    Converting to CPK?

    I'm looking for any program to convert video files to the Sega Saturn CPK format, but can't found any. Only converters to do the other way around, actually.

    Digging in Google I saw references to "AVI2CPK" programs, but all links to them are dead. This would be enough for me since I actually want to convert from AVI files.

    Any help?

    C'mon guys, I really need help on this, or reference to a good Sega Saturn board where they could tell me.

    won't standard Cinipack work? Must you use cinipac? How about TrueMotion. Looks miles better if done correctly or even CRI MPEG. Mind you, with the last one you are limited in screen size unless you make the files Video card compatible.

    It's because I'm willing to do some FMV hacking to Megaman X3, Megaman X4 and Resident Evil, and all of these games use Cinepack video format. Can't be forced to use TrueMotion format I'm afraid.

    hmm, I'll have a look around the HD to see if I have anything. Not sure if I do have any Saturn cinipac encoding software though.

    Take a quick look on zophars domain. The site is now inactive and archived but they have some really good utilities for each system, you might find what you need.

    Thanks. The program converts well the video footage, but if fucks up the sound completely, no matter which audio quality is selected. A shame as it does a good video conversion.

    And yes, I believe I've got the libraries.
