None of my torrents are downloading vuze

Max simultaneous downloads is the maximum number of torrents downloading at any moment. Max active torrents is the maximum number of torrents you download or seed at the same time. The following example picture shows, how Vuze has calculated a Seeding Rank for all completed torrents:. In the previous picture, the Max active torrents setting has been set to 5 and Max simultaneous downloads to 2.

Thus 2 First priority seeding torrents, 2 downloading torrents and finally 1 normal seeding torrent are started. Jump to: navigation , search. Categories : Documentation Troubleshooting.

The first thing to check is that the download is actually running and not waiting in the queue to start. Read about Vuze's queueing system. OK, so it really is downloading, next up to check is that the download has sufficient availability for you to download.

Take a look at the overview of ' availability ' - an availability of 0. Poor availability isn't necessarily terminal, there may be people out there with the files in the swarm who you will eventually connect to - be patient especially at the start of a download. Look to see if there are any error status messages against trackers. Here's also some information on what is a good torrent and a bad torrent. Check the seeds and peers in the swarm. OK, there appear to be lots of seeds, why am I not connected to any of them?

A good way to get a feel for the swarm is to go to the peers view - this shows you details of all the peers you are connected to in the swarm and you can use it to see if other peers are successfully downloading while you are not. If you see lots of peers with an availability that is the same as your availability then it means that the swarm is somewhat choked, perhaps due to a superseed.

If everyone is stuck at the same availability and not downloading, and there appear to be a lot of seeds that are not sending anyone any data, then the download is likely bad. Another indication of a poisoned torrent can be when you see a number of peers with similar IP addresses - that is they share a common prefix.
