think it pointless. However, I have considered that already but I still want to be able to "multitask". I really do understand that doing that would contradict the meaning/purpose of video.
So would it be possible to at least turn off the screen?
What you could do is dl "you mate" from the market, and dl the songs directly to your /sd
But that's not what I want.
What if I want to watch/listen to a video once and not dl it?

You have that option, the app prompts you before each vid. Don't think you can have both and get the same out come, or at least there is no way that I know of.
I can't find that app... -_____-
just to clear things up before my 101 arrives in a few days : is the cinema plugin needed only for the mpeg2/ac3 5.1 combo or also for mpeg2 video in combination with some other type audio, and ac3 5.1 audio in combination with some other type video? in other words, is any of the two in a media file enough for the cinema plugin to be needed or do they both have to be present? h.264/ac3 5.1 combo works without the plugin? i guess not but i'd like to make certain...
thanks!

thanks for the answer!
now, i have several video clips with h.264/ac3 5.1 in an mkv container. i'm trying to transcode these clips into mkvs or mp4s with the same video stream (so, video direct stream copy) and transcoded audio to either ac3 2.0 or aac that archos supports without the cinema plugin. none of the transcoders i tried seemed to be able to do this: mediacoder, super, handbrake (i'm not even sure if handbrake supports direct video stream copy, i wasn't able to find it) - they all failed. has anyone tried to do this and can recommend a good transcoder? i don't want to re-encode the video, just the audio stream.
thanks!
try vlc, ok it's a bit complicated but it definitly supports reuse of streams on the fly.
and do not reencode to ac3, afaik ac3 is completely depending on the cinema plugin
You can also use rock player free, although it leaves buttons on edge

yes, i read that everything above 540p is choppy without hw accel on a101.
i used a workaround that works but it's not ideal: i demuxed the ac3 5.1 audio stream from the mkv and re-encoded it into aac, then remuxed it back into the mkv. this works but it would be nice to have a one-step process to do this. i'm not sure what goes wrong with all the transcoders if you use direct video stram copying, i must be doing something wrong ... i'll be grateful if someone has any ideas. oh, and i haven't tried vlc yet - didn't even know it features transcoding, too...
thanks!
...or i'll just buy the freaking cinema plugin, it's only 15€ after all ... it's just that i like fooling around with free tools before i buy something which is not necessary and is something which should've come free with the product imo... oh, well
cheers
You got two options:
a) transcode all your movies/videos and spend couple of hours fooling around (how much $$$ is an hour? )
b) spend 15$ and be happy with the best video player available on archos' android devices
Okay, I have to ask. Can someone give a link to where you can buy the cinema pack? I've been trying to find it at store.archos.com or whatever and I can't find it. And yes...I feel pretty stupid about it since it seems everyone else knows where to buy it.

You have to put in your product key and it should give you the option for the plugin.
Don't feel stupid; the Archos site is awful and half the links don't work right. The above link that blazingwolf posted should work. Note that when you do successfully purchase the pack, you will get a download link presented on the web page - that one does NOT work, or at least it didn't for me... it kept saying invalid product ID.
I had to use the link in the email they sent out after the order was completed. That one downloaded fine.

Thanks Wolf! Or is it Blazing? Either way, thanks. I'm tempted to get it, but on the flip side I'm not sure if I will keep the 101 or upgrade to the Xoom WiFi only tablet. I don't really NEED more than the 101, but you know...in reality I probably didn't even NEED the 101 to begin with. I'm kind of rambling...so I'll post now and put down the keyboard...

I'm pretty sure I am not breaking the cardinal sin of asking a stupid question with an answer right in front of me. If I am, I am truly sorry. I searched, and did not find any threads on this.
I recently modded my TP with CM7 (I'm very new to all this). Everything went fine, no issues here.
I plan to use it to play video's from time to time, pre-loaded in case there is no net at the location, etc. I use astro file manager on my phone, and since I love it, I grabbed it for the TP also. Problem is, it really seems like it cant see anything.
I am thinking the folder path mappings are off or something? I see that I can define where I want "external storage" to look, (default is... /mnt/sdcard)?
I even tried to take a screenshot and got... "Error: /mnt/sdcard/tempshot.bmp (Permission denied)" Screenshot saved to null
Anyone know what I'm missing? Thanks!
-- Ps, if I can get this sorted out, my main question was which video files are supported for playback with this CM7 rom through the TP.
These were answered before, but for the most part buried in threads. Your external SD is actually listed as EMMC and it's not in your primary directory, you actually have to go up one.
Android should play most formats it would normally, but as this is still alpha, there is no hardware video acceleration, so anything higher resolution then a internet video will most likely be choppy.
There are some video players that people have had luck with, and overclocking the processor also can help until we get hardware acceleration.

