1c3d0g Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 Maybe parts of the file you want are contained in the other files? :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICleolion Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 When you says its downloading parts of the file, do you mean the first/last pieces of the file, or other pieces? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodStaindHurricane Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 I hate to bump such an old thread, but I couldnt find anything else more recent quickly in the forums regarding this behavior. Since updating to 1.4, I've noticed file selection soesnt seem to be working as it did in the last stable build. Single files such as jpg's (e.g. dvd covers included in a movie torrent) are set to skip, but download anyway. This was not the case in 1.3, when unselecting files, or at least, not that I can recall seeing. Forgive me if its been gone over already since the release of 1.4...

Firon Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 That's because most files share piece boundaries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
