Hi
it would be nice if you hit "manual anounce" on a stoped torrent, it actually conect for that time only, and show the number of peers, availability, and stuff.
when i decide my queue i look on the numbre of peers, so i download first the one that has less seeds
also i only seed one torrent at a time, because of my low speed, again if will be nice to seed the "most needed" torrent
at the time, i have to go to settings -> configure ktorrent -> and change the maximun numer of torrents to 0 (unlimited), wait for an anounce, and change again to limited.

PD: there is achance that you dont understend anything i have say, specially for my **** inglish, feel fre to ask and correct me :D

So, what would be usefull in your eyes:

1) a manual scrape on a torrent feature to finger the leechers & seeders in the swarm (this is not a manual announce)
2) an option for seeding mode where you can enable it for "seed only the most needed torrent" (something similar to azureus?)

Hmm, let's look what the devs have to say about it. I like them. :)
I have also a
3.) manual recheck data
(i got a torrent corrupted today by a local LAN transfer; after this, the peers couldn't complete anymore and where stuck at 99.91%.
KTorrent still thinks the torrent is fine because i didn't used the import plugin but i placed the torx folder back)

OK, thats what i want :D

this could be nice, but i never trusted in azureus, specially because the program don't know in wich traker i want to have better ratio ;)

I'm planning to do the manual recheck (shouldn't be much work, the code is allready there for the import)

We'll see about the other features, we do not have all the time in the world.
