Hi there,

I've just encountered these strange multichannel XMA files that won't parse correctly. They LOOK like a standard 6ch XMA2 but upon parsing the channels aren't split correctly and are still interleaved between channels. Here are samples: http://www67.zippyshare.com/v/gZTPxWSW/file.html
You can use my script from XeNTaX on these files to check (http://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=9023). The option WRITE_UNPARSED will get you a headerless file to test some parsing parameters with xma_parse.
I've tried deinterleaving the stream with different parameters but I cannot get it to work. I'm at a loss here. Cany somebody help me with this?

Regards, AlphaTwentyThree

These files can be converted with hcs's tool "XMASH". So you want to support this kind of files, you can ask him, or try analyzing his sources.

Huh, well that's curious.
Well, I'm ok for now since it's only this one game where I encountered these types.
