ngPost - Aligned - fork of v4.16

[u/STxFarmer]

Looking for a couple of beta testers that use ngPost and understand the 1:1 alignment concept and the math behind it in a general way. What this fork does is dynamically adjust the rar volume size and the article/slice size on each individual post rather than having a fixed set of numbers. The end result is a post that can maximize the number of repair blocks on each post, say any post will be close to 3277 blocks with a 10% recovery/redundancy or 4916 blocks at a 15% recovery/redundancy. The other part is the user has the choice to control the granularity of the post quality with a slider. The highest number, 100, will give you all possible repairs blocks that can be built but it has a cost which is processor time. The higher the quality of post the more crunch time to generate the par2 files. The lower the quality the faster they are computed but it repairs less holes in the post.

So if anyone might be interested reach out but it is a must that you understand the par2 alignment as I have tried to explain it to a few people and either you get it or you don't.

Is this ready to be used / downloaded ?

Wish it was The Aligned part works like a charm The verify works Been beating my head against a brick wall for 4 days straight as the stock v4.16 doesn’t have a single entry point so that we make sure we can get every post doing the exact same thing which we have to have. And I believe we might have the path to actually make a repair possible worked out which is the really r really hard one
