Hello,
right now I use qBittorrent, but Deluge is really nice.
But I have a problem: The specifications of torrent defines to only use one tracker and contact the others only if the main tracker is not availabe.
Is there an options to force deluge to conntact all trackers?
Often one tracker has no peers and others do. So I'd like to use all trackers which works quite nice with qBittorrent.
Bye

Option to force Deluge to use multiple trackers at once?
Re: Option to force Deluge to use multiple trackers at once?
This has been discussed before in IRC but I cannot remember the details/conclusion however I know that it is only available in libtorrent 0.15 so we could not include these in 1.3.x due to backward compatibility.
These are the session settings available in libtorrent 0.15 for multi tracker torrents:
These are the session settings available in libtorrent 0.15 for multi tracker torrents:
announce_to_all_trackers controls how multi tracker torrents are treated. If this is set to true, all trackers in the same tier are announced to in parallel. If all trackers in tier 0 fails, all trackers in tier 1 are announced as well. If it's set to false, the behavior is as defined by the multi tracker specification. It defaults to false, which is the same behavior previous versions of libtorrent has had as well.
announce_to_all_tiers also controls how multi tracker torrents are treated. When this is set to true, one tracker from each tier is announced to. This is the uTorrent behavior. This is false by default in order to comply with the multi-tracker specification.

Should have added that if you create a feature-request ticket and mark it for 1.4 milestone then it won't be forgotten about. It may not be set as default in Deluge but the option could be made available in preferences.
Re: Option to force Deluge to use multiple trackers at once?
Ticket #1395, requesting multi-tracker/multi-tier announcements, was opened on 2010-11-10. It has been marked for milestone 1.4.

+1 for this
currently I am editing the tracker lists manually to collect their peers lists ( ie forcing connected tracker to fail )

I have also noticed that if I change the tracker list order that the Status tab still shows the original tracker, and the Details tab shows the new highest priority tracker.

That issue deserves a separate thread. Anyway, that's happening to some (not all) of my torrents in 1.3.1 as well. Strange.Lazybones wrote:If I change the tracker list order, the Status tab still shows the original tracker, and the Details tab shows the new highest priority tracker.
Re: Option to force Deluge to use multiple trackers at once?
The 'tracker status' in status tab is returned by libtorrent and should change over time rather than immediately, make sure you have latest version of libtorrent. However please do not continue the discussion here, as funnel said this should be in a separate thread or bug ticket.Lazybones wrote:I have also noticed that if I change the tracker list order that the Status tab still shows the original tracker, and the Details tab shows the new highest priority tracker.
