Thread: Seeding file to multiple private torrent sites

Hey guys I was wondering if there is a way to seed a file to multiple private sites using VUZE. For example I have a huge ratio on one torrent site and see the exact television show for download as I do one of my other private sites that I do not have a large ratio on. Is there a way to download the file then become a seeder for the file on the small ratio site thus building my ratio very fast but without downloading the large file from my small ratio site? Gosh I hope I explained that question correctly! Thanks for the help!!

yes, download the file from the one site, then download the torrentfile from the site you want to upload to, assign the location of the source file (when it doesn't do so automatically), and start seeding. Make sure you don't seed the same file to different trackers at the same time from the same torrent file (i.e. 'add location'). This is prohibited by most trackers, since it'll screw with ratio's. Add the torrent file for the site you want to seed separately

i feel really dumb, but im still kinda lost.... I have the file downloaded and is seeding via my main vuze download section. I have now downloaded the torrent file from the other private site I want to seed/upload to but it wants to download the data again so I currently have it paused. I dont know how to make it see source file and complete so it can start seeding to other site.....

i think you are referring to cross-seeding... How to Cross-Seed safely

I'm not really familiar with vuze but I think it will be similar to utorrent so I will try to explain.
When your download is finished from the tracker that you have a high ratio and uploaded to that tracker for enough you can remove it.(I think it will be safer this without any confusion)

Then you download the .torrent file for the same download from your low ratio tracker and open it vuze.
Then stop the file and right click to the file come to advance and relocate or repostion your files to your previous download. Make sure you havve the same as the torrent file or change it as so. Then from the same advance menu check the files exist a force re-check in utorrent and vuze should do the rest. Then you can ssed the file to your new tracker.
Hope it will help
