They are not dled as bittorrents.
When finished they are either Divx movies in folders or SVCDs.
SVCDs need a special codec to play.
Use VideoLan.org
It's free.
It plays everything also.

Does it play BIK or SMK files? :P (i'm just being picky here hehe)

Does that file have a lot of sources?

One question to ask all of you..
Why is that that using shareaza can give a much better dl speed than bittorrent which the most can only give 2-3kb/s? And when i see that most pple are using bittorrent to dl... which will take them days to do that...
Second question, is that i have been trying to dl using bittorrent and all i get are errors tracking,etc and even if there is no error, it's keep stating connecting to peers and giving me a 0kb/s whereas using shareaza is connecting quicker than bittorrent..
Personal view is that shareaza is a much better software than bittorrent in term of performance..

Its a fairly common issue even amoungst people who know what they are doing .. performance with BT varies between users and sometimes greratly at that. :-)

@ erik -> BT starts connecting from 6881 and tries up to 6889 when available.

Are those ports TCP or UDP because i'm gonna set up port fowarding in my router for porte 6881 through 6889 so i can achieve faster speeds. It works with other programs like overnet and eDonkey so hopefully it will work with Bit Torrent also. And I have the Experimental Bit Torrent so are the ports different?
Thanx!

and no, the ports are the same, because virtually all clients are based on the same (python) core.

Download the Bit Torrent Search. It's like a metasearch for torrents. I've actually had better luck downloading with this program. For some reason my downloads always fail if I try to download through a website. I think you can find a link to it on http://www.Zeropaid.com.

Ok, I have some questions that might seem really stupid to you guys. But I need them answering really badly.
1) How do you actually make a file available to upload? I have created some torrents using BitSpirit but I don't know what to do with them.
2) How do I start a download from SuprNova? First off, I disable my Internet Security, the torrent saves and then opens up in BitSpirit like this:
I click ok, and then this screen appears, but nothing starts downloading:
Any help?

Well I dont know if any of you have been warned but watch out for Vivendi/Universal Studios and Symnatec Corp on Bit Torrent! Some copyright infringment letters have been sent! Maybe best not to use the Bit Torrent sites that are the easiest to find for a while!

Unfortunately you cant do much about your problem unless u could find an automated program that would open the torrent file as soon as there is a fail! Dunno of any as of yet though!

I have this same problem sometimes, mostly with files that have a high number of seeds. The problem seems to be that BT is trying to download at a higher speed than my connection can handle.
The only thing I've found that helps is to not download more than a couple files at a time, unless you are going to be sitting there to reset your modem every few minutes. There may be a way to limit your download speed, but I haven't found it yet.
I never actually thought I would have a problem with a client downloading too fast.
