killerloader Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 I'm downloading a torrent where i've selected a single file out of ~320 files, this file is 80mb. Every other files is set to skip, and so far it has downloaded ~2GB of the skipped files (the starts and the ends of about 124 files) The one file i want to download is set to high priority, and has downloaded about 25% The piece size is 16mb, and i'm using bitorrent 7.9.7 build 42331. I really don't want to wait another hour or so for bittorrent to download my 80mb file, while taking up gigabytes of HDD space. I understand that pieces can overlap files. However, considering i've downloaded 128 pieces, and the file i want is only 7 pieces big, i can't see that being the problem. I've also disabled "prioritizing start and end piece" in the advanced settings. I don't think I've had this problem in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
