CXML Containers

Description

.QRC, .P3T, and .RAF (in order of complexity from easier to harder) and .CXML file extensions uses the same container, and are able to use zlib compression, but the zlib compression method and the structure of the container has several variations:

The only way to identify accurate the exact container type is by reading the texts in the "strings table" (are tags and some of his values from the .xml file that was used to build the container) that are related with the building process and defines his internal structure, but their names are too long to use when talking about them

• For QRC there are 2 basic variations: (both of them uses zlib compression, and only contains a "file-table" with "files")
  • QRCC - (used by all .qrc files except icontex.qrc) - zlib compression is applied over the whole .qrc file (except his first 8 bytes that are info for the decompression), after decompression the file generated is a QRCF and the internal container structure can be readed (QRCC always contains a QRCF that is the real container)
  • QRCF - (used only by icontex.qrc) - zlib compression is applied per-file over each contained file (the container structure can be read directly and every one of the files inside the container structure is compressed individually)

• For this reason is not possible to identify the 2 variations of QRC by reading his magic (both are QRCF) but his structure is different, so is needed to use unofficial names to identify them and to be able to explain his variations here in wiki, the proposed names used in this page are:
  • QRCF_1 (the most common and older... used by all .qrc's except icontext.qrc)
  • QRCF_2 (the less common and newer... used only by icontex.qrc)

• For P3T there are lot of posible variations:
  • The internal structure is dependant of the items included in the theme... some of them can be icons (to be stored inside an icontable) and others can be a wallpaper, the mouse pointers (stored in a pointertable), navigation sounds (stored in a se table), etc...
  • Is possible to create themes with the official theme compiler tool with all this items, or only a few of them (e.g: a theme containing only 1 icon... or a theme containing only the name of the theme), this frankenstein themes are really useful for understanding the structure as you can see in this examples ---> https://www.sendspace.com/file/5suokd

• For RAF seems is posible a lot of variations too
  • RAF's are used for the animation scene inside dynamic themes, when using them this way it seems the contents is restricted to a list of contained files, but raf is also used in the animation when PS3 boots (coldboot.raf) and although his format is pretty similar than the background of a theme is possible to include multiple files of different types inside the container

All this variations are confusing and hard to explain in the page, but is needed to find a way to represent them as the basic layouts that the firmware expects to find inside the container

• NOTE: The Child Element defination describe the Child Element and his Attributes where the Brother Element describe the Brother Element and his Attributes.

So the full order to read will be Child Element >>> Attributes, Brother Element >>> Attributes. The Root (so offset 0x00) of any SonyPlaystation Resource file always start's with a Child element to read.

Container Common Structure

QRC

ZLIB Compressed level 9 (only container)

QRCC

QRCC (Qt Resources Container Compressed)

In the practise and from the point of view of the system, the QRCC has no interest and is needed to decompress the whole QRCC to be able to read the internal structure of the container and to acess individual files, when a QRCC is decompressed it generates an QRCF file (the real container) but this QRCF has a different internal structure than the QRCF used by icontex.qrc (are 2 variations of the same container with some small differences... although both uses the same identifier QRCF)

• Example from 3.55 rhm.qrc:

Offset(h) 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 0A 0B 0C 0D 0E 0F
00000000  51 52 43 43 00 00 28 00 78 DA                       QRCC..(.xÚ

Name	Offset	Size	Example	Remark
Magic	0x00	0x04	51 52 43 43	'QRCC'
QRCF decompressed size	0x04	0x04	00 00 28 00	The size of the QRCF file generated when a QRCC is decompressed
compressed QRCF	0x08	varies, up to the end of the QRCC file	78 DA...	QRCF file start offset, compressed with ZLIB

• Notes
  • The first 2 bytes of the compressed QRCF is the ZLIB header, being the default/max level 9.

