![]() I'm having this problem ALOT lately, and i need it fixed asap. Here it is: I have a static ip setup and the proper ports forwarded to my computer for Frostwire. I will search a movie, and i will get alot of sources so i double click and soon i get "connecting(X host tried)" (where x is any given number that increases) and then it switches to "need more sources" so i click find sources. it says connecting for a while, then says, "waiting 300s for sources" you know what i mean. then it goes to "awaiting sources" which i know is crap cuz there's like 94 sources as it says in the search. any help would be great. no matter how many times i click resume it does nothing. |

![]() There are fake files all over the network. They'll sit connecting for ages, then get stuck needing sources forever. Always check movie files with Bitzi before download. If a file has heaps of sources but no Bitzi rating, chances are it's a fake (just because a file has heaps of sources, doesn't mean that they're genuine sources ![]() There's a lot more info & tips in these 2 threads, including info about using Bitzi. The threads are referring to LW but still apply to FW. Fake files showing up in search results How to find music Last edited by birdy; June 25th, 2007 at 03:00 AM. |
