Thank you for the links. I already knew about rdosplay and rac, but I 
did not know DOSBOX could capture in .raw format.

The raw editing tool will be useful. Much more advanced than my tools. 
Now I dont want to capture all the music again so I'll try to convert 
the .dro files to raw files.

True. What I meant was loop information in the header. (eg: After x
events, go back to address xx in file and continue playing from there).

The raw format does not have title, author, ripper, copyright, company, 
game, comments.. in it's header. I think I will create a similar format
that will use .rax (RAw Extended) file extension. The only difference
with the raw format is that it will have a bigger header. It will be
easy to add support for it in adplug's raw file player.
