PAR2 Creation #72
Comments
PAR2 uses gf16 for up to 65535 blocks. The current library only has an gf8 implementation. I am interested in a gf16 engine, but currently does not have the resources to write it. |
Is gf16 used very commonly in places other than PAR2? Or is there a very practical reason to prefer gf16 over gf8? I am somewhat interested in adding this to the Rust port, but I can't seem to find many software/designs that use gf16. |
Has someone managed to verify/repair par2 using this library? Is there anything implementing gf16 in go? |
I feel like this is probably out of scope for the project, but I've been hoping someone can pick up the ideals from the now-dusty PAR2 spec in a way that can be used on USB sticks, in home labs, and on personal/SMB servers. (I also wouldn't mind if someone tacked on subfolder support to PAR2 files by storing relative path in the index, but that's just for future Googlers who come across this project) |
I'm not sure what you mean by "can be used on USB sticks [etc]", but PAR2 supports subfolders just fine, from what I can tell. |
GF16 has been added, but not a PAR 2 compatible one. I do not plan to add another since it will be interior. |
I've tried to find one but is there a project which uses this repo to create PAR2 files? I've been looking for a faster alternative to https://github.com/animetosho/ParPar.
