PAR2 received incorrect options, check your Config->Switches

Post by kevindd992002 »

This is the first time I've encountered this error. What does it mean? I don't know which download triggered it because there was a lot in my queue when it happened. My extra core parameters field is set to "t0" like it always has for the past few years.

Yes, but we now use a different par2 program, Multipar (described in the 2.1.0 release notes). It's much faster but also has different command line options. Just remove the t0, Multipar has this behavior by default to not trash disk during verification.

I figured but then I saw that the wiki still has the same info there. I guess it just needs updating :)

The wiki says:
NOTE Not applicable for MultiPar that's included in the Windows release!

Yeah and I thought that meant that the installation is not applicable with the Windows release as those instructions are for macOS. But there's a page where the extra core parameters are still listed, that's the one I'm referring to.

As I re-read the page, I guess I just misunderstood it. Sorry.
