Hmmm....
I imagine we can extract files, and edit them, and then make a new ISO with the files and run it on Wii. |

BUT, I don't think you can reencrypt without a key. |

Do a chart then and tell us what the audio is.
Maybe I can find a tool for it. |

Charts are just .mid.qb (same as PS2)
Audio is in .wads
Videos are standard .bik files (Bink and Smacker video files)
Just a note, The video files are editable since Bink and Smacker gives out there tools openly.

Wads, eh?
Wouldn't it be considered "WADIOS?"

.wads is probably an encrypted file format such as the PS2, or PC version but with the file extension renamed |

It could also be a container format, ie: the HED/WAD format from the PS2. |

I'm not interested in pursuing this myself, but if anyone else is looking at it I have a few observations about the Wii game files:
The .wad files are a container format. You can look at the .dat file of the same name for the file index. The names of the files in the .wad song files are -filename-.wav, and are in yet another container format called FSB3, which from my Googling is a file format common to many games. The sound data does not appear to be encrypted or compressed, and may very well be just a regular WAV/PCM file, but without a regular WAV header.
The pak files and mid files appear, at first glance, to be nearly identical to the PS2 versions. |

yes. as oppose to before when none of the files were accessible due to the encryption, the files are readily available although some are not so easily edited. |

How did you extract the files from the .wad-files? |
