I have a 6GB file I want to make a 100% recovery file set for. I keep getting the “could not allocate output buffer” failure message. I’ve tried a smaller number of source blocks making the block size high and vice versa, I’ve also tried all the recovery file size options. I don’t want to split the file and I want 100% redundancy is this possible with par2? If so what am I doing wrong?
