Instead, the 880k(DD)-ADFs and 1760K(HD)-ADFs are standard and can be used with both the UAE and a real Amiga (1760K-ADF obviously require an Amiga with HD Floppy drive)

Yes, I know that
.
I was asking why the extended ADFs are 4MB in size instead of the "usual" 2MB (circa) size.
I was
not referring to normal 880KB ADFs, of course.

EDIT2: I can add "official" extended adf multirevolution track support (read-only) if someone needs it for simple weak bits simulation..

I indeed noticed that those ADFs, when RARred, have a 2MB size; if the 4MB files contain redundance, is there a way to obtain a normal, single-revolution extended adf from them?
By the way, Toni, were they obtained using
RAWREAD? I know it very well and used it a lot, but I didn't know it supported "multirevolution"...
(which parameters are needed from the CLI?)
I suppose it's a non-official feature...