Zlib Header (more info here and here)

byte index	bit 7	bit 6	bit 5	bit 4	bit 3	bit 2	bit 1	bit 0
[0] CMF	Compression info 7 = indicates a 32K window size				Compression method 8 = denotes the "deflate" compression
[1] FLG	FLEVEL 0 - compressor used fastest algorithm 1 - compressor used fast algorithm 2 - compressor used default algorithm 3 - compressor used maximum compression, slowest algorithm		FDICT (Preset dictionary) If set, a DICT dictionary identifier is present immediately after the FLG byte. The dictionary is a sequence of bytes which are initially fed to the compressor without producing any compressed output. DICT is the Adler-32 checksum of this sequence of bytes (see the definition of ADLER32 below). The decompressor can use this identifier to determine which dictionary has been used by the compressor.	FCHECK value must be such that CMF and FLG, when viewed as a 16-bit unsigned integer stored in MSB order (CMF *256 + FLG), is a multiple of 31.

QRCF

QRCF (Qt Resources Container Flat?)

Main Header

The header contains an identifier of the container (magic), his version, and allows to store the "absolute start offset" and "size" of 7 tables (or areas)

When a "not used table" is placed before a "used table"... the start offset of the "not used table" and his size (as zero) are stored in the main header to preserve his position in the structure. The "used table" that comes later starts in the same offset than the previously "not used table" (an intuitive way to think in this is imagining are overlapped because starts in the same position but only the one at the top is used)

• The container format is generic (used also by .RAF and .P3T with some variations) so the usage of this tables can vary, in this example there are 3 "not used tables":
  • two of the "not used tables" (both at offset 0x460 with a size of 0) are placed before an used table (also at offset 0x460 but with a size of 0x23A0)
  • the other "not used table" is placed at the end, so there is no need to store his offset

• Example from fw 3.55 rhm.qrc:

Offset(h) 00 01 02 03  04 05 06 07  08 09 0A 0B  0C 0D 0E 0F

Filenames List

This area is composed by a consecutive list of string entries that defines the names of the <file>'s inside <file-table> from the .xml file used to create the container

Every <file> inside <file-table> has assigned 2 attributes in the xml used to create the container: "src" (includes full path + file name + file extension), and "id" (only file name), plus the attribute "size" in QRCF_2 that is added by the program that creates the container ("size" is not present in the original .xml but added automatically when the container is created, this only happens in QRCF_2 and themes and is related with the per-file compression)

• For QRCF_1 containers only is stored the "src" (the file "id" is missing although can be deduced from the "src")
• For QRCF_2 and P3T themes only is stored the "id" (the file "src" is missing so there is no way to read the original path or file extension from the container)

Code Sample

For QRCF_1 each entry is composed by:

Offset	Length	Example	Name	Notes
0x0	0x4	00000038	Filename Table pointer	Same value than in the Tree Table
0x4	variable	lib/rhm/Clear.fpo	File name	stored in the .xml as "src"
variable	0x1	00	NULL byte

• Notes
  • For QRCF_2 and themes the structure of an entry is the same, but instead of storing: lib/rhm/Clear.fpo (the file "src"), it should store: Clear (the file "id")
  • The end of the table has a padding to align to 0x10 bytes
  • About the name of this area... for QRCF_1 what is stored is the "src" of the file so we can name it "File SRC table" or "File SRC List", but QRCF_2 and themes stores the "id" of the file so we could name it "File ID table" or "File ID List", but later will be needed to move all this explanations of the structure to a new page and include RAF that is a bit unknown by now if it uses some specific names for storage types inside specific tables. By now we can use a generic name for this area that includes all them like "Filenames List" and decide later if is needed to use specific names

String Table

This area is composed by a consecutive list of all the tags (elements or attributes) from the xml that was used to create the container. Are stored "from-top-to-bottom" in the exact same order that they was ordered in the xml (although it looks in some cases the theme compiler reorders them to his convenience). This list doesn't makes differences of the "directory hierarchy" of the tags neither is specified if the tag is an element or an attribute (this parent-child hierarchy is defined in other place of the container by making references to this area by using "byte counters" to locate a tag)

In all the .qrc files (QRCF_1) except icontex.qrc (QRCF_2). The only difference is QRCF_2 adds the "size" to all the <file> elements (added by the container creator, related with the "per-file" compression)

Offset(h) 00 01 02 03  04 05 06 07  08 09 0A 0B  0C 0D 0E 0F
00000440  71 72 63 00  66 69 6C 65  2D 74 61 62  6C 65 00 66  qrc file-table f
00000450  69 6C 65 00  73 72 63 00  69 64 00 00  00 00 00 00  ile src id......

