Hey guys,

Thanks for being patient. I am a new iPhone user. I went from owning the cheapest phone money could buy to the 3gs about two months ago. Im in love with the phone. I am a very fast learner, I'm like a sponge I soak it all up pretty quickly. Through a minimal amount of research it was clear to be that I wanted to jailbreak. I literally knew nothing about it or the phone so I researched a little more. Currently, I have jailbroken my OS 3.1.2 firmware on my 3gs through blackra1n. I am a PC user. I have downloaded Cydia and Rock and find myself using the latter more often.

Here is my issue:
I have downloaded dtunes and have begun to torrent a file. Upon completion of said file being downloaded, I could not find it in my dtunes. It took quite a while to download and all xxx/xxx/xxx numbers are equaled and it said it was completed. I must have typed something because I am now prompted this:

"Possible values are:
stdout
stderr
off
a filename

Enter a destination:
Interactive output channel is now qw"

maybe I hit "qw"??

Also, I'm aware that dtunes states in it's information bar that all files are stored at "var/mobile/media/downloads" but I am unaware
of how to locate this and was under the impression dtunes did it automatically. I fear I might have just messed up the download, which is unfortunate because it took 422 minutes even in wi-fi. If anyone has any idea what I might have done wrong, I'd be much obliged.

Mind you this is all from my mobile terminal.
thank you for your patience and your help
 
Ok,

When i go into dtunes' "browse" file it has the file of the torrent I downloaded but when you click on it, it doesn't play anything. It just shows you what is in the file such as:
(title).avi
DVD_cover.jpeg

etc.

Am I not unzipping something correctly? When I log back into mobile terminal and type the standard "./gettorrent" it lists all of those sand files from the torrent and I beleive it is seeding. I'm really lost after that and have exhausted the extent of all I have learned in the past two days.
