Feature Request: ZGI DVD support

[Ezekiel000]

This is an idea for much later as the ZGI DVD version is quite rare so support can wait until after Nemesis is working.
I think there are only two real differences between the normal version and the DVD version:

1. The file structure is different
2. Some of the videos are in DVD format, some are higher resolution avi files and some are the same as the CD release.

So the only changes would be in the conversion and making sure that Zengine allows higher resolution videos.
Here is a list with md5s of the DVD version file structure:

I have seen this issue too. I tried using the autoconvert scripts on an install of the DVD version, but it had some issues. There were no warnings or errors in the conversion process, but I expect a number of files didn't get converted correctly. The issues I saw involved a segmentation fault when trying to access the preferences and static replacing some of the audio in certain locations.

While I don't own the CD version, I do own the GOG.com version of the game (which I understand is based on the CD version) and that works ok so far, though I haven't played through the game very far yet.

I agree with ezekiel's comments above and I think we need better error messages in the conversion scripts so these issues are more apparent.

The dvd version has higher quality versions of some videos, there are also
what I assume to be higher quality rlf, raw, and tga files but I haven't investigated them.

The videos with actors in them are stored as vob files, format:
Stream #0.0[0x1e0]: Video: mpeg2video (Main), yuv420p, 720x480 [PAR 8:9 DAR 4:3], 29.97 fps, 29.97 tbr, 90k tbn, 59.94 tbc
Stream #0.1[0x80]: Audio: ac3, 48000 Hz, 5.1, s16, 384 kb/s

They have borders so would need to be cropped to 704:336:12:70
