You can use it for anything you want (it's licensed WTFPL, so that means *anything*). Q4. Why is there no '-f mp3' option? -A4. Because I use libsndfile to write the audio files, and its developer -has chosen not to include mp3 support. If you really need mp3 (if ogg and/or -flac just won't satisfy you), you can always convert to wav and use any -mp3 converter (lame, ffmpeg, etc). Someday I may actually add lame support -to miragextract, but don't hold your breath. +A4.

If you're on a big-endian platform and you have this issue, I'd like to hear from you (email address found in README). -Q6. This track01.iso I just extracted isn't an ISO, it's a Macintosh DMG. -How come it's got .iso in the filename? -A6. There's no way for miragextract to tell what type of image a data -track actually contains. Adding support for this would be possible, -but it's not there yet. Currently, the file will get called .iso because -that's what most images contain. Just rename it if it's wrong. +Q6. This track01.iso I just extracted isn't an ISO, it's something +else.

I built a static binary of miragextract, but it fails (or still requires shared libraries). Why? -- cgit v1.2.3