Ah ok. I was somehow able to get the stock filebrowser to see my directories without a problem after I poked around a bit. I then ran into what you already answered for me . Video's do indeed seem choppy... I think I'll try to reduce the quality of an avi I have and see how that go's.
I'm not ballsy enough to OC anything. It took me a lot of guts to flash the damn thing anyway, thanks for the heads up though.
-- figured I'd post how it turned out.
I used Xilisoft HD Converter and converted using the android specific output setting, and 640x480, runs great using double twist.
Amaze music player will not play full mp3?
OK all; I’ve had this issue with both of my phones (one went swimming). It didn’t bother me so much before as I had not yet did the full merge for phone only use of music. NOW that I am using my cell as mp3 player like I should, this bugs the **** out of me!!! ***ANY help or knowledge on this matter will save me from doing another destructive test! *****
What happens is when I play any mp3 file that is longer than a normal or standard track it switches to the next track without finishing the current one. Such as a 1.5 hr continuous mix, around ten minutes in it switches to the next mp3 file (whether it’s a downloaded noise for ring tone, or the beginning of another track). Sucks with earbuds in on a quiet track and then BAM-a loud track –or vice versa –totally makes me wanna throw this $500 cell!!
I have tried using the google player, the other music player, switching from cell hard drive to removable card—does not make any difference. It will play single normal tracks of course but they are not as long and does not have the time to skip ahead.
One of the main reasons I am using the phone is for the ability to skip through long tracks/mixes. I don’t know if it is an amaze issue, android issue, sd card format issue, music placement on card issue or what. I have tried many things and am willing to do whatever it takes if someone knows a fix. A diff music program/root? I have a stock cell now.
It will happen when I am using headphones or plugged into car audio .
I sure hope someone has come across this ! Thanks in advance for any response!
Anyone? I mean, have any of you tried to play an eBook mp3? Maybe a school lecture? A long DJ mix? ----and have it play all the way through? Like past 10 minutes?
Maybe you have shake to shuffle enabled.. otherwise my long EDC mixes play just fine I think
Just for you I played a 1hr+ MP3 on a 32Gb class 10 card,
27 mins in, playing fine. Try copying your tracks to your internal memory or re-converting them from CD?

Thank you sooooooo much for a reply! And EDC type muze is exactly what I am talking about! I tried it again w/ a long mix and at 10 min 26 sec every time BAM-skips to nxt track or sound. I have headphones plugged in and cell is still on desk (no movement) so no shaky. Where do you have your files? on an sd card or phone memory? Are they listed in folders? Any details will help !!!! If yours is working then mine should!!! aaaaaaarrrgh!

THANKS FOR TESTING FOR ME!!! yeah mine again --10min 27 sec switches? I too have a 32gb card. i have played them on the cell mem and sd card with same response. The tracks that i am referring to are actually not on a disc but only a file so cannot re-convert. They play as they shld everywhere but on cell. I dont know if there is a time out feature/limit? But i have not found one. I have taken them out of folders and put just on the drive main page to see if there is a change ( at s/o request) but there is no diff. Where do you store you mp3 files and how if I may ask? THANKS AGAIN for your time!!!!! This is so frustrating to me for an otherwise very pleasant phone!

THANKS! I shall DL that app right now. One more question...where are your music files located on your SD card? Are they in a folder? If so what do you have it labeled as? (dont know if that makes any difference). Or are the mp3 files just "ON" the cards "main menu" screen that comes up when you access the SD card, and not in a folder? Thanks again for your time and response!

OHHHHHHHHH MY LAAAAAAAAAAWD HAVE MERCY ON ME !!! I couldn't, nay.......shouldn't just simply bow out of my thread with my tail b/t my legs--without an explanation. It was some sort of corrupted mp3 files! 3 of them. All from the same source. They played fine everywhere but the Amaze. I played others that were from a diff source and they will play through no problem. So I went back to the files and monitored as well as listen closely and there is a slight hiccup at the 10:26 time, which in effect would trigger something in the Amaze with 3 diff music players, to skip forward. But does not affect playing on a PC or CD.
It was fueled by the emotion I had towards these mixes and I HAD to have them and hear them!! I should have tried others more effectively.
Thank you two for your help, even though it was me at fault on this end.
On a positive note this has inspired me to go ahead and root my Amaze. This will be my first root. There are some awesome ROMS out there, now...I just have to pick one.
Thanks again for your time and response's, all is well with the Amaze.
I just finished Final fantasy 4 (android), and I wanted to have the remastered soundtracks from it. But on the internet the remastered version is not available yet, I could only find the old soundtracks.
I tried screencast recorder, z screen recorder etc(to record video+audio then extract audio), but they all record audio from the microphone, so that didn't work out.
So is there a way to extract the audio from the game somehow, or some on screen audio recorder for android devices?
thanks
You might be able to plug your phone into a computer and run a program that just records what the sound card is putting out on your phone
