max shares problem

Thu Mar 19, 2009 8:03 pm
After upgrading from suse 10.2 to 11.1 I cannot set max share higher than 100.00.
The arrow buttons will move 100.00 lower but not higher.
If I edit the field manually when I press OK the field reverts to 100.00.

How do I fix and not have to import torrents and data again.

Thanks
George

1. Yes (as under "Settings>Configure KTorrent>Downloads>Max share ratio:")

2. KTorrent 2.2.8 (Using KDE 3.5.10 "release 21.9 openSUSE")


One file has now reached a ratio of 1.42, although the "Max share ratio:" is still showing "100.00".

I checked the "Status" tab of the 1.42 file.
Under "Sharing", "Ratio limit:" was checked and the limit was set at "100.00". I could not adjust the limit up with the arrow button.

I unchecked "Ratio limit:" and the ratio box was grayed out but showed "0.00".

I then rechecked "Ratio limit:". The ratio box then showed "1.00" and the up arrow increased the ratio in 1/10 increments.

Ater that experience I revisited "Settings>Configure KTorrent>Downloads>Max share ratio:"
I manually edited the ratio box to show "1.5". (At first I would enter "150.00" or "150")After clicking "Apply" the box showed "1.50" and the up and down buttons changed the display in 1/100 increments.
Those settings are persistent upon opening and closing KTorrent preferences, and exiting and restarting KTorrent.

I am now waiting to see if the new ratio settings are followed.

The max share ratio setting is a default setting which is only applied on newly loaded torrents. The max share ratio settings of existing torrents is not changed.
