method1 is the command and options e.g. a -ep1 -r -ed -xaudio
method2 is the compression method you want to use e.g. -mlzma:a1:mfbt4:d158m:fb273:mc1000:lc8
srep works but if you tweak your arc.ini, will fix this problem though.
here is the
freearc documentation
you can add them by using this method if you want to take the whole folder a -ep -r -ed
Folder has 10 files no problem, here is an example
FreeArcFile1={src}\Output\
Data.cab;Source:Folder\3.File;Option:a -ep1;Method:-msrep+lzma:a1:mfbt4:d158m:fb273:mc1000:lc8
FreeArcFile2={src}\Output\
Data.cab;Source:Folder\5.File;Option:a -ep1;Method:-msrep+lzma:a1:mfbt4:d158m:fb273:mc1000:lc8

Data.cab;Source:Folder\6.File;Option:a -ep1;Method:-msrep+lzma:a1:mfbt4:d158m:fb273:mc1000:lc8
