[PS1]Tenchu 2:Birth of Stealth Assasins - .XA files

[hohenheim]

I would appreciate it if someone could help me with the .XA files for the game Tenchu 2. Despite being present in the game's sounds folder, none of the three .XA files contained in the folder can be read by any program I try. I'm under the impression that it's encrypted, but the previous game's .XA files weren't, and for all intents and purposes I hope that's not actually the case, if anyone even know why I can't even play the audios or have the time to see why that happens (with better knowledge than me) id be very thankful.

How did you extract it?
PlayStation XA files cannot just be copied as-is, you have to use a tool like jPSXdec or isobuster to extract them properly.

Yep, your sample missing a header. If you'll extract it properly using CDMage, you will be able to play it in foobar2000 with vgmstream plugin. So it's not encrypted.

Of course you can also open it with XA Audio Converter or any other XA tool
