I tried after reading "Amicitia," I was able to extract the video part well, but I couldn't extract the sound. No sound is produced even when output .adx(.hca) file.
I used "crid_mod.exe."
I want to extract MOV021.USM
Used command line
"crid_mod.exe -b xxxxxxxx -a xxxxxxxx -v -x -s 0 -c -i "(..folder path)\MOV021.USM""

I think most of the USMs don't have any embedded sounds, except maybe for the opening ones.

I was using the Ryo Framework's Developer Mode to monitor the sound files that are called when a movie is played, but it seems that nothing is being called. Is this something I can't check?
safe pebble
If loading audio from an external source, where is it stored?
The MOV021.USM file I want to extract is a 2D animation movie

The audio should be in the USM
The only USM videos that have external audio are prerendered 3D cutscenes that have an event ID
Make sure you're using the correct encryption key
So your command should be crid_mod.exe -b 00234168 -a 3D2FDBA6 -v -x -s 0 "(..folder path)\MOV021.USM"

When I enter the command line as shown here, the video itself can be extracted normally, but the audio data is silent even though it has the correct capacity.
safe pebble
can you send the ADX file
This is it.
cunning plaza
Yeah there's something up with it
after -s 0 add -c
just before the path
that will convert the ADX to WAV
-s 0 is the audio track you have selected. If that still doesn't work you can try changing it to 1 (this is how they put both voice languages in one USM)
After that you'll want to do this command ffmpeg.exe -i "Location of Video File.m2v" -i "Location of Audio File.wav/.adx" -c copy "Outputfile.mkv" so you can merge the video and audio together (or you can keep it seperate)
safe pebble
When I output to .wav, the file is 0 bytes for some reason.
cunning plaza
interesting
can you send the USM
I'll see if it works for me
(if it's too big just zip it)
safe pebble
This is it. please
cunning plaza
Yeah it's happening to me too
At least the video extracted
must be something with the encryption
I'm not actually sure why that isn't working
It's definitely the right key too because the video works
safe pebble
I'm glad to know that this isn't a problem related to my environment.
cunning plaza
Yeah that's why I wanted to test it on my PC
I just extracted the USM myself too from the CPK and the same issue happened
safe pebble
I wanted to change the voice of the news anchor in this movie.
cunning plaza
I tried another USM too and the same issue occurred
safe pebble
Is it impossible to extract USM from 2D animation?
cunning plaza
No it should work
but it isn't
I can give you the audio from the PS4 USM file
it'd be the same thing
safe pebble
I see, so with 2D animation the platform doesn't matter.
cunning plaza
No
I'm only doing this because using this program to extract USM files on the PS4 files works
on PC it doesn't
And I have no idea why
they are different files with different encryption keys though
It doesn't matter what the USM file contains, it's all just video and audio
like an MP4
safe pebble
Does this have anything to do with subtitles data?
cunning plaza
I doubt it
Also it seems the PS4 audio from the USM uses 6ch surround sound
idk if PC uses that or not
0 is English and 1 is Japanese
safe pebble
Is this PS4 Ver?
cunning plaza
yes
It should line up with the video from PC though
they didn't change it
It sounds like all the dialogue is in the left ear though
probably the way foobar is playing back 6 channel audio
Yeah it is
Well it seems like all the voiceover is in one channel in the audio file, should make it easier to replace
safe pebble
If i change the extension of the output .adx to .hca, convert it to wav using Foobar2000, and open it in Audacity, you'll see that there are 6 channels.
cunning plaza
Don't change the name
it is an ADX file
you'll need to convert it to WAV from an ADX to edit it
cunning plaza
Also it seems the PS4 audio from the USM uses 6ch surround sound
As I said the audio is indeed 6 channel audio
there is a track in there for dialogue
so if PC needs stereo audio you should be able to just export it as stereo when you're done editing and then convert it to HCA or whatever the PC version of the game needs
Ok so PC uses HCA 6ch
PS4 uses ADX 6ch
safe pebble
If I were to incorporate this audio into a video, would it be better to leave it at 6ch?
If the PS4 version is .adx and the PC version is .hca, do I need to convert them?
The PC version is .hca, but I extracted it as .adx, so the audio file was corrupted...?
cunning plaza

I think that's what's happening
cunning plaza
If I were to incorporate this audio into a video, would it be better to leave it...
Try 6ch first and see how it goes, if it's being weird just convert it to stereo
cunning plaza
If the PS4 version is .adx and the PC version is .hca, do I need to convert them...
Your WAV file that has your edited audio needs to be the format that P5R PC is expecting
safe pebble
Ok, I'll try it.
