Feature request: Skip Hash check

Wed Apr 18, 2007 7:12 pm
Would it be possible to implement that?
Some private trackers require you to download your own torrent to start seeding, that means a double check (one to create the torrent, another to check it!).
The feature could be useful when you import completed torrent from other clients.
Ktorrent should "trust" you and like utorrent does if filenames are the same.

Thanks!

You want to import stuff without a data check ?

Presumably these trackers only want you to to use a tracker URL with your passkey in it. So you need to actually go and download the torrent from their site.

Maybe we can add a check box in the open torrent dialog, which is not enabled by default. And when it is checked, we show a warning before we close the dialog.

Yes, that would be very useful, thanks.
