File Details

The File Details window provides a comprehensive view of a file's current state, its download progress, ICH corruption-handling statistics, known alternative file names, and controls to rename the file before it completes.

Open it by right-clicking a file in the Downloads window and selecting File Details (or via the shortcut).

View Details

General

Field	Description
Full Name	The name the file will have when it completes (or its current name if already complete)
met-File	Path to the file's part.met metadata file; for completed files this equals the Full Name path
Hash	The file's eD2k hash
Filesize	The file's total size when complete (or current size if complete)
Partfilestatus	The file's current status (see table below)
Last seen complete	The last time a source with the complete file was seen on the network

Partfilestatus values:

Status	Description
Complete	The file has been successfully downloaded
Completing	The download has finished and the file is being finalized (moved into place)
Hashing	The file's hash is being computed or it is waiting to be hashed
Allocating	Disk space for the file is being allocated
Downloading	The file is actively being downloaded (at least one source is uploading to you)
Waiting	The file is waiting for a source to upload to you (no source is currently uploading)
Paused	The file has been paused
Stopped	The file has been stopped
Insufficient disk space	There is not enough free disk space to continue
Erroneous	An error occurred reading or creating the file

note

Stopped is not a separate internal state: it is shown whenever the file is stopped (and not yet complete), overriding the Downloading/Waiting text.

Transfer

The Transfer section shows statistics and progress details for the download:

Field	Description
Found Sources	Number of sources currently known for the file
Transferring Sources	Number of sources currently uploading to you
Filepart-Count	Total number of chunks the file is divided into; in brackets, the number of chunk hashes known
Available	Number of chunks known to be available from sources, and in brackets the percentage of total chunks
Datarate	Current download speed for this file (more precise than the Downloads window; shows up to two decimal places)
Download Active Time	Total time the file has spent actively downloading, shown as hours and minutes
Transferred	Total data received for this file (includes any corrupted data that was later discarded)
Completed Size	Amount of verified data completed, followed by the percentage of the total file size shown in brackets, e.g. 12.3 MB / (45.6% done) (more accurate than the percentage shown in the Downloads window)

note

When a file is complete, some Transfer values may reset to zero.

Intelligent Corruption Handling

This section shows statistics from the ICH (Intelligent Corruption Handling) subsystem:

Field	Description
Lost to corruption	Amount of downloaded data that was discarded after being identified as corrupt
Gained by compression	Data saved thanks to the eD2k protocol's zlib compression — less is transferred over the network than the verified data written to disk. For a completed file this equals Completed Size − Transferred
Packages saved by I.C.H.	Number of packets rescued from corrupt chunks by ICH, avoiding a full re-download

File Names

This is a list of names that other clients have reported for the same file (identified by its hash):

Column	Description
File Name	The name as reported by a source
Sources	Number of sources that reported this name

The list is sorted by source count (most-reported names first) and is useful for detecting fakes — if many sources report a different name from what you downloaded, the file may not be what it claims to be.

note

Not all sources report a filename. The list is rebuilt from the file's current sources on each refresh, so it empties once the file completes and its sources are released.

Rename

You can change the name the file will receive when it completes. Type the new name in the text field and click Apply to rename without closing the window, or Ok to rename and close it at once:

To use one of the names from the File Names list, select it and click Takeover (or double-click the name) to copy it into the text field, then click Apply:

Cleanup Function

Click Cleanup to automatically clean up the filename currently in the text field before renaming:

The cleanup function performs the following steps in order:

1. Makes the extension lowercase and does not touch it further (the dot before the extension is also preserved throughout).
2. Replaces dots (.), underscores (_), and HTML space codes (%20) with single spaces.
3. Removes the literal scene tag hYPNOTiC (matched with that exact mixed-case spelling, before the name is lowercased).
4. Makes the entire filename lowercase.
5. Uppercases the substring xxx to XXX.
6. Removes known release-group and site tags:
   • www pornreactor com
   • sharereactor
   • found via www filedonkey com
   • deviance
   • adunanza
   • -ftv
   • flt
   • []
   • ()
7. Uppercases the following acronyms: CD, VCD, DVD, ISO, PC. CD, VCD, and DVD are also uppercased when directly followed by a digit (e.g. cd1 → CD1), while ISO and PC are only matched as standalone words.
8. Capitalises the first letter of every word.
9. Removes duplicate spaces.
10. Removes dots after space characters.
11. Removes trailing spaces.
12. Replaces By with by.

note

Completed files cannot be renamed from the File Details window. Use the Rename option in the Shared Files window instead.

Click Show all comments to open the Comments window for this file:

This is especially useful on macOS with a single-button mouse, where the Downloads window right-click menu is not accessible.

When you open File Details with several downloads selected, the arrow buttons at the bottom let you step through them — moving to the previous or next file in the selection without closing the window.

Click Cancel to close the window. Any unapplied rename changes are discarded:
