Awaiting Sources status restart?

[gertblij]

I understand from the archives that the download status "Awaiting Sources" means that the original source has disapeared. I also undertand that to search again or download from multiple sources is often the best solution.

However, this doesn't always produce results.

My question is whether files Awailing Sources will continue downloading automatically when the original source comes back online or must they be manually restarted with Resume Download?

TIA

In theory they should restart. In practice I find that if I do a fresh search for the file in question, this can somehow prompt a restart, which otherwise MIGHT not happen

I hope this helps.

another thing you might like to know is that many people prefer to do a general search rather than just audio or video ... and find this turns up more results.