In icontex.qrc only (QRCF_2). This is similar than themes with the difference that QRC uses a <file-table> containing 1 or more <file>, and themes uses a <icontable> containing 1 or more <icon>

Offset(h) 00 01 02 03  04 05 06 07  08 09 0A 0B  0C 0D 0E 0F
00000440  71 72 63 00  66 69 6C 65  2D 74 61 62  6C 65 00 66  qrc file-table f
00000450  69 6C 65 00  73 72 63 00  69 64 00 73  69 7A 65 00  ile src id size.

• Notes:
  • yellow: used bytes
  • red: padding to align to 0x10 bytes
  • The integer values and text strings of some attributes tags from the xml (e.g: "themename=mytheme", or "fontcolor=2") are stored in this area too at the right of his tag, the presence of an integer value displaces the next tag (this only happens in themes and rafs, not in QRC files so is added here as a note but is very important for the structure of the other containers when using "byte counters" to locate the tags)

File Table

The files are concatenated in the same order than in the Tree Table & ID Table

Typ Description

Value	Typ	Notes
0x00000006	File	Composed of Offset and Size each 4 bytes long
0x00000007	ID with ref	Composed of Offset 4 bytes long

The Typ File is used to descripe two integer values, the Offset and Size for a File which will be readed from File Table. The Typ ID with ref is used to descripe the Offset of a Filename within the ID Table with the use of a 4 byte long reference, starting from the Offset given. The Size value from ID seems not to be used in Containers.

• ID with ref (0x00000007) is using the entry Offset from the Element (to which the Attribute belongs) as reference byte to compare if it is using the correct Filename for the processing File.

First Element (in root of xml) Points to a Offset within Tree Table which represents a string

Last Element (in root of xml) Points to a Offset within Tree Table which represents a string

String Pointer Points to a Offset within String Table which represents a string

Previous Element Points to a Offset within Tree Table which represents a string

Next Element Points to a Offset within Tree Table which represents a string

First Element

Last Element

String Pointer

Attribute Counter Integer value which describe the amount of Attributes for the current processing Element

Parent Points to a Offset within Tree Table which represents a string and describe the Parent Element

Previous Element (also used as a 4 byte long value which points to a Filename within ID Table)

Next Element (also used as a 4 byte long value which points to a Filename within ID Table)

First Entry Points to a Offsset within Tree Table which describe the first file of current processing Element

Last Entry Points to a Offsset within Tree Table which describe the last file of current processing Element

Stringt Pointer

Typ Descriptor A Integer value which describe the Typ of the Attribute

Offset of Filedata A Integer value, points to a Offset within File Table which describe the Start of a File to read from

Size of Filedata A Integer value which describe the Length of the File to read from File Table

String Pointer

Typ Descriptor

ID Offset A Integer value which describe the Offset of a Filename within ID Table

Container Structure variations

P3TF

P3TF (Playstation 3 Theme Flat?)

