SS Extract can't extract songs from SingStar 80's vol. 3 for Nintendo Wii

[Baklap4]

Original question asked here: performous/performous#22

Hello,
I have a SingStar 80's vol. 3 for Nintendo Wii and I would like to know if I can use the files with Performous 0.7? On the DVD, in the songs directory, each karaoke music have .xml (lyrics, tempo...), .tex (cover?) and .vid (vidéo in bink format) files. Is performous could read directly this files or do I have to convert them? If I have to convert them, someone could explain me how? I saw on a tutorial I could convert .vid in avi file with radtools, but I found nothing for the xml and tex files...
Thank you.

As @tapio noticed the XML's are in a different format:

That file appears different from the traditional SS format Performous is able to parse. :/
I think the traditional DVDs have the metadata in a separate xml file, but I'm not sure. Artist and Song name used to also be in comments in the note XMLs.

Suggested Fix

As offered by @Tronic

It would be nice if you could write another song parser for that format. The video file should work as it is, considering that FFMPEG (which Performous is based on) can read pretty much anything.

• Write a parser for this new format

If possible I would go for an xslt transformation. I'll try to buy a second hand Wii DVD to see if we can build a simple tool to decode it.
