Was this torrent fully downloaded?

Post by niccapo »

I was wondering if this torrent was fully downloaded because part of it was failed but Transmission said that the download was complete.

Looks great to me. The fails could've been bad pieces, but the bittorrent protocol has checks for this and will re-request the pieces.

On a sidenote that UI design looks beautiful.

Failed DL states how much data was downloaded that did not pass its checksum test. This information is discarded and new one is downloaded. Your download is finished if it reaches 100% even if some has failed. demons33derxx was right.
