See Brian's BitTorrent FAQ and Guide
http://btfaq.com/serve/cache/1.html
Seeding is the process of connecting to a torrent when you have a complete file. There are two ways to do this:
1.by leaving your client open after the download completes. Once you have the entire file you become a seed, and the BitTorrent client remains connected to the swarm, sending to other users until you close it.
2.by clicking on a torrent link (or opening a saved .torrent file) and selecting a filename of a file that has already completed. BitTorrent will check over the file and realize that it's already complete, and continue to connect to the tracker and serve as a seed.
Make sure you read the rules of the trackers you use also
Most all require seeding for a specific amount of time or to a certain ratio
uploading to the other ones who wants to download the same thing as you
In this torrent world all is about sharing: if nobody gives, nobody receives.
Seeding means that once youīve got what you wanted your job is not done, you received, now itīs your turn to give back. Donīt delete the files and let them running in your client, so others will get what you already got and everybody happy.
If you enjoy downloading, which is leeching
Then enjoy uploading, which is seeding
downloading=leeching
uploading=seeding
downloading & uploading=peers
Yes Sir, I'm Right On It!!
@daysleeper,,leave your torrents open after download has completed and you are "seeding"
btw,,welcome to FST and the torrent world
i too hav a problem, i downloaad movies from thepiratebay.org and sumtyms the audio doesnt come wid the video! is this becuz i remove the torrent while seeding(after download complete) or is it the file's problem????? and what exactly is seeding, in simple language?
Your problem is the codec? Try Gom Player. Its not related to seeding.
Seeding = Leave client open.Upload back to others.
Simple?
Thank you better2reign You are Awesome.

There are also a few codec packs if you like your current media player. One of them is the k-lite pack, I forget what the others are called.
