General format

QRC files (Qt Resources Container) are part of the firmware, located inside a QGL folder (Qt Graphics Library) in path: dev_flash/vsh/resource/qgl using names: canyon.qrc, earth.qrc, icons.qrc, icontex.qrc, lines.qrc, raf.qrc, rhm.qrc, and store.qrc

  • All them uses zlib compression and the same container, but the zlib compression method and the structure of the container has 2 variations:
    • All .qrc files except icontex.qrc (magic QRCC) - zlib compression is applyed 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)
    • icontex.qrc - (magic QRCF) zlib compression is applyed per-file over each contained file (the container structure can be readed directlly and every one of the files inside the container structure is compressed individually)

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 variations of the same container with some small differences... althougth both uses the same identifyer QRCF)

  • For this reason is not posible to identify them by reading his magic (both are QRCF) but his structure is different, so is needed to use unnofficial 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)
  • Notes
    • Actually, the correct way to identity the QRCF container is by reading the texts in the "strings table" that are related with the building process and defines his internal structure, but his names are too long to use when talking about them
    • The container used by .QRC files (the 2 variations of QRCF) is the same used by .P3T themes (P3TF) and .RAF animations (RAFO). All them are variations of the same generic container for a total of 4 known/found
    • The contents of QRC files are compatible/generated with/by: Qt framework and OpenGL

QRCC

QRCC (Qt Resources Container Compressed)

QRC file ZLIB Compressed level 9.

  • 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

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, in this example: 0x78DA
    • default/max level 9

QRCF

QRCF (Qt Resources Container 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 .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 althougth 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

XML Descriptors List

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 doesnt makes differences of the "directory hierarchy" of the tags neither is specifyed 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 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 is used to descripe the Offset of a Filename within the ID Table.

Tools

ZLIB archivers

QRC files are compressed in ZLIB, and has 8 bytes added at the start of the file. To be able to use a generic zlib archiver is needed to remove this 8 bytes (and is needed to add them in the last step when rebuilding the QRC file)

SimplyZip

Windows archiver able to extract and create zlib files. http://www.paehl.de/cms/simplyzip

  • Usage:
    • Open the program and click in the tab at top: [External progs] ---> [ZLIB (pack/unpack)]
    • A window opens where you can select the file
    • Choose [Decompress] or [Compress], then click in [Start]

QGL converter

This tool can decompress a QRCC to QRCF and compress a QRCF to QRCC (it crops/generates the first 8 bytes and manages the zlib decompression/compression)

https://raw.github.com/wargio/ps3tools/master/QGL.c (just run make to compile it)

QRC Extractors

After the ZLIB decompression (needed for all .qrc files except icontex.qrc) the contents can be extracted individually using different tools

  • Notes
    • Some of the images are inverted vertically (only .dds?)

P3Textractor

Is posible to use a theme extractor to extract the contents from .qrc files, but first is needed to replace the characters / by _ of the text strings inside the Name table with a hexeditor (e.g: the string override/black/ICONS.mnu needs to be replaced by override_black_ICONS.mnu) This patching of the text strings can be automated by selecting the whole Name table in hexeditor and the function "replace string" (replacing the text string / by _ automatically only in the selected area)

P3Textractor manual: http://www.psdevwiki.com/ps3/Themes_(.p3t)#P3Textractor

  • Notes
    • P3Textractor renames .dds file extensions to .gim in the extraction process... so is needed to change back the file extensions manually to .dds for further edits in other programs
    • This same trick with P3Textractor can be used with .raf files

Raw extractors

Generic Tiny little extractor

Theses generic tiny little tools extract blindly (they just don t want to stop) & embedded (and so, output bigger files when it s not) files and are means to be tiny and independent. Extremely Heavily based on an MPO splitter by Christian Steinruecken. Formats supported DDS/MNU/JPG/MPO/PNG (and virtually any other by modifying the source code)

http://rghost.net/49340892 (include Code-Compile-Credit. Drag and drop your file into them) & mirror links: http://mir.cr/0R78ED3U

QRC Compilers

There are no compilers for .qrc files, the commonly used method consist in patching settings values in text strings (or to inject the modded files) with a hexeditor over the original .qrc file

This limits the mods to patches than never exceeeds the size of the original data... in the case of patching an area with an smaller patch is recommended to fill the original "trash" data with zeroes

Patching strings in hexeditor

Mostly used with the settings inside .mnu files

First extract the files with some of the extractor tool, open the .mnu files in notepad++ to be able to read the settings in a easy way

Select the string you want to modify and "copy" his name

Open the .qrc file in hexeditor (after ZLIB decompression if needed) and use the search funtion to locate the string you copyed previously

  • Notes
    • Most of the settings inside .mnu files are repeated several times inside the .qrc file because are used in several .mnu files... be sure to patch the correct .mnu file by comparing the rest of the data at his side

Injecting files in hexeditor

Similar than patching a text string, but with a bigger chunk of data

Files inside QRC containers

  • File formats inside QRC containers: (See Multimedia Formats and Tools page for a general description of DDS, GTF, BMP, TGA, and JPEG image formats)
    • ELF (Executable and Linkable Format) See Specifications here: ELF Header and ELF-64 Object File Format
    • BIN (Binary)
    • MNU ?
    • FPO (Fragment program objects)
    • VPO (Vertex program objects)
    • PATH (Camera path)
    • DUMP ?
    • TXT ?
    • INI ?
    • DDS (Direct Draw Surface)
    • GTF (Graphics Texture Format)
    • BMP (Bitmap)
    • TGA (Targa)
    • JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group)
  • QRC related modules in dev_flashvsh/modules/:
    • qglbase.sprx <--- generic
    • qgl_gaia_app.sprx <--- earth animation inside music player
    • qgl_canyon_app.sprx <--- abstract animation inside music player
    • Indirectly related: raf.sprx <--- generic animations
