It’s not enough merely to have peers. You need to cultivate a wholistic … uh, am I creating ridiculous translation difficulties? You need to become aware of all that is occurring in a bittorrent download.
The peers must have something to send to you. If you look at the PEERS tab, and you see many peers, but they’re almost all at the same percentage of completion, then you should suspect problems. IF that percentage of completion is zero, for everybody, then you can reasonably suspect that there are no seeders and that this torrent won’t go anywhere. You can stop it and try again in a while, in hopes that a seeder will show up, but it is very common that they do not – that this torrent will never advance or complete, and should just be deleted.
If the peers almost all have the same percentage, but it is slowly increasing, and all of the peers are advancing in lock-step, then this torrent is being initial-seeded, or as it is mistakenly named, “super-seeding”. That’s a mode that many people mistakenly use in the erroneous belief that it is faster. There’s nothing much you can do about that except ride with it, and avoid using initial-seeding yourself. BitComet does not support this mode. It’s only for those who pay for their internet connection by the amount that they upload, whom it will theoretically save some money at the cost of slowing down the upload. Nobody else should use super-seeding.
If all the peers have the same percentage but are not slowly increasing, then the seed has probably dropped. He may return, so you may want to stop the torrent but not remove it, and try again later. But if it’s still stuck at the same percentage, and everybody still has the same percentage as you, then odds are that this torrent will never advance and you should probably just delete all of it.
All of these things happen with unreasonably often.
If the peers column in the task general display shows a lot of seeds, and especially if the torrent is extremely new yet has hundreds of seeds, then this is almost certainly a fake torrent intended to frustrate and annoy downloaders, and which will never complete.
In a situation where things used to work but don’t now, you need to keep asking yourself the question, “what changed?”. You’ve focussed on the change of BC versions, but it seems unlikely that a completely non-working version would be released. They don’t properly test 'em, but they do at least plug them in before they throw them over the wall. So keep looking for other changes. In a situation where you don’t control the network, don’t discount administrative action. Many admins dislike bittorrent traffic and take steps to limit or bar it.
Nu e de ajuns doar sa ai parteneri de descarcare, trebuie sa privesti problema dintr-un punct de vedere mai general … iti creez dificultati ridicole de traducere? Trebuie sa devii constient de tot ce se petrece intr-o descarcare bittorrent.
Partenerii trebuie sa aiba ceva de dat. Daca te uiti la tabul PEERS si vezi o gramada de parteneri dar toti au cam acelasi procent de completare, atunci ar trebui sa suspectezi o problema. DACA acel procent de completare e zero, pentru toata lumea, atunci poti suspecta in la modul rezonabil ca nu sunt donatori, iar torrentul nu va progresa deloc. Poti sa opresti sarcina pentru a incerca mai tarziu cu speranta ca va aparea un donator, dar in general acestia nu apar iar sarcina nu va mai progresa nicidecum sa se finalizeze, si ar trebui stearsa.
Daca toti partenerii au cam acelasi procent, avansand treptat, atunci acel torrent este donat prin metoda “initial-seeding” sau asa cum mai este denumita in mod gresit “Super-Seeding”. Din aceasta cauza multi cred ca vor obtine viteze mai mari. Nu poti face nimic in legatura cu asta decat sa ai rabdare si sa nu folosesti niciodata metaoda asta. BitComet nu suporta acest mod. Este facut pentru cei care platesc in functie de trafic, cu avantajul ca vor plati mai putin la costul unor viteze mai mici de upload. Nimeni altcineva nu ar trebui sa foloseasca acest mod.
Daca toti partenerii au cam acelasi procent si nu mai avanseaza treptat atunci donatorul a plecat. Este posibil ca acesta sa se intoarca asa ca ai putea opri sarcina fara sa o stergi si sa incerci mai tarziu. Dar daca e tot blocat la acelasi procent iar ceilalti au acelasi procent ca tine atunci este foarte probabil ca sarcina nu se va finaliza niciodata iar tu ar trebui sa stergi totul.
Toate acestea se intampla incredibil de des.
Daca coloana de parteneri din lista de sarcini indica prezenta a multor donatori iar in special daca torentul este extrem de nou si totusi are sute de donatori atunci este foarte probabil ca torrentul este fals, fiind creat pentru a frustra si enerva descarcatorii si nu se va finaliza.
In situatia in care lucrurile au mers bine dar acum nu mai e asa, ar trebui sa-ti pui intrebarea “Ce s-a schimbat?”. Te-ai concentrat pe schimbarea versiunii de bitcomet, dar e putin probabil ca o versiune total nefuctionala sa fie data publicului. Nu le testeaza intens dar totusi le pornesc pentru a le verifica mai intai.
Prin urmare, continua sa cauti schimbarea in alta parte. In situatia in care tu nu ai control asupra retelei, nu elimina vina administratorului. Multi administratori nu sunt incantati de traficul bittorrent si incearca pe cat posibil sa-l limiteze sau sa-l blocheze.
Did you mean “holistic” ? lol
, apoi spune-mi mai clar ce se intampla cu BitComet, se inchide programul brusc (cu o eroare? ce eroare? sau daca nu apare nimic) sau nu se mai conecteaza in sensul ca nu porneste descarcarea?
