1c3d0g Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 That's a problem with your specific torrent, not µTorrent. We can't do anything about that here. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUYNEWBIE Posted February 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 I understand that it is no fault whatsoever of UT. I was just hoping that there was a forum or the like to report or to check the validity of torrents.BTW, Great Proggie guys TY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 You'll have to go to wherever you downloaded it from, this isn't the place for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r00ted Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 Have you tried re-hashing the torrent/downloaded files? lol. I've seen some failed .sfv checks (or maybe I was just reading the window wrong..), but the files within; were normal and played fine (without errors).

Vectorferret Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 RE-hashing is a µTorrent thing to check if the files were corrupted during download. Right click on the torrent and select "Force Re-Check", if they come out okay then the files weren't corrupted during download and were bad to begin with. (A BitTorrent client only re-downloads the damaged parts, so it won't mean starting again.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
