qBittorrent question: seeds/leechers

CoderMan · 11-07-2009, 11:48 PM

Hi, quick question for someone who uses qBittorrent. Next to the list of torrents to be downloaded, in the Seeds/Leechers column, each torrent has a number set like one of these:

0(0)/0(2)

I know what seeds and leechers are, but I'm confused about one thing: What do the numbers in the parentheses represent? Even when there is no actual downloading/uploading going on, there will often still be non-zero numbers in the parentheses, like so:

0(2)/0(4)

Hi,

I believe that the number between parentheses are the number of seeders/leechers offering connection to/with that particular torrent whilst the numbers outside of the parentheses are the number of seeders/leechers you are connected to.

Kind regards,

Eric

Unless it breaks the conventions I've observed in Azureus (Vuze) & KTorrent, you are correct -- the pattern is:
connected (available)

This is not right.

There have been multiple times the number outside were larger than the numbers inside for me.

Right now, I'm torrenting something with Seeds: 3 (2) and Peers: 0 (1)
