Additional extension for files not at 100%

Post by tizio_caio »

Hi there!

What about this idea?

Something like the '.!ut' extension used by uTorrent.

I find it useful... ;)

Bye!

Oh well...nothing! :)

Just, you get into the dir where you are downloading a torrent and instantaneously you can see witch file are fully downloaded (those without the !ut extension) and which are not (those with !ut extension).

I find it useful.

I would find it also useful, because move torrent plugin isn't working. It's annoying to manually check which files are complete. It works yeah, but it still takes time and concentration. And especially with large number of files it's not so fun.

If move torrent would work, I would keep separate directories for complete and non-compelete stuff. Which is IMHO better solution.

Just thought I'd chime in again on this topic. I would find this useful because I have another computer monitoring my torrent download directory for new movies, but it has no way to tell which ones are completed. If an extension was added to the incomplete ones my monitoring wouldn't pick them up till they had a proper movie extension. Right now there is no way for me to do this with Deluge.

Or you could use the plugin for web user interface. That would show you what's finished and what's not.

create a completed folder and use the move torrent plugin to move the completed files to it.

There is still one open question. Does completed mean that all goals like seeding ratio have been achieved or is it just completed downloading?! Afaik, completed means that downloading is done. But it doesn't mean that seeding would be completed or ratio would have been met.

So even if file is in completed downloads, you shouldn't remove it. Is this a problem for you? I mean if you usually move files out from completed downloads immediately when it's done.

Just stirring this discussion. ;)