Main Header

The header contains an identifyer of the container (magic), his version, and allows to store the "absolute start offset" and "size" of 7 tables (or areas)

When a "not used table" is placed before a "used table"... the start offset of the "not used table" and his size (as zero) are stored in the main header to preserve his position in the structure. The "used table" that comes later starts in the same offset than the previouslly "not used table" (an intuitive way to think in this is imagining are overlapped because starts in the same position but only the one at the top is used)

• The container format is generic (used also by .RAF and .QRC with some variations) so the usage of this tables can vary, in this example there are 3 "not used tables":
  • two of the "not used tables" (both at offset 0x460 with a size of 0) are placed before an used table (also at offset 0x460 but with a size of 0x23A0)
  • the other "not used table" is placed at the end, so there is no need to store his offset

String Table

This area is composed by a consecutive list of all the tags (elements or attributes) from the xml that was used to create the container. Are stored "from-top-to-bottom" in the exact same order that they was ordered in the xml (althougth it looks in some cases the theme compiler reorders them to his convenience). This list doesn't makes differences of the "directory hierarchy" of the tags neither is specified if the tag is an element or an attribute (this parent-child hierarchy is defined in other place of the container by making references to this area by using "byte counters" to locate a tag)

• Notes:
  • yellow: used bytes
  • red: padding to align to 0x10 bytes
  • The integer values and text strings of some attributes tags from the xml (e.g: "themename=mytheme", or "fontcolor=2") are stored in this area too at the right of his tag, the presence of an integer value displaces the next tag (this only happens in themes and rafs, not in QRC files so is added here as a note but is very important for the structure of the other containers when using "byte counters" to locate the tags)

ID Table

The ID Table of a P3T also can hold additional information for the <localizedinfo> Element.

File Table

The files are not concatenated in the same order than in the Tree Table & ID Table. There are even some file within the File Table which are not contained in ID Table(anim.raf, authoricon, ect.,...).

Summary

Table Description

For P3T i will use the Info Array to describe (place where all the infos from the <info> Element will be stored). The other File's follow the same handling like for QRC. (Well the Info Array does also follow the same handling but we have here 13 Attributes and it will also read some values not present in a QRC Container.) Also you can see here again that if a ID is readed then the entry Offset of a Element is also used as a 4 byte long pointer within ID Table. You start from the Offset the Tree Table is given you and the next readed 4 bytes should match the entry offset of the Element in Tree Table.

Typ Description

Value	Typ	Notes
0x00000001	Integer	Composed of Value 4 bytes long
0x00000003	String	Composed of Offset and Length each 4 bytes long
0x00000006	File	Composed of Offset and Size each 4 bytes long
0x00000007	ID with ref	Composed of Offset 4 bytes long

The Typ File is used to descripe two integer values, the Offset and Size for a File which will be readed from File Table. The Typ ID with ref is used to descripe the Offset of a Filename within the ID Table with the use of a 4 byte long reference, starting from the Offset given. The Second value from ID seems not to be used in Containers. Similar to ID, the Integer Typ only use one value the second one seems not to be used. String describe the Offset and Length of a string to read from String Table.

• ID with ref (0x00000007) is using the entry Offset from the Element (to which the Attribute belongs) as reference byte to compare if it is using the correct Filename for the processing File.

Container Structure variations 2

RAF

ZLIB Compressed level 9 (only container)

_RAF

_RAF (_? Rich Appearance Format)

In practise and from the point of view of the system, the _RAF has no interest and is needed to decompress the whole _RAF to be able to read the internal structure of the container and to acess individual files, when a _RAF is decompressed it generates an RAFO file (the real container).

• Example from anim.raf of HeavyRain.p3t:

Offset(h) 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 0A 0B 0C 0D 0E 0F
00000000  51 52 43 43 00 00 28 00 78 DA                       _RAF..(.xÚ

• Notes
  • The first 2 bytes of the compressed _RAF is the ZLIB header, in this example: 0x78DA
  • default/max level 9

RAFO

RAFO (Rich Appearance Format O?)

Main Header

The header contains an identifyer of the container (magic), his version, and allows to store the "absolute start offset" and "size" of 7 tables (or areas)

When a "not used table" is placed before a "used table"... the start offset of the "not used table" and his size (as zero) are stored in the main header to preserve his position in the structure. The "used table" that comes later starts in the same offset than the previouslly "not used table" (an intuitive way to think in this is imagining are overlapped because starts in the same position but only the one at the top is used). Addition: Unlike an QRC Container a RAF can hold much more CXML Elements. The QRC only have <file-table> or <icontable> if it is the icontex.qrc.

