Info

The General tab is where you'll find most of the general statistics for the currently selected torrent job available.

Graphical Progress Bars

• The upper Downloaded bar is the general progress bar useful for getting a quick visual outlook of the percent completed. Selective file downloading is taken into account, so only the data you select to be downloaded will be counted. The number to the right of the Downloaded bar is the percentage of the torrent job that is completed, taking selective file downloading into account as well.
  • White represents what has not yet been downloaded.
  • Blue represents what has been downloaded.
• The lower Downloaded bar is equivalent to the upper bar, except that it does not take selective file downloading into account, and it also displays the distribution of pieces completed in your torrent job. If there are more pieces in the .torrent file than there are horizontal pixels for your desktop resolution, µTorrent will take the average completion of adjacent pieces to decide what colors should be shown.
  • White represents the pieces that have not yet been downloaded.
  • Blue represents the pieces that have been downloaded.
• The Availability bar shows the spread of the pieces in the network of peers you are connected to. If there are more pieces in the .torrent file than there are horizontal pixels for your desktop resolution, µTorrent will take the average completion of adjacent pieces to decide what colors should be shown. The number to the right is the actual availability of the selected torrent job.
  • Dark blue means the piece is available and common.
  • Light blue means the piece is available, but rare.
  torrent content size
  • Red means the piece is not available within the group of peers you are connected to.

Along with graphical progress bars, textual statistics are provided below. Any of these fields can be copied by right-clicking it and selecting "Copy". The following is a description of the information displayed (note that most of the information displayed here can be found in the torrent jobs list):

Transfer

• Time Elapsed displays the total amount of time accumulated that the torrent job has been started.
• Remaining displays the estimated amount of time needed for µTorrent to finish downloading the torrent job. If the torrent job is in seeding mode, then the ETA displays the estimated time it will take for µTorrent to reach the seeding goal. If the torrent job is stopped, this field will be blank. If the torrent job is transferring too slowly, or has reached its seeding goal, this field will display the ∞ symbol. Note that this field takes selective file downloading into account, so only the data you select to be downloaded will be counted.
• Wasted displays the amount of data that was downloaded and deleted, either from hashfails, or from redundant data. The number in the parentheses is the count for the number of hashfails that occurred.
• Downloaded displays the total amount of data you have downloaded, including those that were wasted or failed the hash check.
• Uploaded displays the total amount of data you have uploaded since the torrent job was added.
• Seeds displays the number of seeds you are connected to. The second number is the number of known seeds in the peer cache collected from the tracker, DHT, and PEX. The number in the parentheses is the number of seeds reported by the tracker scrape.
• Download Speed displays the current speed at which data is being downloaded for the individual torrent job. The number in the parentheses is the average download speed throughout the time that the torrent job was in Downloading mode.
• Upload Speed displays the current speed at which data is being uploaded for the individual torrent job. The number in the parentheses is the average upload speed throughout the time that the torrent job was started.
• Peers displays the number of peers you are connected to. The second number is the number of known peers in the peer cache collected from the tracker, DHT, and PEX. The number in the parentheses is the number of peers reported by the tracker scrape.
• Down Limit displays the maximum download rate limit set on the individual torrent job. If no limit is set, or the limit is set to 0, this field will display the ∞ symbol.
• Up Limit displays the maximum upload rate limit set on the individual torrent job. If no limit is set, or the limit is set to 0, this field will display the ∞ symbol.
• Share Ratio displays the ratio of uploaded data to downloaded data. You can calculate it by dividing the number beside the Uploaded field by the number beside the Download field. If the torrent job was added when the file was already complete (seeding the file upon adding), then the ratio will start from 0, and will be calculated based on the ratio of the uploaded data to the torrent content size.
• Status displays the status of that torrent as seen on the status column.

General

• Save As shows the location that the torrent contents are saved to on the disk.
• Total Size shows the total size of the torrent contents. The first number displays the total amount of data in the torrent contents, taking selective file downloading into account. The second number is the total amount of data you have downloaded that passed the hash checks and have been written to disk. If there is a third number here, then it's because you are using selective file downloading. That third number displays the total size of the torrent contents, not taking selective file downloading into account.Comment shows the comment placed in the .torrent file by the .torrent file's creator.
• Pieces shows the number of pieces in the torrent job, and the size of each of these pieces. The number in the parentheses indicates the number of pieces µTorrent has successfully acquired.
• Created On shows the date and time that the .torrent file was created along with the application that was used to create the .torrent file (if it can be determined).
• Created By shows whom the .torrent file was created by (if it was entered into it).
• Added On shows the date and time that the .torrent file was added by the user onto the torrents' jobs list.
• Completed On shows the date and time that the torrent job has been completed.
• Hash shows the .torrent file's info dictionary hash.
• Comment shows any comment that was entered into the .torrent file.
