| Some basic info on torrent (You must know them)
Ok,first a very basic info.Our site is a torrnet site and all the stuffs (video or audio) you are going to download will use this torrent technology.
Torrent works in a different way than the normal downloads.May be you are very used to with direct downloads from websites like you will get a link in the site,click on the link and download will be started.NO BROTHER.The link you will get from this site is not the file you are looking for.It has other function (discussed later,dont worry!!!!)
Please be patient and carefully read and follow the instructions and infos.We are asking just your 15 mins to get some basic knowledge.Once you understand these,your life will be very easy.
Let us discuss some basic terms:-
1)BitTorrent: shohoj kothai bittorrent hochchhe file transfer korar ekta new technology.At present world,file transfer er ei tai best,easiest,cheapest and fastest tecnology.
(for advance user:-It is based on peer-to-peer technology,as the file transfer does not take place via server and users connect to each other directly to send and receive portions of the file. However, central server (named tracker) is there which helps the BitTorrent client to establish connections with other clients.You can call it a modified version of kaaza)
2) Seed/Seeder: Someone who has the complete file and lets others download it from him/her with Bittorrent.Remember there must be at least one seeder to complete the downloading.The more seeders in a particular torrent,the faster you will be able to complete your download.
Seeder can be of 3 types:-
(a) The person who releases the torrent and acts as the 1st person to start the torrent.
(b) The person who finished downloading and leaves his bittorrent client open so that others can download from him.
(c) The person who already has the file and decides to help the community by restarting his bit torrent client to let others downloadfrom him. (This is basically termed as reseeding. EXPLAINED IN ANONNO THREAD.GIVE LINK HERE)
3) Leecher: Some one who is downloading the file and hasn't finished yet.
4) Peers: All those who are connected (ie.leechers+seeders) are termed as peers.
5) Torrent: This is the file we will provide to you.It is a small file(in kbs).See the circled file below.Its called torrent file.
Please remember,its not the file you are looking for.ei file diye apni ashol file (video ba audio) download korte parben ebong ei file ta bit torrent client (See point 7 below) chara onno kono software diye open o kora jab na.
6) Tracker: The server which is managing all the connenctions between leechers and seeders.For example,our Banglatorrents.com is tracker
7) Bit torrent client: Its just a software ja diye torrent file chalano hoi ebong ei software tai apnar original file (video,audio) ke download korbe.ek baar ei software ta start kore dile eta automatically apnar file download korbe.apnake arr kichu korte hobe na.
Bittornado,ABC,Bitcomet,Azerous are some famous Bit torrent client these days.
