Sync Keep On Syncing Same File Over And Over Again

I have been absolutely delirious when i came upon BitTorrent Sync and reading reviews I've immediately donwloaded it. Once I got the know its functionality it was now time to put it to real "work". 

 

Shooting commercial I wanted to keep everyting we shot on set to start syncing to server via FTTH. All worked fine. 

 

1) Now that the footage had been sorted out, labeled, metadata altered etc. and stored to Drobo5D, I sent a read only key to the editor offsite as this particular project gets handled outside the studio.

2) Meanwhile I received a read only key from sound artist to download all sorts to our editing station.

 

To the problem:

1) it was syncing ok for a while, say 3 hours, and after that just nothing. stops syncing, footage is no longer being sent outside?! Also the folder added to my local sync says 170 GB, whereas Mac OS X Finder says the folder is 184 GB in size. Where the discrepancy?!

 

2) 240 files synced OK except "179" which syncs to 100%, then starts re-syncing?!

 

I am a bit desperate as I actually got to like this program so much i wanted to go PRO and include it in our other businesses in 6 days that the trial is over, but these glitches made me think. What should i do?
