Python Script to create .mmp from .mmpz file (LMMS)
```python
import zlib
input_file = "input.mmpz"
output_file = "output.mmp"
with open(input_file, "rb") as f_in:
f_in.seek(4)
data = f_in.read()
# Try different decompression strategies
decompressed_data = None
for wbits in [
-15,
15,
32 + 15,
]: # raw deflate, standard zlib, automatic gzip/zlib detection
try:
decompressed_data = zlib.decompress(data, wbits=wbits)
break
except zlib.error:
continue
if decompressed_data is not None:
with open(output_file, "wb") as f_out:
f_out.write(decompressed_data)
print(f"Success! Decompressed and saved to {output_file}")
else:
print(
"Error: Could not decompress data. The first 4 bytes skipped might be incorrect, or the compression format is different."
)
```

When lmms dump fails, this can still survive converting the large .mmpz files.
