Well technically it's not tools troubleshooting, but I don't know a better place to post this question.

Has anyone documentation on the WSS file format?

I have found out that there are at least two different audio formats in WSS files:
- uncompressed PCM data
- compressed 16bit PCM to some 8bit encoding

I'm interested in the compressed data format; I have found out, that it is differential (it indicates differences in the original data) and it is on a logarithmic scale; it is similar to the µ-law algorithm (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M-law_algorithm) since decoding it with µ-law almost sounds like the decompressed stream.

I'm glad for every help!

Could you send me one of these compressed files or tell me where I can find them in ArmA2?
