From uTorrent to Deluge
Posted: Sat Jul 22, 2017 4:47 pm
Hi! As I don't want to have my main PC running all the time, I'm trying to switch from uTorrent (Windows) to Deluge (Raspbian on a RPi 1).
Naturally, Deluge on a RPi 1 is quite slow, but it kind of works. I'm using the console + the Windows client of Deluge. For the Windows client, I'm searching a couple of things I seem to be missing from uTorrent:
1) A "Completed" folder ("Finished" in terms of Deluge) -- apparently, I only see with the progress bar, if a torrent is finished, but unlike for uTorrent, I cannot find a "Completed" folder (only All, Downloading, Seeding, Queued and Error)
2) A "Remaining" column -- how much GB / MB are there still left to download?
3) A "completed on" column -- when has the torrent been finished?
4) A "file browser" for specifying, where to download certain labels. Apparently, this is only a text box and I have to copy + paste the path from the ssh window?
5) A way of specifying the label of certain download(s) right after clicking on magnet link(s). (Yes, I have the labels plugin installed but apparently it's only possible specify labels after adding them to the torrent list?)
6) A graphical way of showing the currently downloaded / still missing / unavailable chunks (an optional feature for me but quite nice anyway).
7) Some sort of indicator, how many "server requests" are pending -- as the RPi 1 is quite slow, it can take some time to add / delete / label torrents and I'd like some sort of number or something which shows me, how many such pending requests there still are
8) Some sort of indicator, what the deluge demon is most busy with at the moment. In top, I only see that the CPU is overloaded most of the time, but in the console, I can't see what Deluge is currently "really" doing.
Please advise. And if Deluge cannot do these things... Is there a similar "client / server" Torrent client somewhere that can do that (for Raspbian and Debian, maybe even with a Windows client like Deluge)?
Also, is it normal that the "move when completed" paths of labels are ignored most of the time? Most downloads seem to be stuck in the download folder, even though they are finished (or at least at 100 %).
Thanks!
