Description

Through this windows you can see the selected file's details and you will be able to manage some of its settings.

http://www.amule.org/dev-up/window_file1.jpg

Usage

View details

General

The fields in the General box window are pretty intuitive:

  • Full Name: The name it will be given when it is completed
  • met-File: Path where the file's part.met file is located
  • Hash: The file's hash
  • Filesize: The file's total size once it is completed
  • Partfilestatus: The file's status. I'ts values are described later
  • Last seen complete: Last time a source with the complete file was seen

http://www.amule.org/dev-up/window_file2.jpg

The possible value for the Partfilestatus field and their meanings are:

Status Description
 !!!!!! FILL THIS  !!! FILL ME!!

Transfer

The Tranfser box shows statistics and details about the file's downloading overall process:

  • Found Sources: Amount of sources currently known for the file
  • Transferring Sources: Amount of sources currently uploading the file to you
  • Filepart-Count: Amount of chunks the file is devided into
  • Available: Amount of chunks of the file known to be available and the percentage this amount represents out of the total amount of chukns the file is composed of (in brackets)
  • Datarate: Speed in which the file is currently being uploaded to you. This field is more verbose than the speed reported in the [[[Usage_Transfer|Transfer]] window, since it displays up to two decimals
  • Transferred: Amount of data you have recieved for this file. This includes corrupted data if any was ever recieved
  • Completed: Amount of data you have comnpleted of the file (NOTE: This includes all data which hasn't yet been verified to be valid). The overall percentage this amount of data is to the file's total size is shown in brackets (again, this percentage is more accurate than the one that can be displayed in the Transfers window)

Intelligent Corruption Handling

This box displays the statistics about the corruption handling:

  • Lost to corruption: Amount of downloaded data which has been dropped because it has been known to be corrupted

!!! MAKE SURE THIS IS CORRECT

  • Packages saved by I.C.H.: Amount of data saved from corrupt chunks thanks to the ICH function
  • Gained by compression: Amount of data which could be saved from downloading because of the protocol's compression capacities (Completed size - Transferred size)

http://www.amule.org/dev-up/window_file4.jpg

File names

This is a list of known names other clients have given this file. The File Name column displays the file it has been given and the Source column displays how much sources have reported to have given it that file name.

http://www.amule.org/dev-up/window_file5.jpg

This is a good place to see if a file is a fake.

Not that not all sources report the filename they have given to the file.

Rename

From this window you can rename the file's name when it will be completed. Just enter the filename yuo wish it to have in the text box and click the Rename button.

http://www.amule.org/dev-up/window_file6.jpg

You can easily change it with any of the filenames listed in the File Names list by clicking the filename you wish to adpot and then the Takeover button. This will write the filename in the text box. Now, as usual, click the Rename button.

http://www.amule.org/dev-up/window_file7.jpg

If you wish to perform some cleanup to the filename i the text box, you can click the Cleanup button. Remember to click the Rename button to apply the filename change.

http://www.amule.org/dev-up/window_file8.jpg

This is what the cleanup function exactly does:

  • !!! FILL ME!

Other

This window also provides an easy way to access the Comments window. Just click the Show all comments button.

http://www.amule.org/dev-up/window_file9.jpg

This may be very handy for those users who have no access to the file's context emnu in the Transfers window (mainly some Mac users), since the File Details window is easily accessible from the Transfers windows through Shortcuts.

To close the window, just click the Close button. It wil not apply changes which have not been applied yet.
