UTorrent question: Why are my videos skipping to the beginning?
This happened to me a long time ago, also with some vids and I think a few songs. First, try skipping past 1:30, say, 5:00 or something. The reason for this is because there are some seeds or peers that are anti-torrent sites/people. They purposefully provide corrupt files so that your torrented stuff doesn't work. All torrents are downloaded in chunks, so it's possible your videos have only a certain chunk corrupted, around the 1:30 mark. If you can't skip to ANYTHING past 1:30, check what video player you're using. I use VLC and have no problems. I'm not saying that you have to I'm just providing something that I know works. Some of the higher end video players are very picky on what they can and can't process. I believe VLC is just a player, nothing really fancy. Hell, the thing itself is just a gray border and some ons. If that still doesn't work, it's your videos themselves that got corrupted. Redownload them while using a peer blocker. Peerblock(that's the only one I know if) limits what ISPs your computer contacts, and blocks out the ones it has on a list of proven anti-torrent sites/people. To find peerblock just google it, it should be the first one. Well just edit the question if you have any other questions (that was one of my longest answers =P)
