Zarxrax Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 Hi, I just switched to utorrent and I like it very much! However, I can't seem to find a very important feature that I used from Azureus.I use bittorrent to distribute my content. To save bandwidth, I don't want to seed my files when other people are seeding them. I only want to seed a file if it has 0 or 1 people seeding it. I was wondering if a setting could be implemented which allows you to only seed a file if it has fewer than X seeds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdArmor Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 That is not really how the BT community works if anything you should always seed, but there's a .001% chance that this will be implemented, so keep your hopes up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ares Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 Why not Super-seed instead? Thus making more peers, and less work for your server to do.-Ares Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zarxrax Posted November 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 How in the world does this seem like a leecher feature? I am talking about seeding my own content! If you are downloading a file it would of course not stop seeding no matter what the number of seeders... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 Erm, sorry for the misunderstanding. I should learn to read more closely next time (I deleted my previous posts in this thread, sorry about that =P). In any case, I believe this has been requested several times before. I'm not sure of the exact details, but according to chaosblade, ludde and vurlix are working heavily on the seeding queue priority system, so you might see something like what you're requesting in the future =]Edit: Hm... just looked through the Advanced Options section of the Preferences, and I noticed a field called queue.prio_no_seeds... Can this possibly be the option that you're looking for? I'm not sure how exactly this setting affects µTorrent's behavior, but it's set to true by default.
