Hi,

i'm trying to move from azureus to another torrent client, i've already tested deluge and am not entirely satified with it, performance wise.

I've installed ktorrent 3.2 on my ubuntu and try to see if it has all the features i require for my daily use.

Two things that seem to be missing are the following :
- RSS downloads can't be queued (paused) and not started right away
- torrent folder from which torrents can be loaded, would require to be loaded paused too..

Are those two features really missing or did i overlooked something ?
Are they available in the svn or can those features be emulated thru the script plugin ?

thx

Why do you want them to be paused ?

well because i don't want them to start right away, that's a basic feature found in almost all bittorrent applications i've seen so far..

It's important because i need to manage my disk space, several download applications are using the same disk and i need to make sure my bt app is not filling the disk by downloading torrents from my rss feeds.

But it's not only a matter of disk space, i usually use my bt app to simply keep a record of the various tv shows' history, i watch, through rss feeds..
And for most of them i don't have time to watch everything so i just start a few downloads from time to time and i have no need to download the whole broadcasts..

Having a "watch directory" would be quite nice too, it's more a headless app feature but it's present in many desktop apps too.
