      @Pawpcorn:

      uTorrent will automatically FIND the file you put in your normal porn download folder, run a CHECK on it (it should check to 100% if it's a match) then start seeding it

      Is this seeding method only applicable for uTorrent or can we use other BitTorrent clients too like qBittorrent, etc?

        I am currently seeding 35 files but only 2 of them are displayed in my profile statistics.

        I use qBitTorrent. I downloaded the torrent files again and made them point to the files I previously downloaded.

        In some cases the local files are renamed so I remapped each of the torrent files to the actual local file names through qBitTorrent. qBitTorrent then checked the torrents successfully and marked the torrent as seeding.

        Does anyone know why only 2 of the 35 seedings are visible in the stats?

          As of this reply, you are not seeding any of your completed downloads.

            Sorry, I'm new here. How will I know if my reseed request has been fulfilled?

              The file I'm attempting to re-seed is somehow .01 GiB off from the one I seeded from, so I'm stuck at 99.9%. Will the requester still see that this is available? (It is fully functioning - I'm not sure what the issue is.)

                If you downloaded a single file before and has exact match copy of what you are trying to seed, it will remain 100% completion…
                But if the file has any other attachment [like screen caps or pictures] that has been deleted or remove, then it will stays incomplete
                and it will not become visible to others…
                Unless you will create a new torrent and seed the file that you own...

                  This has happened to me multiple times and I can't seem to figure out the issue.

                  I received a reseed request for a file that I uploaded.  When I follow the reseed steps and it should go into "checking" it go into "connecting to peers".  It is the exact file that I uploaded the first time so I don't understand why it isn't checking and reseeding.

                  Any clues?

                    If it is the exact path > file folder name [match copy],
                    It should seed as long as you point in the right path folder location…
                    and if not it will established a new peer...

                    Stop the torrent, remove and delete the torrent [not the file folder]…
                    Once force-recheck is done it will show 100% completed...

                      That is the thing, it is not establishing the new peer.  The only thing I can even try to figure is that these were created prior to the new search feature.  I don't know if that would change anything or not but prior to the change, i never had a problem reseeding my torrents, now I can't get any of then too.

                          @vinoario1 said in RESEEDING!!! A SHORT / CONCISE TUTORIAL about HOW to RESEED!!:

                          Does it make sense to reseed long dead torrents that no one is leeching?

                          It depends: is the content good? Lots of lazy, crap uploads out there.

                          If I reseed a long dead torrent that hasn't any leechers, how do I let people now that I'm reseeding it?

                          Spend some bonus points to make it freeleech for 24 hours. It will get at least some customers, guaranteed.

                          Where do I find a list with reseed requested torrents?

                          Unknown, so I would refer to the first point above: if you think the content is good, then you will find it worthwhile to keep it alive. Your effort, so, your choice / your judgment.

                              One potential tip for anyone having trouble:

                              If you happen to be in the fairly rare situation where you're trying to reseed a file from a Windows/Linux machine that was originally downloaded to a Mac and the force recheck doesn't work, the file will need to be reuploaded from a Mac to be reseeded.

                              Some Mac files still use resource forks... I think MP4s especially. I just had a reseed that was stuck part way through even though the whole file was there after uploading from a Windows machine.

                              I paused the torrent, deleted the file on my (Linux) seedbox, and reuploaded to the seedbox from a Mac, rechecked again and the recheck completed at 100% and the file is now being reseeded.

                              Hope this helps someone.

                                @pawpcorn I tried the steps but I get the following message: Torrent 'NAME' is already in the transfer list. Trackers haven't been merged because it is a private torrent.

                                On the torrent presentation it shows it is no longer visible (dead)

                                  @kukuwi so the torrent being dead means... what?

                                  {nobody is seeding it, at the current time}

                                    Hi. Im happy to help out a member by re-seeding a file but Ive changed the name of it - simplified the original name. Will this still re-seed for the member? As it stands, its not doing anything. Ive put the file back into my usual folder but with the name changed slightly. Thanks.

                                      @Pawpcorn Hi, I was asked to reseed some torrents. Before starting torrent check, tracker thinks I want to download files again and block this action due to my low rating. So I can't start reseeding. What should I do? Thanks.

                                        Thus this reseeding only works on utorrent? I am using BitTorrent and downloaded the file again but it is not seeding. Also i got a request for re seed that is why I am reseeding this torrent again.

                                          @lycheejuice if you have to download again, then you don't have the original files in the default download directory.

                                            @jayjay033 reseeding works with any torrent client, but since we can't support the scrape function, you may need to FORCE SEED/START the torrent, in order for it to actually seed (right-click on the torrent and select that option).
                                            uTorrent doesn't have that problem.
