13:37 🔗 Raccoon has joined #internetarchive
13:38 🔗 Raccoon What's the difference between these two download options? https://i.imgur.com/q7j7VsR.png
14:01 🔗 Nemo_bis Raccoon: if you click, you'll find out
14:01 🔗 Raccoon no i wont
14:01 🔗 Nemo_bis too bad
14:02 🔗 Raccoon do I really want to download two multi-gig files just to compare the contents on my end?
14:02 🔗 Raccoon or do I want to ask if someone here could tell me the difference (and purpose) between the two buttons?
14:03 🔗 Nemo_bis the buttons don't start any download if clicked
14:04 🔗 Raccoon yes they do.
14:04 🔗 Raccoon why are you trolling this channel?
14:05 🔗 Nemo_bis it's a bit hidden but you can also hover the format name above, for instance "ZIP", and then click the small arrow to see a list of files
14:07 🔗 Raccoon so, what's the difference between '123 files' and '123 original'
14:07 🔗 Nemo_bis or just go to "show all" so you see everything
14:07 🔗 Raccoon i don't want to see everything
14:07 🔗 Nemo_bis you'll understand immediately if only you look at the list of files
14:07 🔗 Raccoon i want to know why there are original files, and non-original files
14:08 🔗 Raccoon which of the files have been modified, when and why
14:08 🔗 Nemo_bis Now that's an entirely different question; let me find the link to the FAQ
14:09 🔗 Nemo_bis https://help.archive.org/hc/en-us/articles/360014487651-Files-Formats-and-Derivatives-A-Basic-Guide (basic indeed)
14:11 🔗 Nemo_bis If "originals" and "all" files are the same number, most likely it means that the are no derivatives
14:12 🔗 Nemo_bis For instance https://archive.org/details/crossref-pre-1909-scholarly-works doesn't have any derivative file
14:13 🔗 Nemo_bis This is a smaller example, in case you're afraid of clicking big lists of files https://archive.org/details/wiki-anienenet_wiki (7z is never derived AFAIK)
14:15 🔗 Raccoon i see. so 'original' is what the archivist uploaded
14:17 🔗 Nemo_bis ideally but not really
14:18 🔗 Nemo_bis It makes more sense in cases like https://archive.org/details/goodytwoshoes00newyiala which belong to the standard IA scanning workflow
14:19 🔗 Nemo_bis If you just hover the button, the link tells you what formats it's going to include
14:20 🔗 Nemo_bis In the last example it's <https://archive.org/compress/goodytwoshoes00newyiala/formats=JPEG%20THUMB,ARCHIVE%20BITTORRENT,BOOK%20COVER%20IMAGE,METADATA,SINGLE%20PAGE%20PROCESSED%20JP2%20ZIP,MARC,SINGLE%20PAGE%20RAW%20JP2%20ZIP,SCRIBE%20SCANDATA%20ZIP>
14:20 🔗 Nemo_bis The button makes you download the JP2 images even when they're actually derivatives, like in https://archive.org/details/bub_gb_1kZYlhGLdCcC <https://archive.org/compress/bub_gb_1kZYlhGLdCcC/formats=ITEM%20TILE,IMAGE%20CONTAINER%20PDF,ARCHIVE%20BITTORRENT,METADATA,GENERIC%20RAW%20BOOK%20TAR>
14:21 🔗 Nemo_bis So in the end you can only look at the list of files and decide what you need...
