xocsucram Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 is there a way to have a different upload speed for completed downloads than what active downloads are set? or to have utorrent automatically stop/remove completed downloads from seeding when they are finishedis there something in the Advanced Settings(warning dont modify)section that would let me set this up?i like to leave my client on over night while sleeping and i since i have optimum online cable internet i have plenty of bandwith so i leave utorrent set to unlimited bandwidth up an down, but even with cable, having a torrent finish early in the night and then be seeding at like 500+kbps for 8 hours isnt helping the other active torrents get done as fast as they could. if i was awake i would cap that torrent manually but i cant if in asleepand setting a overall cap for uploading doesnt really help me either cause it slows down all my torrents and my peers.so is there somethign i can do that stops or slows down completed downloads automatically?also, right now i have my files download to 1 location, would the option of "move completed downloads to" stop the seeding process or does utorrent still seed no matter where it saves to?thanks in advance.

DreadWingKnight Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Alternate upload rate while not downloading.Set unlimited while not downloading.Set a reasonable limit while downloading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 You forgot to mention the option under Ctrl-P -> Queueing which allows you to limit your torrents after finishing seeding goals. That is an automated way for you to change the upload limit on your torrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 Even when not downloading (only seeding), it's best to have an upload speed limit that's near the limits of your connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 BUT the point i.e. reason it exists is due to the fact without downloading you don't need to worry about ACKs as much and as such can upload more (usually no more than 6%, but hey that's 6% more than before) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
