      Can't get a good answer from the other post about uploading your torrents via the website. I used to use the Quick Torrent maker before the change to the website. So I'm trying to upload this 2.5gb torrent through utorrent. Currently its been stuck at "connecting to peers 0.0%"

      I uploaded a different torrent and it worked perfectly fine when I uploaded the torrent through GT and downloaded the torrent myself and is visible to others but not this other one I'm trying to upload. I followed the system message about how to seed the torrent but its not working still. unless I'm doing it wrong.

      Does anyone know how to fix the issue? I tried using that GUU application but I'm unable to login and I did change the domain to the ".ru" but the categories were just weird text.

        @Seakyusee1 Most important, have you downloaded the torrent that the site created when you uploaded it, or are you trying to seed using the torrent you created? If the latter, it won't work.

        What client (app) are you using? qBittorrent? uTorrent? Something else? This may help in diagnosing the problem, if it's not the one above. (Hint: It usually IS the one above.)

        Can you post the link to the torrent you've created?

        Other opinions are also available. They're not right, obviously, but they are available.

          @Seakyusee1 This is usually the case when your torrent client is trying to download the torrent, rather than seed it. To fix this, remove the torrent from your uTorrent, then do the following:

          1. Move the video file or the folder containing the multiple files into the folder that your uTorrent downloads into by default.

          2. Download the .torrent file from the site to use

          3. Open the .torrent file from the site with your uTorrent

          As long as all the file(s) are in the correct place (ie the default download folder, or their collective folder within that folder), uTorrent should check the contents, then begin to seed it for you.

          When it tries to download the contents, it is because it cannot find them in the default download folder, so it assumes you are trying to download, rather than seed.
