Yep, download .chart files from SH, convert them to .mid files

Put that in a folder with the music (guitar.ogg, song.ogg) and the .ini (description file)

.ogg is a music file so use audacity to convert them and you convert the .chart files with a program called Chart2mid.
hope that helped

you have to set an offset by opening your music file in audacity and add silence befor the song starts
just mess with that till you get it right.
btw your welcome

Be careful when doing that, as the quality will lessen a bit each time the file is re-exported due to the fact that Vorbis is a lossy audio codec. (If you re-open the original file each time you try a different amount of silence, this is not a problem.)
