coton Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 I have the general jist of how the trackers connect peer to peer so without them once disconnected you wont reconnect or something along those lines. But will downloading without a working tracker affect the download? They're video files that i'm downloading so will it affect the video/audio/overall download quality of the files if i finish the download as a forced download without the trackers working or should i stop the download until the tracker timeout is resolved? Thanks in advance for advice.Picture is of the tracker list on the specific torrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 The trackers themselves don't give you the data. They have no influence on the reliability of the data, just (in the case of private torrents like the one you're demonstrating) the ability to cold start.

coton Posted September 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 Alright thanks for the info and quick response. I wasn't entirely sure if the trackers acted as just an initial connector or a middle-man connection holder of sorts, but you cleared it up.
