Compressed rars

Thu, 18 Jun 2026 21:51:34 +0000

High, I am trying to construct scene rars that use compression.

So I need a folder with a rar executable in it, but I don't know what name you have to rename the rars, I sussed it out once-upon a time about 10 years ago, but I stopped collecting scene releases, but after trying it several times again more recently I couldn't remember how I got it going or what I had to rename the rars, can someone please explain it to me.

I think this might have something to do with it,

Usage: preprardir.exe [input dir] [output dir]
This tool will extract RAR executables in preparation for compressed RAR support for pyReScene.
Example usage: preprardir.exe Z:\rar\windows C:\pyReScene\rar

Options:
—version show program's version number and exit
-h, —help show this help message and exit
-b, —beta extract beta versions too

Any hints to reconstruct PS5 scene releases?

Sat, 23 May 2026 16:58:44 +0000

Hi all,
I'm trying to rebuild PS5 scene releases (the playable releases by DUPLEX, UNLiMiTED, LiGHTFORCE).
The biggest issue here is probably the format they come in after extraction, which are all loose folders and files.

I don't have the biggest knowledge about ReScene, whatever goes beyond finding the right RAR version and fiddling with mt-set is a huge unknown for me.
I managed to rebuilt smaller releases, which only contain one file (fixes) or PS4 releases (which are also only one installable package file).

WinRAR 5.91 without any mt-set option did the job for Metaphor.ReFantazio.Update.v1.13.PS4-DUPLEX - I'd be surprised if they use different versions/settings for all their releases.
No matter what I do or try, it just doesn't click - I tried my luck with smaller releases first like:

Record.of.Lodoss.War.Deedlit.in.Wonder.Labyrinth.PS5-DUPLEX
Arkanoid.Eternal.Battle.PS5-DUPLEX
Severed.Steel.PS5-DUPLEX

So I was wondering, if anyone of you tried the same and maybe had any luck or could push me into the right direction here.
Any hints what else I could try would be appreciated!

Would be awesome to reconstruct them.

Thank you and regards,
iCEQB

srrGUI error: Creating .srr fails due to double quotes in FLAC Vorbis tags

Tue, 21 Apr 2026 22:39:09 +0000

Hi! I was really frustrated because I spent days trying to get srrGUI to work with my FLAC files (when creating the .srr file). It worked fine with other audio files downloaded from the internet, but not with mine.

I finally realized the issue was the VORBIS TAG in the title: What Is Love (7" Mix). It contained double quotes. Once I removed them, it worked perfectly!

Is there any documentation regarding this issue? What if I actually want to keep the double quotes in the tag?

change CRC value in SRR file

The .mkv file has the correct size in bytes but the CRC checksum is off, so I'd like to change it in the .SRR file.

Thanks!

Looking for album I created VA-Katalist_Presents-Styles_United-2002-CMS

Sat, 08 Jun 2024 06:11:47 +0000

I am looking for an album I created years ago, wondering if anyone can point em in the right direction? Below is the info about it, thank you so much if anyone can point me in the right direction! I had it on an old computer and external HD years and years ago, but had many years of health problems to deal with and when I went to check the computer and External drive it was gone. I see SRRDB put up the SRR file of it in 2014, curious if anyone can point me in the right direction of getting a copy of it all these years later? I know it is a long shot but thought I would ask. Any Torrent? IRC channel? FTP? Website?

Thanks so much to anyone who can point me in the right direction or that responds, take care.

Can someone help me understand more about RSS files?

Wed, 29 May 2024 12:43:09 +0000

I just started learning about .rss files and I don’t know all about it yet. I have some .rss files that I’m guessing, contain some videos. I’ve been able to extract them with another extracting tool, that would extract the files as an MP4 or MKV, but the files would have no data after extracting. On the site that I got them, I saw that the files were over 1GB.

I’m on Mac as well and I haven’t seen your Rescene application being able to download on Mac. What could I do to open my files on Mac, is there a version of your app available for macOS? Also, would the actual Rescene app do what I did but extract the files with actual data on them?

Missing RAR-files and Archived files

Sun, 21 Apr 2024 12:26:12 +0000

Hello

Sometimes certain elements like rar-files or archived files are missing in SRR.
For example on https://www.srrdb.com/release/details/INSIDE.eShop.NSW-BigBlueBox, this informations are missing.
Is this related to a badly generated SRR file?
Is it possible to upload a news version for the same release?

Thanks.

