StaticX Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 (edited) ok, I have a question concerning Bittorrent Trackers: I want to upload a series to Nyaa and also AnimeBytes. Uploading to Nyaa is no problem, but AnimeBytes is a Private site so I can't put other trackers in the Torrent file. I was thinking of uploading the Files to my seedbox via FTP so that the different torrents would leech off the same folder, would that work?

Moodkiller Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 Yes it would. As long as you have the ability to choose the save location of your torrents and a "force recheck" option. It will work. This is the setup I have on my seedbox at home. Rutorrent supports all that I mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnFlower Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 But if you're using ruTorrent/rTorrent, you cant add a torrent with the same hash twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moodkiller Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 Not to sure if that was directed to me or the OP, or neither in particular, but I assumed that StaticX would have made the 2 torrents already, one with the private tracker and one without.

Yep, that's the Idea I'm thinking about. The Files would be on the Seedbox, then I make the 2 torrents with the respective Trackers in them, add them to Transmission which I'm using as a Remote to access the Seedbox (I've configured it) and use force Re-check on the Folder.

Transmission has a force re-check option?? I wasnt aware/dont think it has. In the early days of me setting up my seedbox, I gave transmission a go but couldn't find a re-check option through the gui - either that or the option to set a download location for a torrent, cant remember which one . But yes, then that setup would work =] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnFlower Posted January 2, 2015 Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 Yeah... Pretty sure rTorrent is the only torrent client that offers the option to change the save directory. It is the only client to use in this case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
† SakuraChan Posted January 2, 2015 Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 you can use vuze, utorrent, qbittorrent, and Deluge for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

† SakuraChan Posted January 2, 2015 Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 thats cli with a web interface (known for just seedboxes) run as a daemon and you just connect via web interface Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moodkiller Posted January 2, 2015 Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 thats cli with a web interface (known for just seedboxes) run as a daemon and you just connect via web interface I see... I wonder how close they have that (the web interface) to the windows version? As in all the features. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
† SakuraChan Posted January 2, 2015 Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 its just like the windows version webinterface is or was nothing to fancy, tho deluge is another good choice or even qbittorrent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnFlower Posted January 2, 2015 Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 (edited) Yes, but for a seedbox environment, one where the need for cross-seeding torrents is required, rTorrent is the only client you can choose (at least when I last checked ~3 months ago).

Koby Posted January 3, 2015 Report Share Posted January 3, 2015 Yeah... Pretty sure rTorrent is the only torrent client that offers the option to change the save directory. It is the only client to use in this case.no. Transmission works fine for this. I use it to change directories and I also use it to seed the same files from two different torrents (one for animebytes and the other for nyaa).

JohnFlower Posted January 3, 2015 Report Share Posted January 3, 2015 (edited) I'm not too sure you understand what I mean... Take two torrents: torrent a and torrent b. Torrent a creates the directory 'a' while torrent b creates the directory 'b'. Both torrents have exactly the same data. How does Transmission handle this? Edit: nvm. Apparently this is now a feature in 2.80. Edited January 3, 2015 by JohnFlower Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just thinking about one of my earlier posts, I believe it was deluge that didnt have the force re-check ability, so it would just re-download the same files.
