Guitar Pro 6 was released a few days ago and with it comes a new guitar pro file format: GPX. Hopefully the next version of tuxguitar will support these files. In order to do that we will have to figure out how to open these GPX files.
The best way I can think of is an open collaborative effort.
So to start off, if you don't own a copy of GP6, you can download some sample GPX files here:

I already startet analysing the GPX file format. They changed it completely. It also seems that it is encoded somehow. There aren't any unicode strings in the file. But I found a really interesting bit in the install directory. There are XSL files describing parts of the file structure!!

It seems to be an encoded (not necessarily a compressed) XML file. My guess is, that when you open the file with GP6, it gets decoded and is then matched with the XML schema file (gpif.xsd) to make sure the content is valid.
Once someone has figured the encoding algorithm it should be quite easy to read GPX files :)

Hello !
Just a quick and dirty answer, because I'm in hollyday with no computer.
I'm the one who created GPX binary layout. GPX are compressed files corresponding to a container filesystem, with at least one file inside named score.gpif.
Compression is a very simple home made dynamic dictionnary compression scheme. File starts with "BCFZ" for compressed files and "BCFS" for uncompressed one.
For compression, simply consider file as a binary stream. BCFZ singature is followed by the decompressed length on 32 bits. Then you'll find a succession of compressed and uncompressed chunks. As far as I remember, a 0 means "raw content follows", and 1 means "compressed content follow". For uncompressed chunks (starting with 0), you'll find two bits giving you length in bytes of the following raw content. For compressed, four bits gives you an integer P, then two words of P bits follow named OFFSET and LENGTH, so content is previously uncompressed content found OFFSET bytes later.
I know that those informations are a little bit raw, but with no source code I cannot do so much ;-)
uncompressed resulting file is a little more difficult to explain, but basically, it's just like a little harddisk with files in it, starting with a FAT saying which block are free to write or not. I'm sure you'll understand format easily ;-)

Hi guys..
bSr43, thanks for the info!!
Doesn't it use any known compression algorithm ?? I don't it at all.

No, sorry, this is not a known algorithm you could find in any library. But implementation following these rules should be written on 30 lines of C ;-)
there was no vital need to use something that was home made, but that was the choice we made to go faster (we already had code written).

Will the uncompressed score.gpif file be a text/xml file ?
I'll try to investigate it this weekend.. i'm not sure at all, when you say "compressed and uncompressed chunks... 0 = uncompressed, 1 = compressed".. this 0/1 is the result of a read "bit" or "byte"..
thanks for your help

Sounds very interesting bSr43. I like the idea of a file-system within a file (like thumbs.db). Did the songmodel change as well (sure it did, but how much). Will we be able to integrate the new format into the old songmodel?
@Julian: I'm quite sure they are xml files as there are xslt files within the install directory which are used for file converting.
I'm wondering why one of my posts are missing in this thread. As I remember I answered twice :(

Hi!
I would proudly like to say, I've reached the first goal. From the eleven files at http://community.livejournal.com/jrock_tabs/802580.html I can decode all into seperate files, which are (until now)
score.gpif, misc.xml, BinaryStylesheet, LayoutConfiguration and PartConfiguration.
Next step will be to look inside the content of all this stuff.
However, the whole thing is quite strange:
* proprietary "archive" format (they call it "little harddisk"), which wastes a lot of space.
[ my result from "09. Relax Over.gpx" : total 565252 used 517352 waste 47900 (8.4%) ]
* proprietary compression format, which isn't very strong (winrar manages to compress the content more than by 71% better than GPX)
and some kind of obfuscated (some bits are hi-endian, others are lo-endian, without any logical motivation),
* Looks like there is no kind of security like CRC32 or something similar. So you can only assume, the file is correct, if the reader does not crash
I really dont understand, why the GP-Team does not use the wellknown standard to put the main xml-file + supporting other files into a zip archive, as this is "good-practice" in nearly every software, which processes XML. Examples are OpenOffice or also capx. Using zip-archiv would make it very easy to read and write GPX files with almost any programming languages on almost any operating system.
But maybe, thats just what they wanted to prevent :-/

I'm already working on a GPX File Reader based on the lua scripts of Bassklampfe. My holidays just began und now I've time for analysis. There's only one method in those scripts which I don't understand. It seems this method is a kind of workaround for replacing the missing bitwise operators in lua.

