Also, can it use repeating time controls?

Hi Graham,
Use the "-t x" switch, where x is the number of cores. Yes, repeating time controls do work here.

Cheers,

For using the GPU version of LCzero is there any advantage in using anything other than one core ("-t 1")?

Thanks.

Depends on what GPU you have. Default is -t2. Some powerful GPUs are not 100% utilized with 2 threads and needs 3 or 4 (1080ti for example). Others are already 100% utilized with 2 threads.
