Thanks for the clarification, but still you have not asked for any detailed record dump, so it should only dump summary info in ASCII. Do you have a small test Volume that you could send me? You can email me anything up to several GB. That way, I can test it here with the exact data that you have. After looking at the output, I suspect that the plugin name record is probably binary, so I'll need to teach bls (and possibly some of the other tools) how to properly display it. Generally, it is simply adding an appropriate case in a switch().
