badzman Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 Hi,I wish to see to feature in the future release on the seeding. Normal seeding will not work if there r alot of seeders thus have to change to super-seeding in order to upload. Maybe utorrent can be smart enough to automatically sets the seeding and super-seeding so that users can lie back even after the file is downloaded.

DreadWingKnight Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 Automatic switching between super-seeding and normal seeding is even less recommended than super-seeding on a healthy swarm.Pick a mode and stay with it. Don't swap between them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 You cannot super-seed when there's other seeders in the swarm, it doesn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sektor Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 Even if he got it backwards, i think he has a point. If a torrent is super-seeding it should switch to normal seeding if there is another seeder in the swarm and switch back if the other seeder leaves.

Firon Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 Well, you never know if the other seeder is actually working right. (capped to 1KB/s, paused the torrent, ISP blocks seeding, etc) :/Might not be a bad idea though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badzman Posted January 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 cos i got a funny scene here, i'm trying to seed a file with 8 leechers and 22 seeders but when i used seeding mode here, i can't connect to any peers but when uses super-seeding peers start to appear.That is why i feeling funny and make this suggestion.

Firon Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 Turn on peer.lazy_bitfield badzman, your ISP blocks seeding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 Super-Seed should disable itself after 1 or more seeds appear in the torrent.It should be turned to regular seed mode.It doesn't need to change back if those seeds disappear because changing from seed to super-seed mode means dropping ALL connections and reconnecting. This isn't good because upload speed=0 KB/sec while this occurs.Going from super-seed to regular seed should allow uploads to continue. If it doesn't, consider this a features request.
