Okay, after trying other torrent downloads, it seems my client stalls out on all of them, this is a sad moment

@hypir are you collecting sc's videos? I have all of them on my onedrive. in case you need them, send me a message!

@eobox91103 Thank you for your reply and comments and thanks to @john32123666 as well. I had a hunch that the chances will be close to none but thought would get second opinion.

@drekkin Thank you I'll do that.

If the file is not 100 % completed from download or corrupted due to missing codec filter or not valid ...
right click on properties to open with or change by default if it's a valid format ...

Thanks, I only see Enable for outgoing but I enabled it just in case. I'll see if it makes a difference.

I was trying to seed but the problems continued. I fixed it eventually. I always continue seeding after I finish.

@scatslut The display you get depends on the client you're using. I use uTorrent, and let's say I get a display like this:
Capture.JPG
This shows green because the torrent on that line is still active; a dead torrent would show red. But the things to look at are the Seeds and Peers columns:

This one shows 13 seeders present, although I'm not connected to any of them because I've finished downloading what I want. If you still want to download material from a torrent, this number will need to be something other than zero. If it shows zero, the tracker won't hook you up with a seeder, and you won't be getting any data from them.

Similarly, it shows 10 peers (also called leechers) present, and I'm connected to three of them. This means that 10 users have not yet fully downloaded this torrent, and three of them are connected to me, able to get data from my files. If the torrent is deleted by the system, I might still be connected to some of them and be able to send them data, but I don't think the system gives me upload credit for that. You can also receive data from other leechers--if they have data that you don't have.

If the client shows that you're not connected to any seeders or leechers (0 in both columns), then you won't get any new data. Depending on the torrent you might have some complete files, and maybe some semi-useful partial files...but that's it.

I hope this helps.

@john32123666 Thank you, I'm sure I will have to!

@top58786 This actually sounds like a port forwarding issue. See, in order to get proper connectivity, and in particular, proper upload traffic, you need to make sure that the port that your torrent client uses is forwarded through your home network or VPN to your computer, both in TCP and UDP. This is a necessary step for being able to get proper upload traffic with our system.

Merci je regarde

Check your client settings and see if it is set to automatically add newly downloaded torrent files. I get this sometimes if I accidentally download the .torrent file twice.

What happens is you get 2 copies of the .torrent file in you downloads folder in Windows. When I delete a download from my client it's set to also delete the .torrent file. What can happen is that if there's a duplicate in the watched download folder it will immediately pick that up and start downloading it.

@Boy61 said in How can I download a video on a Macbook ?:

I tried to download a video, unfortunately it didn't work. Why is that? Only an empty file was downloaded.

In torrenting:
you need a client, seeder and peers to complete the process before you can view the file where default download folder is ...

In web-server:
wait for complete download, before you can access the file ...
[make sure to know where your default download location] ...

@john32123666 Thanks for the information and suggestions, I'll give it a try

@hols said in Add torrent to Transmission:

I'm not able to add some torrents to Transmission.

I download the torrent file and when I doubleclick on it, nothing happens.

Here are two examples:

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

You may need to open Transmission and either use the button in the toolbar, or use the menus to be able to open the torrent file from within Transmission itself.
