Anything else I could try maybe?

Thanks

Nothing you can do until it is seeded.

But it's seeded. Have you tried downloading it?

[Moe]

It isn't seeded. If it were, you and the rest of the swarm would be trading pieces.

Huh, but how would you explain the 5 seeders in parentheses?

[Moe]

It is a tactic used by some trackers to make it a little more difficult to determine the identity of the "original" uploader.  When the swarm is new, and the tracker says there are 5 seeds, is the one you are connected to the first, or just someone who completed before you did?

The fact that you are connected to 20 peers and haven't yet downloaded the torrent metadata tells you with certainty that none of the seeds actually exists.

Look at all his other uploads.  Note the few recent ones with larger peer counts.  I bet you won't be able to start any of those either.

Ahh now I understand.

I have just tried and you're right .. hmm .. thanks very much
