Sample Structure

Each sample represents one unique audio track with all its associated beatmaps:

{seq_num:06d}.mp3|opus    # Audio file
{seq_num:06d}.json        # Metadata + embedded beatmap charts

JSON Schema

{
  "audio_hash": "sha256_hash_of_audio",
  "audio_length": 167.92,
  "beatmaps": [
    {
      "beatmapset_id": 1,
      "beatmap_id": 75,
      "approved": 1,
      // ...
      "content": "osu file format v14\n..."
    }
  ]
}

Audio files are deduplicated by SHA256 hash. Multiple beatmaps sharing the same audio are grouped into a single sample. In both variants, the hash refers to the original audio.

In adherence to WebDataset conventions, all original audio files share the extension .mp3 regardless of their actual format.

Metadata Fields

Most fields are taken from the osu! API v1 response. The content field contains the full .osu beatmap chart file (UTF-8 encoded).
