Priority setting is ignored when applied to a label or multiple torrents at once #1245
Comments
It sounds like you're asking this question in regards to working with ruTorrent instead of the native UI, but luckily there is a way to do this with the built-in commands. All of these next commands are meant to be run from the Ctrl-X prompt in the native terminal UI. This will set the priority to "off" for all files for all torrents:
If you wanted to just try turning off all items' priorities, you can do this instead:
If you don't have access to the terminal UI, there are programs like xmlrpc-c or pyrosimple's |
There's a bug in rTorrent 0.9.8/0.13.8. When I start a torrent after setting it's label to Priority: Don't Download or I manually select a bunch of torrents and right-click on the selection then select Priority: Don't Download then the torrents still download and the priority setting is ignored. The only way to get it to use any priority setting is to select a single torrent then go to the Files tab and set the Priority setting there. However that would take a long time for over 1,000 torrents!
The reason for me wanting to do this is because I've moved my torrents from 1 seedbox to another with a different company and when re-adding thousands of torrent files I want the seed count to be accurate instead of showing zero seeds. I can then sort the torrents by the least seeds to prioritise which torrents to download before they run out of seeds.
Do you have a suggestion please for a way to do what I want until this is fixed?
