aviramof Posted September 20, 2014 Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 my problem is like this after adding a torrent I went to the files tab at the bottom of the screen I marked some files to be skipped and yet they were not skipped but downloaded as if I didn't marked nothing. This is the second time it happens to me and I don't understand why. it simply seem to be that the option do not download doesn't really do her job. Thanks in advance.

aviramof Posted September 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 About 440MB per file I have downloaded an entire season and already saw the first four episodes so I tried to skipped them and not download them again but it didn't worked.

DTG Posted September 27, 2014 Report Share Posted September 27, 2014 I have ran into a similar problem, with the inclusion that file priority cannot be set for individual files. Appears as tho Prioritize by File Oder is stuck on and cant be changed. Not all torrents are behaving this way, some do have full control, others do not. build 3.4.2. edit: its prioritizing by file size, largest file to smallest. wow so wierd...

DreadWingKnight Posted September 27, 2014 Report Share Posted September 27, 2014 its prioritizing by file size, largest file to smallest. wow so wierd...That's the file order of that particular torrent then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTG Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 That's the file order of that particular torrent then.I'd prefer to set my own priority, but uT wont let me do that... If that is something that can be done by creating a torrent, maybe it shuold be fixed? I would hate to download a torrent with a known virus file and not be able to skip downloading that file becuase this issue was ignored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 If the virus is small enough that it fits within a cross-file piece, you'll end up downloading it anyway. Nothing can be done to avoid that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aviramof Posted October 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 yes but I didn't downloaded small files I download 1.3gb of unwanted files and they were all big files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
