SEGA - Grouping of file extensions in SCH

From DCBase Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

In BASE, clients add EX fields to SCH to denote which extension files should have. This can lead to a situation where the large bulk of extensions are of similar "type", e.g. audio files or documents. This extension intend to add a field GR which groups multiple extensions. In addition, the field RX shall be used for group-exclusion; if all extensions in a group but two are desired, field RX will be used to exclude those group items.

Signal SEGA[1] in the INF's SU field for support of this extension.

Field GR values, where multiple groups are specified by adding the numbers together:

0 Audio APE, FLAC, M4A, MID, MP3, MPC, OGG, RA, WAV, WMA
