Final Fantasy 8's movie files are stored within pak files. The publish.pak contains the Eidos logo. disc1.pak, disc2.pak, disc3.pak, and disc4.pak hold the rest of the fmv movies.
PAK File Structure
The PAK file has no header. Each movie usually contains two BINK videos and a CAM file. A PAK file can contain multiple movies. One BINK file is the low res the other is the high res.
