Ah, I see. Thank you for the answer. Do you have a timeline of when the changes are expected? I started to use xz, and was able to decompress the files without issue. Messing around with xz and xz-java, I noticed a few other things though. First, xz-java seems much slower. I tested compressing and decompressing a ~1.2 gigabyte file, and xz-java took 17m32.345s compared to xz's 7m7.615s to compress. Decompressing was 0m21.760s to 0m6.223s. Is there anything that can be done to improve the speed of the Java version, or is c just a much more efficient programming language? Also, I noticed that the results of compressing the files were different sizes. They both worked, so I don't know if it's an issue, but it does seem strange. The xz-java one was slightly smaller than the xz one. Thanks again for the help. -- Dennis Ens
