japraptor Posted April 15, 2007 Report Share Posted April 15, 2007 The seed while function on my uTorrent doesn't work. I go to a school that severely limits download amounts, so this was one of the best features that I've found. When i upgraded to 1.6.1 build 490 it has stopped working. I think the last time it worked was in a 1.5 version of some sort. Is this just for me? do i need to enable it somewhere that I am just missing? thanks for your help.

Switeck Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 You're probably using FORCED started torrents. Those don't obey seeding limits.Either that or the upload speed when seed while condition is met isn't 0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
japraptor Posted April 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 I don't use forced torrents usually, but thats good to know. my seed while has used several values between 10% and 200% none of them were obeyed. so this is really just a problem that I have? maybe i should just go back to using 1.5....

DreadWingKnight Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 Do you also have an alternate upload rate when seeding goal is reached set?No going back to 1.5 is not a solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 The seed while condition only applies once the torrent finishes downloading...so if you've already exceeded the seed while conditions before the download finishes, it will CONTINUE uploading at least till the download finishes.Also, the seed while condition is an OR rather than an AND. If either condition is true <200% or <4 hours, then continue seeding...not stop whichever comes first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
japraptor Posted April 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 I've got the time condition turned off, or rather set to ignore. So that shouldn't be an issue. Why isn't going back to 1.5 an option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Because we don't provide support for older versions of uT AT ALL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
japraptor Posted April 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 that may be true, but lets be honest, if it works then i wouldn't need the support right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreadWingKnight Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 If you want your torrents to stop when they have met the seeding goal, you need to check the option and set the box to 0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
japraptor Posted April 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 awww, it would be something simple like that. I figured it would default to that like the previous versions. well thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 You're also allowing too many torrents at once unless you ARE uploading 150+ KiloBYTES/sec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
japraptor Posted April 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 easily, campus network allows great speed, its just a 24 hour and 72 hour overall limit that i have to watch out for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
