[comp.sys.amiga] Deluxe Video III question.

[Eat this]

I've been using EA's Deluxe Video III for a while now, and I've had a nagging
problem trying to load in music.  DVIII wants music in SMUS format, but most
of the SMUS files I have won't load in at all.  These are typically Sonix 
files, with custom instruments for each song.  The only music I've been 
able to load has been stuff converted to SMUS by Deluxe Music.  This is a 
pain, because  (1) DMCS does a lousy job of converting its files to SMUS; 
either the conversion routine or SMUS format is lousy, because the songs  
really sound much poorer; and (2) most of the really good music I have 
is in Sonix/SMUS format.  Can anyone suggest a workaround here?  Is there 
some way to make the Sonix/SMUS stuff more compatible with DVIII?
