The translator worked perfectly.

RAR is supported, but your files may be compressed with RAR5, which is currently not supported.
Try using your decompression software to determine the format. You could also try and recompress your files,
and select anything besides RAR5 as the compression algorithm.

I was unsure whether RAR thumbnails were supported because searching the README didn’t provide a clear answer. After seeing a response, I searched the Issues section and found the information at the very bottom. It’s a pity that RAR5 thumbnails are not supported. I hope the licensing issue can be resolved soon.

Yeah, it would be great to have RAR5 support in Icaros, but the proprietary license of the format makes it very annoying for
developers to work with.

I should probably create a list in the readme of all filetypes that is known to work with Icaros. 🤔
