Certain files don't download

Kind of rare, but for certain files I don't seem to connect to seeds, even though there are many seeds in the swarm, so the Seeds number will be like 0 (200) and the Peers number will be like 20 (200). So it seems like the content is there, unlike something with no seeds.

The status says "downloading" but done remains (days now) at 0.0%. Under the General tab, it shows no availability (big red bar).

So what's up with that? Is there some kind of queue I have to get thru like on emule?

All other files download no problem.

No, there isn't any queue. If availability is 0.0, chances are, the torrent is near dead. Tracker scrapes can return incorrect/stale data, so the 200 seeds that are there may not even really be there D:

Are any of the connected peers moving in terms of % progress and/or speed? Is your port forwarded properly? And FYI, Comcast's shapes traffic, so you may sometimes end up with connection issues. Of course, I'm no expert on the Comcast issue, so I'm not sure if that's what you're experiencing here.
