Testing with a DLE that is/was not encrypted. Plain tar, no compression.

amrecover with device "/dev/sg21" works great. I have to confirm the 
tape change after the first files have been extracted, then the changer 
loads the next tape and the next restore step happens. Great.

So to me it looks that my dumptype with both compression and encryption 
is the problem.

I use the script provided by Anton "exuvo" Olsson, he shared it in 
earlier threads here.

The current iteration on this server:

Maybe it hasn't yet been tested with amrecover from multiple tapes?

Or the combination with gzip is a problem.

I'll be happy to share any more debug logs or so.
