What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. create an archive with the following options:
Any Method (-m1 , -m2.... -mx) and using/adding a external compressor (precomp; Srep)
(Used "add protection 1-4%" and "test Archive", but are optional and not vital to reproduce problem. Other internal methods are OK.)
2. convert archive to SFX (.exe) OR create SFX during first compression (using
option in GUI)
3. try to extract archive using the new SFX archive (Fails)
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected: extraction succesful.
What i see: error dialog
"Unsupported compression method:
precomp042:c-:t-j+rep:1gb+exe+lzma:176mb:normal:bt4:128"
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
freearc 0.67alpha December 12 2012;
Win 7 x64 SP1;
Core i5 2430M 2.4Ghz
4GB RAM
Please provide any additional information below.
Seems that using "Precomp" or Srep (both "external/experimental compressor" in
GUI) the created SFX Archive is not able to be decompressed to original
archive/files.
Opening SFX with Freearc 0.67 allows user to decompress the archive with No
damage/lost data.
