Does anyone know how or where I can pull the GP4Info (specifically the Split1 and Split2 values) for the original 17 tracks? I assume they're in GP4.exe somewhere but I don't know how to get to them...

If you open the dat within GP4Builder, can't you see the split lines and then note the track sector they're on ?

No the 17 original .dat files don't have GP4Info inside the .dat - it's a GPxPatch invention. I'm pretty sure it's in GP4.exe, I just don't know where.

The original 2001 tracks don't have GP4info or Magic Data, both are community inventions.

This will work. Just make sure you're looking directly at the list of track sectors and not the GP4 Info tables.

Yeh, I forgot to mention "lines on the track map" :)

Nope that doesn't work either - if the Split1 and Split2 values are not set in the GP4Info then GP4 Builder just puts the lines at 1/3 and 2/3 distance. Like I said, I'm looking to get the values from GP4.exe. It's not in the .dat.

If I remember correctly, in the original tracks the splits really are at 1/3 and 2/3 track distance.
