dudeboyz Posted December 13, 2005 Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 I saw a message that said SEEDING [F] and don't know what it means. I tried a search but could not find the [F] thing. Could someone explain?Thanks.BTW, it would be really, really cool to have a separate PDF file or something that worked as a detailed product manual so we would not have to ask so many questions.

jroc Posted December 13, 2005 Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 That might be forced seeding, if im not mistaken. Like forced downloading. I have no torrents at the moment to test this, tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudeboyz Posted December 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 don't torrents auto-seed when done though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jroc Posted December 13, 2005 Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 They do. Thats why I wish I had some torrents ready for seeding to test this.........If u have some torrents ready for seeding, hit force start and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben Posted December 13, 2005 Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 i believe it makes that torrent immune to the queue settings you have set in uTorrent.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted December 13, 2005 Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 Forced torrents bypass the queue and seeding priority settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudeboyz Posted December 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 Thanks for the feedback guys. Much appreciated.I'm finding that for really popular torrents with lots of seeders (like TV shows) I seed for about 4 hours to be helpful. That in addition to it uploading the entire time I'm downloading.With torrents that don't have very many seeders, like old time radio shows, I usually seed for 12 to 24 hours, sometimes longer depending, to help others get the entire download so they can seed if they have more upload speed. I only have 384k upload on my ADSL so am not as well equipped for lots of uploading / seeding by comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
