@Wayne-Workman let me save you the trouble of testing:
case $imgFormat in
6)
# ZSTD Split files compressed.
zstdmt --ultra $PIGZ_COMP < $fifo | split -a 3 -d -b 200m - ${file}. &
;;
5)
# ZSTD compressed.
zstdmt --ultra $PIGZ_COMP < $fifo > ${file}.000 &
;;
4)
# Split files uncompressed.
cat $fifo | split -a 3 -d -b 200m - ${file}. &
;;
3)
# Uncompressed.
cat $fifo > ${file}.000 &
;;
2)
# GZip/piGZ Split file compressed.
pigz $PIGZ_COMP < $fifo | split -a 3 -d -b 200m - ${file}. &
;;
*)
# GZip/piGZ Compressed.
pigz $PIGZ_COMP < $fifo > ${file}.000 &
;;

this is the code that the image format setting gets used for on uploads. the default partclone image format is “1” partimage is “0”
as you can see, literally the same thing is done on an upload with either of those two settings set with regard to how the image is captured.
