Stalled Torrents

[m1cat]

Hi all Im new to this I keep getting stalled on some torrents whats does this mean as they wont download is this normal
Thank you also to say im very impressed otherwise downloads much faster than my previous bittorrent the search engine is so easy to use.

EDIT: No need for big letters, changed back to normal, thanks.

Possible that the seed is not available or tracker is not available. That would be normal, if for example a very new torrent, hasn't had chance to complete seeding yet or the seeder left temporarily.

I've had rare instances where I started it up and torrents I had downloading stayed stalled even with the majority being seeders with established connections. I paused them for about 20 seconds then resumed, they stayed stalled for another few moments but then started downloading normally again. Don't know if it's coincidence or if that somehow snapped qBT out of it.

loki will be right if there are 0 (or even just a couple) of seeders. Otherwise qBT might just be hiccuping.