• The container format is generic (used also by .QRC and .P3T with some variations) so the usage of this tables can vary, in this example there is 1 "not used tables":
  • one of the "not used tables" (at offset 0x6F0 with a size of 0) is placed before an used table (also at offset 0x6F0 but with a size of 0x7C)
  • the other "not used table" is placed at the end, so there is no need to store his offset

• Example from anim.raf of HeavyRain.p3t:

String Table

This area is composed by a consecutive list of all the tags (elements or attributes) from the xml that was used to create the container. Are stored "from-top-to-bottom" in the exact same order that they was ordered in the xml. This list doesnt makes differences of the "directory hierarchy" of the tags neither is specified if the tag is an element or an attribute (this parent-child hierarchy is defined in other place of the container by making references to this area by using "byte counters" to locate a tag)

File Table

The files are not concatenated in the same order than in the Tree Table & ID Table. There are even some ID String's withing the Table which are not any file from the container at all.

Summary

Type Description

Value	Typ	Notes
0x00000001	Integer	Composed of Value 4 bytes long
0x00000002	Float	Composed of Value 4 bytes long
0x00000005	Float Array	Composed of Offset and Count each 4 bytes long
0x00000006	File	Composed of Offset and Size each 4 bytes long
0x00000007	ID with ref	Composed of Offset 4 bytes long
0x00000008	ID without ref	Composed of Offset 4 bytes long

The Typ File is used to descripe two integer values, the Offset and Size for a File which will be readed from File Table. The Typ ID with ref is used to descripe the Offset of a Filename within the ID Table with the use of a 4 byte long reference, starting from the Offset given. The Second value from ID seems not to be used in Containers. So ID without ref is the same but it doesn't use an reference byte (aka. the Offset of Element). Similar to ID, the Integer Typ only use one value the second one seems not to be used. Float is identical to Integer. Float Array is used to describe the offset and count of float values. But offset will be readed as a float count just like the second var float count it self, only with the diff it is meant as offset and you start to read the given Float count from there. Example: offset 7, float_count 2 == offset 7 (7 float values to jump, á 4 bytes * 7 = 28 so Offset = 0x28) float_count 2 (2 float values to take from offset 0x28 á 4 byts long so 8 bytes to read). Result in bytes: offset == 0x28, float_count == 0x08.

• ID with ref (0x00000007) is using the entry Offset from the Element (to which the Attribute belongs) as reference byte to compare if it is using the correct Filename for the processing File.
• ID without ref (0x00000008) doesn't. Or at least if it does it, it knows that the returned value will be a false one.

CXML

HKNW

Magic of the container is HKNW (acronym of hakoniwa)

Hakoniwa is the "Photo Gallery" official app (NPIA00006) that comes partially preinstalled in the firmwares (there is a mandatory icon in XMB photo column and is dependant of hknw_plugin.sprx, but the program itself is not installed with the firmware). To use the program it is needed to install the .PKG that installs the rest of the files in dev_hdd0/game/NPIA00006/USRDIR/EBOOT.PBP

In path: dev_flash/vsh/resource/hknw_plugin/jacket/ index.cxml, frame_01.cxml, and frame_05.cxml

• Example of the string table from frame_01.cxml

Code Sample

• Notes:
  • The main tag is <root> like in a standard .xml
  • Contains some attribute types (e.g: the second tag <version> has an "attribute type 3" that points to the value "1.00" stored inside the string table) not present in the examples in this wiki page (usefull for completion of the lists of data types numbers)

Examples

QRC

The structure of QRCF_1 (same structure used by rhm.qrc in the example below and all .qrc files except icontex.qrc) is composed by a element table named file-table containing one or more elements file that are associated with the attributes src and id

QRC doesnt makes any difference of the stored file type, all them are considered generic files and stored in the same table, this is why QRCF_1 is considered one of the most simple CXML structure variations (a container for generic files). The example used here is rhm.qrc from firmware 1.00 because is the smallest version of rhm.qrc only containing 5 files

