Satlled Torrent does not let qBittorrent move onto next in quque

[Exeter67]

Hi,

I have a queue length of 3 and they download all together just fine except for when one torrent becomes stalled.

The other 2 torrents keep working fine but the stalled torrent won't let qBittorrent move onto the next queued item to download.

I have let it sit for an hour and still the other 2 items keep downloading or moving onto the next queued torrent but the stalled torrent stays stalled and now I am only downloading 2 torrent at a time.

I am using 5.0.3

Thanks,

Mike

There is an option for "Slow torrents" just below where you set up the queue limits in settings.
Just put in like 500kbps or whatever and then it will ignore the stalled one.

Thank you Peter for the quick response. I am not sure which parameter to adjust. I can't work out how to attach a JPG for you to see.

Parameters are :-

seeding limits
when ratio reaches ...
when total seeding tome reaches ...
when inactive seeding time reaches ...

I can't find the words "Slow torrents" anywhere.

Its right there?
Maybe you have a different program? Old version?

Thank you.

Thank you.

No worries. Also set it like .. experiment with it. If its too aggressive, too permissive, just mess with the values until you find the right values for you. Good luck!

Hi ,

I have tried giving the parameters all different values from 0 to 1000 ... still everything remains stalled.

Would you pls provide an example ?

That's exactly how it should work.
- If something cannot download/gets stuck, then it tries to download the rest.
- It doesn't help with download speed or connections.

You probably have bad torrents, like torrents without enough seed, etc.
I'd recommend joining some private trackers.

I probably did not make myself clear ... the torrents that are not stalled remain as queued. They don't change status to downloading or stalled. If I have 6 torrents and 2 are stalled then the remaining 4 torrents are stalled and never reach downloading status.

[Exeter67]

Still happening. Sits on stalled for ever without moving onto the next queued item.

Gone back to uTorrent. Always reliable

Yeah, it happens, can't work for all the users out there.
I had the same luck with uTorrent, it just doesn't work like it did before. But there is also Tixati, Vuze, Transmission and like a million others.
