Topic: xACT 0.5.7 for windows

http://satellite.epix.net/~scb/xactwin/xACT059flac120.zip


it's still only a half done application (sorry for that) but i've added the shntool "split" and "cue" functions that Mr. Simp-Dawg wanted

you can feed it a bunch of files, and it'll make a cue sheet

you can then feed it 1 big file and have it split it to smaller ones based on that (or another) cue sheet.   it'll also fix the sector boundary errors while splitting

Simp wanted to be abe to track a 24 bit file into smaller ones, and then make a cue sheet off those 24 bit tracks.  Using that cue sheet, he wanted to be able to split a large 16 bit file into smaller tracks.  Now, he can make a cue off the 24 bit files using xACT, then use the cue to split the 16 bit file into flac, wav or shn, while fixing sector boundaries along the way

notes:
to use the cue function, drop files and hit the cue button. it's simple

for splitting, drop the 1 large file onto the window.  if you put multiple files there, it'l only split the first and ignore the other files

it'll prompt you for the cue sheet/split file after you hit the "Cue" button (and also prompt you for an output directory to save the files to)

i know that the progress bars and progress information in this app are a bit off, and i'll fix that sometime in the future

also, while i compiled this on a machine under java 1.5, i think i set it so it works with 1.4.  so if you're on 1.4 and it doesn't work, let me know

thanks scott!

thanks for continuing to update this.  I've been using this new version for a few days, and it's working great.

Scott (or anyone else) -

last weekend I had a lot of fun re-formatting my HD and re-installing windows.  yeah, it was awesome    anyway, I'd love to re-install xACT for windows again, because I use it all the time.  but it seems like the zip file posted at the top of this thread is no longer active.  I also looked through the "where to I find such and such program" that is stickied to the top of this forum (http://taperssection.com/index.php/topic,62294.0.html), and in that thread, I had posted another link to the program (http://199.224.117.240/~scb/index.php?path=xactwin/), which also seems dead.

perhaps someone would be so kind as to repost the .zip file somewhere, so I don't have to go old-school and use a DOS prompt for SHNtool.

thanks,
Jason

the machine i had it hosted on went down and i'm told it'll be restored on friday

i can send it to you tomorrow if you want, though.  it's on my work computer

[JasonSobel]

that'd be great.  thanks again,
Jason

yeah, maybe I just didn't see the .5.9 version.  but the latest is probably the best one to use.  do you still have the original .zip file?

xACT for the "Dark Side"!
Scott... come back to the light!

 

I'll give it a try on Vista on my MacBook.

[Simp-Dawg]

bump...did flac tagging ever get enabled in this?

[scb]

i haven't touched it in a long time.  it's still only like half done....

(sorry!)

[Simp-Dawg]

no need to apologize, just curious if you were still working on it!  thanks!
