Some great features for KT

Sat Jul 22, 2006 5:25 am
Yesterday I downloaded and compiled the SVN ,and I was happy to see that this one had no problems with downloading , seeding ,gui updates and so on ,I`m still testing kt to make sure I can use it as my primary torrent client.But I see that It`s improved a lot since the last time I compiled it.

I would realy like to see these features/fixes in the next versions of KT ,cause they would make it realy nice to use:

-the uploaded torrents part of the gui contains the downloaded , down speed ,% complete and time left tab ,wich is I think obsolete for that part

-I think it would be a good idea to replace those tabs with others ,like ratio ,leechers ,seeding rank or other upload related tabs

-another greate improvement would be a plugin or something named "autoremove torrent" ,this would have at least two rules to remove a torrent ,for example one would look like this "if a torrent`s ratio is at least 0.8 and it has been in the seed for a week then remove" or another would be like this "if a torrent`s ratio is above 2 then remove"

After 2.0 we will probably make columns configurable and more columns, making stuff different by default might not be a bad idea.

We haven't really decided what to do after 2.0, we will see when we decide the todo list.

I would appreciate possibility to manage torrents from different trackers or torrents of different kinds (music, vids, ...) in tabs, you may want to have them arranged in groups and have more sophistic view

Yeah, this is a must. It really boosts user experience with KTorrent.

If user run first time KTorrent, it should look exactly as now. The easy use for first timers is good practice. Tabs can be opened for example the same way as in the Konqueror.

I can see where this would be good. We could add multiple tabs and then allow the user to drag and drop torrents between them. Then you can organize them how you want. You can have a music tab, a move tab, a linux iso tab ...
