jurchiks Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 Every time I download a fresh torrent from any tracker, the status says "scrape not supported".When I Force Start it, it goes allright.Edit: when torrent is downloaded, and I set it back to Start instead of Force Start, no problems.Appeared only 2 days ago, when I updated to v2.0 (build 18296).Any additional info needed?

DreadWingKnight Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 Why do you think anything is misbehaving here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jurchiks Posted February 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 because never before it said "scrape not supported"it doesn't download the torrents because of that, it's not normal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 Scrape not supported means that particular tracker doesn't support scrape.The torrent isn't misbehaving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jurchiks Posted February 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 What is that scrape then and why doesn't it download it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 It doesn't download the torrent right away because your queue settings are set to run fewer torrents than that at once (and no increasing that isn't a good idea).http://wiki.theory.org/BitTorrentSpecification#Tracker_.27scrape.27_Convention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreadWingKnight Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 Except if you're splitting your connection's upload close to 400 different ways when you have the maximum number of torrents active.Set your upload slots per torrent lower.

jurchiks Posted February 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 well, setting upload slots per torrent to 15 helpedguess i'll stick to that, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jurchiks Posted March 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 Just updated to the new version, now it's the same problem for half of my torrents even though settings have not changed. WTH are you doing with the program? I've never had these problems before!Edit: it's slowly resetting the status to working now, like 1 torrent per minute, but still...

jurchiks Posted March 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 Currently i've set upload limit to 2048 (1120 when downloading) and dl limit to 4096, just because my pc sometimes lags when those speeds and above are reached. But really, the only reason I don't upload with this speed constantly is because not always someone is downloading something and most of my country has much lower speed than me.Edit: in past, i've reached upload of 8MB/s (yes, that's megabytes) and download of 12.8 (three years ago, when I subscribed to this provider, I had download of 84+mbps according to speedtest.net). Currently it seems i've been capped to double the speed I had subscribed for, 20mbps (yes, providers often don't mention their upload speeds, and this one also didn't cap it for the first year or so).

jurchiks Posted March 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 BUMPthis ("scrape not supported" on all torrents) is happening on every restart. NOT COOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 The trackers you're using don't support scraping. It has nothing to do with your ability or inability to start torrents. You have too many torrents running, so it takes a while to get them all started. Just be patient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Does it even happen on the test torrents mentioned in the 1st link in my signature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jurchiks Posted March 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 It doesn't matter what torrent, it happens on all of them. (i'd say it's not too many, only 89, of which 2/3 are never active)Well, doesn't work for OOo torrent, so yeah, I guess it's trackers' fault...It's not like it matters much, it's just annoying AND it had never occured before the last 2 updates, so I thought it's the program, and I think my worry wasn't baseless.
