Understanding an extracted .ppta file using 7zip

Hi Ruper,

Welcome to Heroes! You would have to listen to each mp3 file separately in order to find out which ones you would need to use. There isn't any way to determine where they were used otherwise.

Always Happy to Help,

Adrian

This might help I hope the screen shot provides enough detail as to where to find the information.

The xml is from slide1.xml.rels as the capture seem to have destroyed the tab text

Adrian,

Realize this is an older post, but I am searching the Articulate KB for a method to use 7zip to pull a ppta file apart, strip out some of the bogus content (Web Objects and audio files that were deleted but still remain in the ppta file which is getting very very large) and put the file back together (compress it I am guessing). 

I've tried to use 7zip to build a .zip file after deleting the content and updating the _rel.lst file, and then rename this zip file to .ppta but I get the error when I try opening and clicking on an Articulate icon/tab, that the project file can't be opened.

What woudl be the steps going from extracting the ppta files using 7zip, to rebuilding/compressing them after pulling out the bogus content? I do not want to have to create a blank ppta file and then copy/paste all the audio in the current project just to clear out the ppta files that seem to grow and grow and grow over time!

Hi Jeff! Looks like I responded to a similar thread here, but again perhaps someone in the community will be able to assist you.
