Is this possibly after running a recover_temp ?
This happens when the GUI "sees" bytes plopping up because the core realises which chunks are already present and increases the bytecounter for this file. S°
hmm. Is there a way for the GUI to tell if a file is actually downloading or if the core is discovering chunks on its own? If not, maybe there should be...? 'after running recover_temp' - how long after? Could it be days after that it 'discovers' that I already have chunks? How does this happen? Does it need to be actively finding sources for the file to get it to 'discover'? Does the core know if a file still has some discovering to do or if its discovered everything its going to discover? If it does know, maybe a) it should show up with a different status in the GUI b) if that file is 'paused' it should still do what it needs to do to 'discover' all its chunks (without actually downloading anything). I could have files sitting at 3%, and I've paused them in favour of files that are at 90%, when in reality these files could have 'undiscovered' chunks sitting on my HD... Also, none of this answers why a paused file had a list of sources and some of them had sources connected or downloading! Does anyone else get this? Cheers Neil
