#15 Burst doesn't want to shutdown normally

[Anonymous]

When asking burst to quit it starts stopping all
downloads... but this can take up to a couple of minutes.

when asked again, it will give error's and error's after
each other (each time you ask burst to quit)..

i just want to shutdown my windows by a normal way
while burst can download when i startup again..

any idea how to solve it?

Great work for the rest !

ps. How can i change the 'profile' when i'm already
downloading... seems i have to do it manually right?

You **have** to wait for the windows to close. If you
don't, your stats won't be sent to the tracker, and it won't
know that you've left the swarm and it won't record what
you've uploaded.

I will make sure you can't quit twice for the next version.

The problem seems to be that the commandline program
doesn't shut down....

problem 2 with this -> sometimes trackers are down...
probably this is the reason why burst won't shut down...

you can solve it by putting a timeout on it or so :)... no
response from tracker = shutdown program (on shutdown)

There is a timeout.. it's the same httptimeout as used for
normal tracker communications.

What does SOMETIMES, VERY RARELY happen is that the Win32
API flakes out, and the message to close the transfer is not
received. IF this happens, press "q" in the window that's
giving you trouble. It's status should say "closing.."
