Finding Movies When Seeders Are Scarce: Alternatives to YTS.mx and 1337x
What steps can be taken when there are no seeders available for a torrent? Are there alternative websites, aside from YTS.mx and 1337x, that are reliable for discovering movies?
Correct answer. And this is going to help way more than adding a few trackers. Also consider doing the port-forward in your router, if you're behind a NAT and it doesn't do it automatically. That makes even more peers available.
That's not what this is. You can download a supposedly dead torrent, add more trackers that might have peers available for that torrent to it, and re-add the modified torrent to your client.
In my client (Transmission) you can double click any torrent to open an extra windows with various details. There you find a tab "trackers" and at the bottom an option to add trackers. Then I can just copy-paste in the entire list.
