What the &%¤ is hppening with the files?????

[DrAli]

Every now and then all downloaded files (that is files that are not 100% ready but have been downloaded to different rates) just gets to 0%.

This happens when I start the utorrent. I have not changed any setting, nor have I changed the directories och the files in it.

So when the torrents are at 0% it starts ti check, but every time it has checked the torrent to 100%, the file usually are at a moore less percentage than it was before.

For instance the movie x has been downloaded to 87%. You close the utorrent, open it again later but it is now at 0%, with the text label checking, so it starts to check from 0-100% (which takes quite som time), then when its ready, the movie x are at 27%. And so it continues.

What the &%/% is going on??????

Something on your system is preventing uT from writing the resume state.

Hmm, any idea what it could be, I have nod32 antiviurs program, and use xp firewall, anything that I should shut off?

[moogly]

Ahah, NOD32 is not the best friend of uT !

[Firon]

Are you running utorrent 1.8?

Also, try turning on bt.graceful_shutdown.

[DrAli]

Yes I use 1.8

Ok I turned bt_graceful to true, lets see if this works.

both windows firewall and nod antivirus will still be on to see if it works still

kind of hard to close the antivirus all the time

what is bt_graceful any way

bt.graceful_shutdown: If enabled, µTorrent will take as long as it needs to finish its shutdown sequence (writing in-progress pieces to disk, deleting files in deletion queue, and waiting for tracker replies to stop messages -- among other things). That means that even if it takes several minutes to shutdown gracefully, it will wait for that long, and the process will remain in memory until then. If disabled, µTorrent will limit how long it waits to to 13 seconds, and regardless of the state of the shutdown sequence, µTorrent will force itself to exit.
