[Suggestion] add option to select compression algorithm Zstandard
Zstd has recently been included in chdman and many emulators support it. It is close to LZMA compression ratio but it decompresses much faster. I read in the chdman documentation it can be enabled for CDs with -c cdzs and for DVDs with -c zstd. Would this be something you could add?
I had a quick try at it and chdman wants its compression algorithm option parameter in a list and I was not able to pass the arguments from tochd to chadman correctly yet. Thank you for the cool tool!
Hi, thanks for the nice words. I use Zstd on a private backup system and know it is really fast. Have read about that chdman supports or will get support for Zstd, but didn't look at it closer. If it is known to work well, I can add an option to enable it. Will definitely look into it soon, just not right now (little busy).
