coyotewrw Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Hi,I've restarted the download of a group of AVI files using a re-downloaded .torrent file, because the original was accidently deleted when I moved my utorrent folders to another drive.However, rather than picking up where it left off (finishing the ".avi" files), utorrent has created a bunch of corresponding ".bc!" files, i.e.:file1.avifile1.avi.bc!file2.avifile2.avi.bc!file3.avifile3.avi.bc!Can anyone explain this behavior? The original avi files were about 90% complete, but utorrent seems to be starting over from the beginning, current;y saying the download is only 8% complete Thanks!

Sanchez Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 .bc! Is BitComet. utorrent appends .ut! which is optional and off by default. You should open up bitcomet again and in options deselect "add .bt! to unfinished files" then start downloading with utorrent again. You might want to delete the smaller files utorrent downloaded again first so that theres no name conflict. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splintax Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 yeah, you must have somehow opened BitComet.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coyotewrw Posted January 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Thanks for the responses, but what's friggin' weird is that I've NEVER installed BitComet. Could this be related to the tracker or something? (noob alert) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 BitLord? BitSpirit may do the same thing too.It's also equally possible that the guy who made the torrent is an idiot. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Whoa... how the hell did you get .bc! without installing BitComet? Or do you have BitLord? BitLord is a "fork" of BitComet (BitComet's source code was sold to the BitLord people somewhere in BitComet 0.5x, but that's it).Edit:- Ahhhhh 1 second XD- I agree, it could just be the guy making the torrent being an idiot =P- Fine, edited =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Ultima: BitLord is not .59, I think it's much older. Like .55 or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CK Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 I get these two and I've never had BitComet installed, maybe it comes with some of the torrents you're downloading? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coyotewrw Posted January 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 I just looked at the comments for the torrent I'm downloading, lots of people bitching that it wont go past 70-80%, so I'm guessing it's screwed. Especially since uTorrent is the only client that's ever been installed on this computer (besides the official bittorrent client, of course).Thanks for clearing this up, folks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
