Shareaza - Almost complete download

[tradermarco]

I have had large files (movies) that are 99.6 % complete and the last bit takes forever to finish. Is there are way to save the current file (mpg, avi) without it being 100% ?

I am also confused as to the purpose and effectiveness of "Forget current verification status and reverify" and "Assume file is 100% complete and reverify" in the Advanced edit section.

[.:sp00ky:.]

im not too sure how shareeaza temps work but if you look in the main shareaza dir their will be a temp save folder if it contains a file thats around the size of the movie just take it out and change its name to what ever format it was e.g "movie.avi"

This is a weird little quirk in Shareaza, and that's because for some reason it keeps downloading the same parts even when it finishes them, I'm pretty sure this is related.

In advanced, I would do Forget all sources, and then Forget verification status and reverify. This will basically discard anything shareaza knows about who you are downloading it from, and the second part prett ymuch tells it to recognize what the hell the file is missing. After that, right click the file and choose "Find more sources". That does the trick 99% of the time =P

I tried your suggestions and they all worked. The temp directory I found- In the Local settings, Shareaza, Incomplete folder - had the files and I was able to load them. I also got a few to complete once I chose the reverify options.
