unixtract
Extractor for various file formats.
This project is a fork of theubusu/unixtract, adding extra features and improvements.
This is a tool that is able to extract the contents of various firmware package formats, mostly from TVs and AV devices.
Built in Rust, and made to not depend on any external dependancies, only Rust crates. This way it can work on Windows, Linux and MacOS and even Android.
Please note that this project is still under active development and errors may occur. Feel free to make an issue in that case, or if you have any feature request.
PLEASE NOTE - this program is NOT, and will never be designed for re-packing the extracted files!
About this fork
This fork extends the upstream project with additional features and bug fixes. For the original README and format support details, see the upstream repository.
