Audio tracks

  1.  
    Audio Track from Lost in Time
    Lost in Time and other games contain one or more seperate audio tracks on CD. If you want to use these with ScummVM you'll have to extract them from CD then encode them. You can choose between mp3, flac and ogg. Install lame, flac or vorbis-tools. You can use a GUI like Grip or the command line.

Grip

  1. If you want to use Grip you'll have to install grip and one encoder.
  2. Open the config tab and choose the favored encoder in "Encode". The bitrate must be constant you can configure this in additional encoding options.
  3. Insert the CD in your CD-ROM drive and choose the track you want to extract and encode in "Track".
  4. Open "Rip" and choose "Rip+Encode"
  5. After ripping the desired files rename the tracks: track1.xxx track2.xxx etc. - xxx is the filename extension e.g. mp3
  6. Copy the tracks into the games folder
