Grenger Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 Ok, the problem leading up to this was just me being stupid and changing the folder name the torrent was downloading to. That is fixed.Now, I have two torrents running. One is working fine now after I fixed that problem...but the other...is well...gone kinda. During this problem I tried doing a Force Re-Check. And now, it seems that the torrent has completly started over. This is about a 6gig download, so don't really want to just brush it off, seeing as it was at 60% before I did this. The files, and the data in them, are still there, they are shows, and I can still watch the parts I could before.What I don't get is why is says there are no "parts" there. The % of downloaded is completly back at 0.0%. And in the Availability bar, it showed complete red, no parts there, but now it is starting the download over. Now with all that out there, if you are confused yet, here is my question. Is this normal, and will it just download what I am missing? or will I need to restart it somehow so it picks up what was already downloaded?BTW, the downloaded section is completly white, no blue at all in it.

Ultima Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 Make sure it's still pointed at the correct directory (not sure why it would change, but hey, odder things have happened). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grenger Posted August 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 It seems to be, triple checked with everyway I can think of. Went to the "Open Containing Folder.." option on the right-click drop down menu, still opens the same folder. This really has me baffled, I am hoping that once it gets to the parts it already has, it will just skip them, and jump in the %.But idk, anymore ideas?And thank you for the help so far, really appreciate this.

Ultima Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 Right click > Advanced > Set download location...When you tell it where to save, if the folder is located at C:\downloads\THE_FOLDER, then point to THE_FOLDER and not just C:\downloads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 Stop the torrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grenger Posted August 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 Tried that also, also tried restarting it using the actual torrent file. This is extremly odd to me. Tried pausing it as well, and also tried force starting it from the stopped status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 Do the files have any odd extensions on them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grenger Posted August 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 The files are .OGM, which is a video codec. No weird extensions that I am seeing.Left it downloading overnight. Its at 13.7%, and for a 6gig file, I would consider that kinda fast. The highest its got up to is 30kb/s. Its downloading at that speed right now, and says I have a little under two days left. Not sure if what this means exactly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 If you're 100% sure you're pointing to the right location, then I've no clue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
