SCUMM game audio compression

[iamlost_]

I'm trying ot make a SCUMM game dvd from all my SCUMM CDs but in order for them to fit on a DVD i need to compress the aduio files, I'm trying to do it with the tools set and SCUMMVM quick and easy but it comes up with this error message.

C:\PROGRA~1\ScummVM\tools>compress_scumm_sou.exe --mp3 --vbr -b 24 -B 24 -V 4 -q
2 C:\DOCUME~1\Alan\MYDOCU~1\SCUMMVM\DAYOFT~1\MONSTER .SOU
'compress_scumm_sou.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Something went wrong!

And compress_scumm_sou.exe is definitely in that folder? I know that's the default install location for it but the error seems to indicate that it's not there.

Apparently that file doesn't exist, not in the current scumm tools set anyway. You need to use the extract.exe to convert the monster.sou into monster.so3 files. Have a look here, it's for pocket devices but the principles for ripping and compressing remain the same.

I finally managed to find compress_scumm_sou.exe it's in the CVS bit and as i don't know what the entirely means i ghad been avoiding it.
