Also use stdio instead of using $$arc$$s, it's faster
I'm still a massive newbie so got no clue what stdio is, I'll have to research this

Also, srep+lolz+bpk makes bpk useless since any bink data will be put through srep and lolz.
I'm fully aware, the actual order of compressors for that preset is bpk + srep + lolz, but as its my own script I haven't seen the need to change that (I have ~40 copies of it on my system, spread across multiple drives to limit the impact of storage I/O limitations, making it a pain to update all of em since at least 7 instances are running at any given time). Now that I think about it I used to use a mask for the bpk compressor (srep+lolz/$BINK=bpk) until a few months back when I encountered bink video files under different extension names & within archives, and stopped using it as a mask (couldn't be bothered constantly updating the mask), which probably explains the label of the preset.
