Seeding Priority/Stop Seeding


scholar

Recommended Posts

I use µTorrent 1.3 (Build 364) for the third day now, and I have to tell you: the developers did a great job! thanks!

I have found a bug (because I believe this is not how it supposed to work, and its also repeating/reproducible).

it is in the system that should be stopping the upload, when the upload ratio is meeting certain number, and/or a certain timespan. (find this from Options > Preferences > Seeding Priority )I personally think this is great feature, for balancing the need of administration (stopping seeding manually) and the natural 'law' of bittorrent (seed at least 1x).

the bug is that this isn't actually working. I set my ratio on 110 and seeding time on <= 36 hours and I have some torrents that is still seeding while the ratio is more that 1.1.

what I mean with my settings is that my torrents will be stopped when the upload ratio is reaching 1.100 or the seeding time is 36 hours. I might be mistaken on this, so please give me some response on this :)

I think, you set not all options. If you set options for conditions ("Seed While" section), you also must set what uTorrent must do when this condition is reached. In section "When Torrent has reached the seeding goal" you must also set check box near "Limit the upload rate to [use 0 to stop torrent]:" and in "kB/s" edit box you must type 0 to stop seeding or type any amout of kB/s you want just to limit seeding speed.

Thanks Firon, where to find "settings.dat" file, thanks?

Did a search on computer, and none found in system partition, am using WinXP(Pro), and uTorrent in launched from data partition, different from system partition, but have noticed that when changning uTorrent version, settings/options are kept.
