PAMFtool (tool for Advanced Movie Format) 1.1.0

PAMFtool is an open-source muxer & demuxer for PlayStation Advanced Movie Format (.PAMF, .PAM), often found in PS3 games.

The goal of this project is to provide an open-source solution for preserving PAMF videos without relying on SDK tools.

Source code is included in the zip, the tool is still in development.

Supported streams:

- AVC (H.264) video streams

- M2V (MPEG-2) video streams

- ATRAC3 Plus audio streams

- LPCM audio streams

Requirements

.NET 8.0 (or higher)

Supported platforms: Windows, macOS, Linux.

Usage & Parameters

* -info - Print information about a PAMF file and its streams

* -demux - Demux all streams from an input PAMF file and write them to a subfolder

* -mux - Mux all streams contained in a folder into a new PAMF file

Additional -mux Parameters

* -noep - Skip writing an entry-point seek table in the PAMF header

* -deblock - Force the codec-info deblock byte to 1 for AVC streams

* -nodeblock - Force the codec-info deblock byte to 0 for AVC streams

Notes

- While the demuxer is fully functional, the muxer is still experimental. PAMF files rebuilt with this tool work in all tested PS3 games so far.

- Raw H.264 data does not play in most video players. Use ffmpeg to mux it back into a more conventional container format.
