palesash Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 Not sure if this is a rounding error or not, however I am currently downloading a torrent which seems to not have any peers connected at the moment. THe completion ratio shows as 99.3%, however the available ratio shows only 99.2%. Is this a bug ?Screenshot attached: http://www.mediafire.com/file/mtzannmnqnz/Untitled.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 No. The availability counts complete pieces only. The progress bar counts incomplete pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palesash Posted January 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 So if I understand you correctly, I have part downloaded a piece that is no longer available ? If so, then I would expect to see this part piece in the Pieces tab.The Pieces tab is unfortunately empty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 Besides incomplete pieces, IINM, when µTorrent calculates the availability, it bases it on the number of pieces are marked as "have" by other peers, and the piece count in the torrent. That means µTorrent may be assuming that the piece size is homogeneous throughout the torrent, but it may not be the case with the last piece (which can be of variable size).So I guess the point is that it's most likely not so much a rounding error as it is a case of µTorrent calculating both numbers from different sources (which can be off by slight amounts).
