Is there any common method for storing multipv results in epd records?

What specific info are you going to save in the epd?

score and pv for each multipv no., and perhaps total time and nodes.

I would suggest to just save multiple epd each with different pv line, although the first 4-fields are the same.

Code: Select all

rnbqkbnr/pppppppp/8/8/8/8/PPPPPPPP/RNBQKBNR w KQkq - ce 15; acs 5; acn 53000; pv e4 e5 ...

rnbqkbnr/pppppppp/8/8/8/8/PPPPPPPP/RNBQKBNR w KQkq - ce 10; acs 5; acn 54000; pv Nf3 Nf6 ...
This way you will not be limited with the available Opcode.
This is also what I have observed in Aquarium GUI.
