Peertube: Seed videos from torrent client to PeerTube instance.

Created on 13 Jul 2020  路  3Comments  路  Source: Chocobozzz/PeerTube

Correct me if I'm wrong but as far as I understand users can only seed from the instance to other users as long as they're watching _the same video at the same time_. If that's the case; wouldn't it be nice to seed from torrent client to the users which are viewing the video directly?

@k09i71, WebTorrent doesn't show any peers so is BitTorrent. But on the video it displays 6 peers for example. I'm not completely sure to be honest. :(

Found this link but I guess my seeds are not preffered for that point in time? ._.

@doneforaiur WebSeeds are not taken into account in the count, only clients connected to the tracker are.
