Sorry to read you could not have it working. That's correct I do not
have any tape device, the information I provided was just from former
discussion with other users that had the same and approaching concern
and which gave their feedback in this mailing-list, which archive is
open and available:

https://sourceforge.net/p/dar/mailman/message/36155625/
https://sourceforge.net/p/dar/mailman/message/35548551/
https://sourceforge.net/p/dar/mailman/message/36186874/
https://sourceforge.net/p/dar/mailman/message/35030573/
https://sourceforge.net/p/dar/mailman/message/35776798/
and so on...

Maybe you can leverage the experience of others by searching the archive:

https://sourceforge.net/p/dar/mailman/dar-support/

But maybe dar/dar_split is not adapted to your need, then you will have
to find another solution.
