LGau Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 HI peopleNew to file sharing and am seeking guidance of best options for seeding.I may have misunderstood the information available in the help guides/setup menu so please correct anything I may have gotten wrong.Lets say for arguments sake that I have 13 episodes of a TV series completely downloaded over the weekend.I have all 13 episodes available to upload - and people are uploading all 13 episodes.I have 20 kbps total upload speed - spread over 13 files - so everyone is uploading very slowly.By the end of the week I still have a lousy share ratio because I am not uploading as fast as I was able to download.Should I......Limit the number of seeds (eg 6 available) so they upload faster (this would leave 7 episodes queued) or,Leave all seeds available even if they are crawling at 0.2 kbpsIf I limit the number of seeds, how do I change to the queued seeds after X period of time?Hope my post isn't too confusing. I appreciate any feedback :-)LG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Limit the number of seeds and make sure that your preferences have a defined seeding goal.Once the seeding goal is met, torrents that haven't reached the seeding goal get higher priority and get started in their place.

LGau Posted August 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Thanks for the confirmation - I thought I had made the right choice but the fact that there were so many files queued had me worried Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
