Thread: Need help extracting

  1. #11
    I have a similar problem with what I assume is an intentionally misnamed post. In my download folder I have these sort of files:

    149188-0.0
    149188-0.0.1
    149188-0.0.2
    149188-0.0.3
    ......
    149188-0.17
    149188-0.17.1
    149188-0.17.2
    ......
    149188-3.1
    149188-3.2
    149188-3.3

    I have 613 files named in this way. When I run the par2 files they say all files are missing except for about 5 of them which it does rename. Is there a method of repairing/renaming/fixing this that I need to know about?

    thanks

    The fix isn't the greatest b/c it's going to take some time, but it works.

    After everything is download, you will have to use quickpar for renaming.

    You'll see a lot of *.par2.* files. ex. 142644-0.par2.1, 142644-0.par2.2, ... They should be 10KB or less in size.

    Run the first *.par2 and within quickpar click the "rename" button, than delete that par2 file.

    Now move to *.par2.1 change the name to *.par2 (so remove the (dot)1 in the file for this example) and open it up with quickpar, do the "rename" option again.

    Just continue doing this, until you have all of the release. It works, just takes some time.

    I think MultiPar is the new way to go. It's better than QuickPar.

    100% This. Quite a bit a faster.

    Yutaka has said he'll provide source; hopefully this will show up in other software sooner rather than later. I think alt.binz uses a custom phpar, and the sab guys can import or build phpar or par2cmdline-tbb (if one isn't included natively), which are pretty fast too. But I digress.

    Looks like you are right, if you just open up one of the pars, for example 142644-1.par2.18 with MulitPar it will work without renaming it.

    QuickPars needs the file renamed, MulitPar will work without renaming it. It does run a bit slower without renaming, but it's a lot easier that way tho.

    Thanks justlooking for the info.

    Thanks Guys. It's so seldom I have to use the manual tools that I forgot I forgot all about Multipar.

    thanks for the help but I just dont think this post is going to work. It is able to rename a few of the files but not many. 50 GB downloaded for nothing!!

    If this 'scheme' was 'by design'... really (!?!?). Way to many 'hoops' to jump through, they might as well have gone the 'encryption via a private website' route.
