Hello, there! (This is my first post, so I'm kind of nervous.)

I've been interested with Sonic CD for 2 months now, especially with disassembling it. I found segaview, a viewer for Sega CD video files, and tried it out on Sonic CD .stm files. I noticed that the audio was pitched down, and the video glitched a bit in the endings. I wanted to see if I could make a program that works perfectly on decoding the videos. So far, I've made a program that can get the palette data from the pencil test and start drawing the pictures, but the pictures are not drawn right. The program will not currently support any other files. I have e-mailed the maker of segaview, MERLiX, about the format, but he did not respond.

I'm making the program in C#. If anyone is interested in helping me, or has any information on the format of the videos, please reply or PM me.
Thank you,
TheCubeMaster.

Hmmm, so we could in theory add clips from Sonic OVA or maybe some sonic shorts. We could create a MGS like experience and add cutscenes at various points in the game. Would be a good idea.
