Deluge Forum

Hey folks. I'm a long time azureus user but I'd really like to use Deluge. It looks great and has some amazing potential. I have a small issue though.

I download a lot of music torrents, where albums are stored in directories (e.g. Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga by Spoon). I'm quite particular with my directory naming, so when I go to download a torrent, I will right click it in the azureus's import torrent dialog and choose "change download directory".

This allows me save a file as:
/media/Music/spoon - ga ga ga ga ga/01. whatever.mp3
Instead of:
/media/Music/Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga by Spoon/01. whatever.mp3

It would be super-cool if Deluge had this feature!

It already does. Under preferences make sure you select "Ask where to save each download"
edit: My bad, I misread, yeah it would be nice to be able to change the names of directories and files within the torrent.

This is definitely something we will be adding in the future.. as to when it will be implemented is another question.

I have some minimal knowledge of python and a lot of free time on my hands currently, so I'm going to attempt a patch (come morning... 3:16am here)
