Creation of CBZ vs CBR files

<< < (2/2)

Thanks Snard for that info on how to change Winrar default from Rar to Zip.  ;D

Can save headaches when you would forget to change, then tried to upload.  >:(

JonTheScanner:
The way I make zip or rar files is to go into the folder, highlight all the files, right click on them and choose the appropriate command which varies as to which program you actually have.

That's how I make Snard happy. which is my prime goal in life.

narfstar:
If only the files you want are in the same folder you can save a step by right clicking on the folder instead of highlighting the files. A step saved is a step earned :P

I'm a newcomer here so probably don't have much say  ;) but that's the way I like them done.

I've encountered a number of CBR files where when I've put them in my comic book reader, all I get is a folder.  The person doing the compressing compressed the folder, not the files and my reader can't go that extra level to reach the files.  I can fix it myself by uncompressing the file, getting rid of the troublesome folder and zipping the individual files, then recompressing, but I'd rather not have to do all that extra work when I've download a bunch of files. 

narfstar:
You are correct but we do not complain. It is far less trouble to go through on the end than the effort the scanner had to put in at the start. We are thankful for their efforts in whatever form they upload them.
