The priority setting for files allows the user to somehow choose which files should be downloaded or uploaded faster than others (if possible). In other words, which files are more urgent than others.

For downloading files, the following possible priority values exist:

  • High: There is an urge to download the file.
  • Medium: There is no urge to download the file but it is definitely more urgent than those with low priority.
  • Low: There is no urge to download the file.
  • Auto: Let aMule decide which files should take more priority than which others one depending on the amount of sources they have.

For uploading files, the following possible priority values exist:

  • Release: You want to release this file and make it as publicly available to as you possibly can.
  • Very high: It is really important to you that clients get this file.
  • High: There is an urge to upload the file to as much clients as possible.
  • Medium: There is no urge to upload the file but it is definitely more urgent than those with low priority.
  • Low: There is no urge to upload the file.
  • Very low: There is no urge at all to upload the file.
  • Auto: Let aMule decide which files should take more priority than which others one depending on the amount of clients that ask for them.
