Well, I can't speak for them, but I have taken those files into Cool Edit and reversed them...still sounds like jibberish.....I was planning on playing around with some filters and things, but haven't had the chance yet....I'll keep you all posted if I find anything...

This is speculation of course, but the singing in yshkGai.swf sounds Scandinavian to me -- possibly Norwegian -- which is somewhat corroborated in that Askild (of askild.wmv) appears to be a Norwegian (male) first name.

ditto that, Molecularr. All the language looks like some nordic language to me.

It might be Kalaallisut? It sounds like it, but doesn't really look like it.

Is that second one also Turkmen? I'm also finding a lot to do with Pakistan, so maybe it's transliterated Urdu?

Anyway, I definitely agree that the language route is likely to be more productive than looking for a code. Do you get anything from "ra nnra koldaaj, jal hasya adjnak ny nukvad"?

For the phrase, "ra nnra koldaaj, jal hasya adjnak ny nukvad" -- maybe Hungarian?

Googling "adjnak" brings up about 100 pages in Hungarian, but automatic translators don't seem to know it. "koldaaj" may mean "to panhandle" according to one translator, but when I translated it back (i.e. "panhandle" in English to Hungarian), the word it produced was "koldul".

Maybe that's a conjugation or something, or perhaps the tranlation software just thought it was a close enough match.

Still looking ...

Okay, so "hāsya" looks like sanskrit for joking, laughter, or joy.

Also, in sanskrit, "jal" may be water, and "ra" may be acquiring or possessing or something like that.

I just sent an email as well, asking them if they think there's something coming that would require fighting for a future.

As far as the chinese text, it appears to be just translating what the guy's saying into Chinese.

"Think of the possibility that you have no future" (askild.wmv)
translates to ...
想到可能没有你的未来
... which has enough characters in common with the subtitle to convince me it's the same thing.

Likewise, "How are you going to live your life?" (asjkdu.wmv)
translates to ...
你怎么生活呢
... which is close enough for me.