For QRCF_1 every entry is composed by the element file (28 bytes) and his associated attributes: src (16 bytes), and id (16 bytes), for a total size of 60 bytes (or 0x3C)

For QRCF_2 every entry is composed by the element file (28 bytes) and his associated attributes: src (16 bytes), id (16 bytes), and size (16 bytes) for a total size of 76 bytes (or 0x4C)

In other words... the only difference between QRCF_1 and QRCF_2 is the added attribute size in every file entry that makes entries 16 bytes longer in QRCF_2... there is no need for an example of QRCF_2 because are almost the same

This .xml represents structure of rhm.qrc 1.00, can be used to build it, and can be generated by reading the "TOC"

Code Sample

When the qrc container is build all the info from he .xml structure is stored in the TOC (at offset 0x40) after the CXML header, and the files are stored in a "Files table" placed at bottom of the container (at offset 0x250)

The TOC (colored in red tones in the example) starts with the elements: qrc, and his only children file-table that has 5 file childrens (all them are elements). Every file element has 2 attributes src and id.

P3T

P3TF

There are several variations of the CXML container structure used by themes, but one of the tables used by themes is a icontable containing one of more icon, where every entry is composed by the element icon (28 bytes) and his associated attributes: src (16 bytes), id (16 bytes), and size (16 bytes) for a total size of 76 bytes (or 0x4C)

This icontable substructure containing one of more icon is exactly the same than the file-table containing one or more file used by QRCF_2

• Notes:
  • See: http://www.psdevwiki.com/ps3/Themes_%28.p3t%29#Theme_Name_.28.XML.29 for an example of an XML before compilation, and see: http://www.psdevwiki.com/ps3/Talk:Themes_%28.p3t%29#p3t_format.2C_p3tcompiler.2C_and_p3textractor_notes for a list of tags added by the compiler

Tools

CXML decompiler

Experimental tool coded by flatz for documenting purposes, three versions of the tool was released publically in a IRC channel the same day (first and second versions had bugs which were identified and fixed)

The tool can extract the files contained inside a CXML container (CXML, QRCF, P3TF, RAFO, etc...), and generates an .xml that represents the original CXML structure

• Usage:
  • Note the original files lines.qrc and coldboot.raf are compressed with zlib (a compression layer that affects the whole file and makes it imposible to read the cxml structure). The command line examples below considers the files was decompressed in a previous step (using a zlib archiver), in this previous step the file-extension was renamed to "qrcf" and "rafo" (which are the decompressed versions where the cxml structure is fully readable and the tool can process it)

'''C:\Portables\cxml decompiler v3 alpha>decompiler.exe lines.qrcf lines.xml'''

'''C:\Portables\cxml decompiler v3 alpha>decompiler.exe coldboot.rafo coldboot.xml'''

• CXML decompiler v3 alpha, download links: http://multiupload.biz/dnsipf0dkssz/cxml_decompiler_v3_alpha_MultiUpload.biz.7z.html

Changelog
---------
v1 alpha - Basic .cxml support
v2 alpha - Fixed a bug related with RAFO header (coldboot.raf support added)
v3 alpha - Fixed offset/length displacements in the function that locates float values (xml tag attributes related with x,y,z axis in 3D space now looks correct)
v4 alpha - Floats precission increased

• CXML decompiler v4 alpha, source code:

Code Sample

• Problems/bugs

In v3 floats conversion from hex is not correct (is rounded up, causing an innacuracy). Example:
In coldboot.raf the "rotation" value for the "actors" stored in hexadecimal is 3FC90FD8, this value is converted/extracted by "cxml decompiler v3" tool as: 1.5708 (the value has been rounded up)
The accurate conversion should be 1.570796 (no rounded up, 6 decimals precission) Fixed in v4

It's easy to fix that, just replace "{0:3.6}" (without quotes) with "{0}".
