I added a new feature and changed some default behavior in this version. I explain the difference below. Be careful to use them. If you see a strange, odd, or wrong behavior, please report with ease. I will fix as possible as I can.
I saw a question about number of recovery files. Max number of recovery blocks was limited to the max source file size. At old time, this limit was made to be similar to QuickPar. I changed the default setting from this version. In old versions, recovery file size was limited by default. If you wanted to disable the limit, you needed to set larger limit size at Limit Size to option. In new version, recovery file size isn't limited by default. If you want to limit, you need to set the limit size at Limit Size to option. I added an option RecoveryFileLimit on MultiPar.ini. If you want to limit recovery file size by the max source file size as same as old versions, add a new line RecoveryFileLimit=1 in the .INI file.
While reviewing my old source code, I found an obsolate point. I omitted one step in verification for speed ago. Because recent CPUs are much faster than before, I enabled searching duplicated blocks at simple verification. When you select Simple verification at Verification level, it may become slightly slow. Most users won't see any difference.
I implemented a new feature. It tries to repair damaged files by over writing recovered blocks directly. It doesn't make temporary files. To enable the feature, select Aligned verification at Verification level option. You must understand good and bad points of this mode. Becasue it's testing period still, I may change the behavior in future.
Pros:
- Fast verification.
- Fast recovery.
- Less disk space.
Cons:
- Backup of damaged files is disabled.
- Less finding available source blocks.
- Cannot treat splited source files.
- Cannot treat additional source files.
- Cannot treat external source files.
- Risk of more data loss at failed recovery.
