Add to top of Queue

Thu Nov 19, 2009 1:46 pm
Hey, is there any way to set up ktorrent to add new torrents to the top of the Queue?

My system is set to seed after download and as a result (of my slow internet connection) has a large and growing list of seeding torrents.

I also have it set up to automatically download torrents from a few RSS feeds.

The problem is that my new torrents get added to the bottom of the download queue and stall. I can solve this by manually raising them to highest priority, but this system is meant to be automated, so that kind of misses the point.

thanks,
ANkh

Valid point, we need to add an option like that.

Where does ktorrent store the queue order? Is it stored in a file outside of ktorrent? Or is it somehow calculated dynamically?

I would like to see the option to add a torrent to either the top or bottom of the queue, but for a different reason:

I move new releases to the top of the queue, but torrents ive downloaded before but lost (due to HDD crash or damaged CDs) I put to the bottom of the queue.

To be able to place the torrent at either end of the queue before it starts; would save me and others a bit of time.

Sam wrote:I haven't done enough with the group or file path APIs yet, but you could possibly modify the same script to set it to the bottom of the queue based upon which group or file path you load the torrent to.

As of the current scripting API there doesn't seem to be any way to determine what group(s) a specific torrent belongs to. The opposite (what group contain what torrents) doesn't seem supported either.

I think George mentioned in some thread that the scripting API would be updated to the 4.0rc1 release, so cross your fingers ;)
