.sfv is a text file that lists the crc32's (hash) of the scene release rar files to verify if they are broken/modified in any way. They can sometimes have ascii art in them, or vague info on what topsite the release last went through, but thats rather rare these days. .srr files are created by a program called PyReScene which records exactly how a scene release is rar'd, and with what winrar version to re-create the original release format (rar'd) at a later date. Super useful program for reseeding and cross seeding stuff.
Cool, thanks! Good to know!
Oh, and if you start out with the unpacked files, but don't have a srr file to re-scene them, you can probably find one by searching the release name on srrdb.com. Mileage may vary though.
Cool thanks I'll bookmark it!
