thinker Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 I know this is probably related to torrent the protocol and not this app, but I wonder what you think.Torrents could benefit by scattering the pieces that are shared. However, it's infuriating how they can't at least cut some slack for the very first minutes of a video and give it some weight there while ignoring the last few minutes:One could notice the availability was same. But that is strengthening the point: A slow first provider is giving virtually equal weight to the last minutes of the video while they are obviously not needed as fast. It's a single video.

DreadWingKnight Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 That's an unseeded torrent. No amount of preferencing like that is going to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thinker Posted February 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 It's perfectly seeded by hundrends of seeds.It's just that the peers are thousands and most users don't get a seed and wait for others that are connected to the seeds. The principle remains.Anyway, I think there is a small excuse for the initial problem: Some people may abandon a video if they watch a little and others may never get the last minutes.

DreadWingKnight Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 The availability tells me that it's not "perfectly seeded" and as such it's not perfectly seeded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
