Torrent stopped seeding because of one file!
#1
Hello,
I upload this torent two weeks ago:

https://thepiratebay.org/torrent/1655363...on_movies)

It stop seeding at 60.5GB, it tell me there's an error! so I did force re-check, the check up stopped at 6%!

The cause seems to came from the film cats don't dance, the check up stop at it.

I'm thinking of deleting the film, but the problem is that I can't copy the film before doing so! I got an error every time I try!

What is the error you get when you try to transfer the file?

If it is a cyclic redundancy error then you might try running CHKDSK to fix hard drive errors.

Schedule CHKDSK to run at boot up and enable fix errors/recover bad sectors option, or boot up with your install CD and run it from there.

Yes, it was cyclic redundancy error. I did chkdsk and now everything back to normal.

Thank you.

This is my torrent:
https://thepiratebay.org/torrent/1655363...on_movies)

If I delete one film of it, will the film re-download itself?

Yes IF someone else still in the swarm had previously downloaded the entire movie from you.

But from the looks of it--no seeds on a torrent over a month old--that is almost certainly not the case.

Torrents that size, made up of so many movies, almost always fail. They will only succeed if you personally continue to seed (upload) them forever, or if a never ending stream of other people choose to download every single movie in the entire torrent and then continue seeding (uploading) them after they have finished downloading and without moving/deleting/renaming any one of the files.

So your only support for that torrent will come from huge Disney/Pixar fans (who want to download every single movie you have) who don't already have copies of any of the movies you have. [Or who are happy to download extra copies of movies they already have.] i.e. very very few people indeed--hence the requirement for you to continue uploading forever or let the torrent die.

I thought so. Great.

I'm still seeding the torrent. though I don't know why in here (thepiratebay) it shows zero seeding!

Thank you.

If you have deleted a film within the torrent you cannot be seeding it. Seeding, by definition, is uploading done by a peer who possesses the complete torrent.

Many torrent clients misleadingly report (to you) that you are "seeding" when you are uploading a partially complete torrent. But trackers (and websites, and peers) will all see you as a leech not a seed unless you possess 100% of the files within the whole torrent.

[That said, even if you really are seeding, the statistics displayed on TPB are notoriously inaccurate.]
#8
But you also have some torrent sites that wrongly add seed numbers from all trackers they scrape and report these sums as "actual" numbers of seeds, so a seed seen by 5 trackers will be counted 5 times in the seed count. The longer your tracker list, the more seeds you (pretend to) have. Seeds galore!

So here's the deal.

If you delete a file in your upload, you can't seed it anymore. Simple as that.

If you have uploaded it a lot before that, so other people have copies of your torrent, and all the files, then you can download your own torrent from them to get the original back.

If you didn't distribute it enough so that others got all the files, then you can't do that, and you are screwed.

Since your torrent is ridiculously insanely stupidly large, I'm sure that didn't happen. So you will have to create a new torrent.

Okay, a few weeks ago I made this thread:
https://pirates-forum.org/Thread-Torrent...f-one-file
That problem got solved.(by chkdsk drrive and force re-check) but at that time my torrent status turned from seeding to downloading! from 100% to 99.9%! I thought this will be temporary! but it still at this!
the cause came from one file, that file size is 687MB but it stuck at 683MB in the torrent and it won't complete!

Is there a solution for this?
