    The problem is not with single RAR files. See this pic. I can't extract the split RAR archive with right click menu. If it was there, there is not reason to keep WinRAR installed :(

    I seem to be able to do that, I have the 7zip context menu for split rar archives. I can use it to extract the archive.

    If you have enabled the 7zip context menu it should work.
    :yes:


    out of curiosity, is the file in your screenshot in vorbis (.ogg) format. :confused:

    I think so. All my attempts to convert it to good old XviD+MP3 (Thaaththa wants to watch it on the DVD Player) have failed. Audio and Video end up out of sync. :(

    Wow. I just tried extracted Ocean's 13 I downloaded couple of days ago. As usual, it is a split RAR archive. And 7-zip could extract it. Weird stuff.

    I'm not quite sure about the problem you have, maybe these will help

    This is a guide to convert avi to a DVD

    It's werid to encode a dvd in theora/ogg format unless anyone is a opensource fanatic. :lol:

    BTW, I did some tests yesterday.

    Test 1:
    Compress a ~70MB folder with few SWF files with WinRAR and 7-zip
    Results: WinRAR took 39 seconds, 7-zip x64 took only 5 seconds!!! 7-zip resulted with higher compression ratio as well.

    Test 2:
    Compress a folder with mp3 files. Folder size was about 90MB.
    Results: WinRAR took 40 seconds, 7-zip x64 took only 8 seconds!!! 7-zip resulted with higher compression ratio as well.

    Simply stunning results....:shocked:

    XviD is open source, rite?

    Yes it is an os alternative to DivX. :D

    But the codecs developed by http://www.xiph.org/ is the hallmark of opensourcing multimedia. So a fanatic might go for them before trying others. :lol:

    Some linux distros like Fedora doesn't support non opensource formats and they doesn't even have ntfs support out of the box. :( Excellent choice for fanatics. :lol:

    The 7z format is known to give high compression ratios :D Also 7zip gives more options than winrar in compressing a file.

    I never believed the stats posted on the 7zip homepage, but if you get those results I'll have to believe 7zip is best compression program. Too bad it doesn't have proper linux support. I couldn't get p7zip to work on linux :(

    I converted to ZIP format. I don't like 7z format.
    Maybe 64bit helps, but 5-10 times speed improvement can't be caused by it alone. BTW, 32bit 7-zip is 1.8-2 times slower than 64bit 7-zip.

    Dammm! You are correct.

    on 32 bit, Rar better than 7zip

    Actually, no. Still, 7zip was faster in my system. But remember, different processors handle them differently and probably different families from one manufacturer do too.

    I remember in the AthlonXP/P4 days, P4's faired better with Winzip and AXPs faired better with WinRAR.

    WinZip = coded by C/C++
    7Zip = coded by C/C++
    Winrar = coded by Borland Delphi

    That’s why the speed diff.
    But the speed doesn’t mean all the things.

    In my case rar is still better.
