Some newer OEM firmware files, even for existing devices, have the

found at 0x1014, the alternative offset at 0x1050 is tried.

Would've been handy if you had mentioned some examples.
Via the forum I found TL-WPA8631P V3 and TL-WPA8630 V2:
https://www.tp-link.com/support/download/tl-wpa8631p/v3.8/#Firmware
https://www.tp-link.com/support/download/tl-wpa8630/v2/#Firmware
These images have a very suspicious looking '?NEW' at position 0x14, right where
the old header used to end. Can this be used to discriminate between the two
formats instead?
The patch seems to only implement the new format for image conversion to
sysupgrade files (-z), but that isn't mentioned in the commit message either. I
think it's best if the other input (-x and -i) options would also support the
new format.
Unfortunately, I don't have access to one of the affected devices. I
just fixed the "-z" for a forum user and got confirmation that it worked
for him. I will try my best to fix it for "-x" and "-i", but I have no
clue on the changed (?) header format either.
Regards,
Andreas
