Just now I turned off my box. Was downloading Lost Planet trailer (43% done) and nothing happened. Resumed at 43% smile.gif But this maybe because I stopped the download first before I turned off the box but then again it could be something else

It was terminated suddenly? I got a tip. When I stop the download before I turn off the console, the progress is not affected.

Don't think you need to manually stop the download before shutting down. That's not how it's meant to work. I just turn off my console while downloading and when I re-started my console it just continued from previous %.

dudes...i got some tips...i've experienced this many time...
its very simple....
when u start downloading a brand new thing..it may start at 1% or it may jump to 50%..
the trick here is that if yours starts at 1% cancel the download immediatly and resume ur download and wait about 30 seconds..i will often jump to 50%...if it doesn't..try a few more times...
works for me...

that doesn't really mean ur download has completed 50% .. its just a bug...and it'll take very long to reach 51% after that since its actually starting back from 1% itself until it actually reaches 51%

haha yea..sort of...
but i calculated the time it takes...
the time from 50% to 100% is faster than 1% to 100%

Yes, it would seem like the download doesn't properly know where it stopped when it stops automatically, ie. power off or start a multiplayer game. So I would think the best thing to do is to remember to stop downloads when you're going to do those things.

In case you're wondering how to stop downloads when you're in a game, press the guide button-> personal settings -> Active Downloads.