UPDATE: I've translated Bassklampfe's code into C#
and Java which allows me to extract the files within the GPX File. I also started to analyze the most important file: score.gpif
This xml file contains all song information we need to parse the file within the old song model. And the best thing is: Arobas provides the XML Schema file of this xml file (%GP6_INSTALLDIR%/xsl/gpif.xsd) This makes it easy to understand the different values. Tomorrow I'll start writing the XML parser.
Stay tuned for further updates.

@Danielku15: I'm pleased to hear, my script was helpful for you as a template for your code. Sorry for the issue with the bitops, but I did not have the luabits lib at that place, where I worked on the code.
In the meantime I also ported my code to a C-library, which is now called from my script (which gave an enormous speedup ). And my Beta-Version of PriMus is now able to import GPX-Files. I still have some minor task like "looking up the midi-channels" etc, but the big work seems to be done. (I managed to extract the xml from gpx-files into a similar data structure as I get when reading gp3-5 files.)
By the way: I still have issues at the end of the bitstream while decompression. With almost every file I get a potential short read for the very last chunk. My workaround is to assume, everything is fine, when i get to the last bytes of the bitstream, but I'm not really happy with this solution. Question: Did YOU find any clear indication for "End-Of-Compressed-Data"?
Regards from Hamburg, Germany Jørgen

I'm still not any further than you. At my current work I'm trying to optimize your code and get rid of some loops which are not needed in my opinion.
For example this strange loop at line 127 of your lua script surely can be optimized. I'm confused why this data repetition on line 138 is really needed. I tried some other algorithms for reading those chunks.
Currently you don't use the want_size variable. I'm sure we should compare the count of read bytes to this expected size.

SVN as in subversion; it means he downloads the code and compiles it.

If u guys are using Iphones/Ipads which had beed cracked, theres a best way to read those . gpx files
1st - download guitar pro ( newest version ) from Installous - a ( illigal) program to download.
2nd - u need to make sure that u have a laptop or a computer where your .gpx files are stored + using the same net.
3 - Choose " + Add " in G.Pro on iphones/pad and follow the instruction produced there then u will be able to open ur .gpx files.
Hope u guys succeed in the 1st time ( btw my English is very bad so ... )

That's a good question. The main developer started to commit new changes, and some other people are working on it as well. The latest SVN version of TG has some cool, new features.
But I don't know, why this stuff hasn't been released yet..

Times correspondent Anthony Shadid dies in Syria
By CRISTIAN SALAZAR, Associated Press Writer – 19 minutes ago
NEW YORK (AP) — New York Timesgucci outlet
online correspondent Anthony Shadid had been shot in the West Bank in 2002 and kidnapped for six
days in Libya last year, but it was an apparent asthma attack that killed the two-time Pulitzer Prize winner in
Syria while he was reportingGucci

Shadid, who died Thursday at age 43, strove to capture untold stories in Middle East conflicts from Libya to Iraq.
Most recently, he managed to get through the border area in Turkey adjoining Syria's Idlib Province with the aid
ofGucci Bamboo smugglers,
the Times said.
Times photographer Gucci Belt

followed by a more severe attack a week later on the way out of the countryNike Zoom LeBron Soldier.
"I stood next to him and asked if he was OK, and tNike Zoom LeBron IIIhen he collapsed," Hicks told the
Times.
Hicks said that Shadid wasGucci
Boston unconscious and that his breathing was "very faint" and "very shallow." He said that
after a few minutes he could see that Shadid "was no longer breathing."
Hicks later carried Shadid's body to Nike Zoom Soldier II JamesTurkey after this latest
attack, the newspaper saidNike Zoom

"Anthony was one of our generation's finest reporters," Times Publisher Arthur Sulzberger said in a statement. "He
was also an exceptionally kind and generous humanNike Zoom Lebron VI Low being. He brought to his readers
an up-close look at the globe's many war-torn regions, often at great personal risk. We were fortunate to have
Anthony as a colleague, and we mournNike Zoom Lebron VI High his death."
Lebanon's Prime Minister Najib Mikati wrote on his Twitter accountNike Zoom Lebron VII: "Sincere condolences to journalist
Anthony Shadid's (RIP) family, friends & New York Times colleagues. I've known and admired him personally. N.M."
Shadid's father, Buddy Nike

"(But) he was walking to the border because it was too dangerous tNike Zoom Lebron VII Lowo ride in the car," the father
said. "He was walking behind some horses — he's more allergic to those than anything else — and he had an asthma
