QBT not seeding files below a certain size

Post by GraveDigger »

good day,

i just installed qbt and adjusted my preferences including having qbt stop seeding at a 1:1 ratio, but for some reason if the file is below a certain size as soon as the download is done qbt stops seeding it. i've tested with several files ranging from 155 megs to over 6 gigs and the behavior doesn't vary. please any idea why this might be happening? thanks

Well we'd need to see those preferences because something is misconfigured...

I am on qBittorrent v4.2.1 and tested the seed limit at 1 with a couple of small size torrents. It works as expected for me. I've never used this function before.