Retag not working, not sure why

Mon, 29 Jan 2024 03:59:37 +0000

I had this all working fine and used it for years on my old Windows 8.1 machine. I'm on a new Windows 11 machine and I can't get anything to work. I've installed Python and set my PATH. When I run retag in Powershell from the unzipped directory it just loads to a new line, without trying to do anything. The same thing happens with srr and srs.

When I try to use Command Prompt I get an error that, "The code execution cannot proceed because MSVCR100.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem." I've verified MSVCR100.dll is on my system, it's actually in several directories including system32. I even reinstalled the C++ redistributables (2010 and 2015-2022).

Not sure what the issue is, anyone have any ideas?

Missing volumes?

Mon, 01 Jan 2024 18:34:14 +0000

I got the exe files, but as the command line was hard to figure out, I picked srrgui.exe to reconstruct the rar file. From the website and from the program, it tells me about the sfv, the nvo and the srs files, and it also tells me about the original rar file as well as the r00 to r22 files, but as soon as I start the process, the rar file shows up without the other parts.

I figured that maybe it was downloaded all at once, but when I try to extract the mkv file inside, it asks for the next volume, which isn't anywhere in my computer. I feel like I missed a step, as I'm completely new to this, but those being missing, I can't open the mkv file at all. I just downloaded the latest winrar and am not sure I follow the tutorials properly (kind of a visual learner on this one, wished there was a video tutorial on how to do it).

Does anyone know what I must do for all the volumes to show up so that I can properly get my file extracted?

Can't rebuild Splinter.Cell.Chaos.Theory-RELOADED

Sun, 10 Dec 2023 16:09:55 +0000

Hi all,

I'm trying to rebuild Splinter.Cell.Chaos.Theory-RELOADED but non of the RAR versions (184 version tried) match the packer that RELOADED used.
I read that RELOADED has some kind of custom packer and that this issue has been resolved in 2016 (https://bitbucket.org/Gfy/pyrescene/issues/107/hi2u-and-reloaded-rar-files).
Is there any flag that forces pyRescene to try the RELOADED modifications while testing for a compatible RAR version?
I saw in the source code that it was tested with Street.Fighter.V-RELOADED which was released 10 years after Splinter.Cell.Chaos.Theory-RELOADED - so I hoped that Splinter Cell won't be an issue.
Currently I don't know what to do from here :(

Manual reScene using RAR 5.50 and above

Fri, 17 Nov 2023 03:03:39 +0000

Hello, everyone.

I am looking for some information or documentation on how to manually reScene unpacked scene release.

What I know that a command prompt is definitely used with some specific switches to create rar files.
Example:

rar_version.exe a -m1 -mdG -mt4 -vn -v250000000b release_name.rar release_name.iso
rar_version.exe a -m1 -mdG -s- -ds -mt1 -vn -o+ -ep -idcd -vn -v11766322b release_name.rar release_name.iso

Yet, CRC32 sums never match when I try to verify obtained results with SFV files stored at srrDB.

Does anyone can provide a few examples of such a command prompt that are typical for a Scene Group (e.g. Fairlight or Codex)? Or guide where I can find them.
I know that srr files actually contain some hints of what RAR version (Windows, Linux etc.) was initially used for packing a Scene Release and sometimes it is necessary to play with switches (for example, changing numbers for: -mt1 or -mt3 etc) to guess the correct command prompt.
However, I am so confused of what other switches could look like and a number of tries the guessing process may take. Not to mention that different RAR versions add even more variability for manual reScening.

I have been using srrGUI / pyReScene for some time and know that sometimes to find a good RAR is a pain in the neck. However, due to inability to reScene any releases after packed with RAR 5.50, I am wondering how others do it. Yes, I know that such manual reScene is rather a method based on a trial and error. But, I believe that more experienced folks know a few tricks for each Scene Group to begin with. On the other hand, I have a feeling that such command prompts should be pretty similar for each Scene Group (except for a size of a rar and a level of compression that change depending on each release).

Any assistance will be highly appreciated.

help reconstructing my un rared files with my generated srr using thegui

Sun, 02 Jul 2023 01:12:29 +0000

I'm having trouble when trying to repack my iso file after I've generate the srr from the packed rars using the pyrescene gui.

Then I unpack my release and put the iso and srr in the same folder an when trying to reconstruct back to rars I get nothing…

any help would be much applicated

SRR: "The file does not exist"

Tue, 13 Dec 2022 01:07:11 +0000

So I got a "srrGUI-aio2019-11" pack and tried to use srr.exe on an .srr file with the command "..\srr -z -t temp2".
It says a file, that is inside the generated RAR, is missing. Manually extracting does not seem to work as I got a CRC error.
Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
