/g/, I'm looking for a linux torrent client that can relocate files within a torrent to another directory, as utorrent can. I have tried Deluge and qbittorrent so far and neither can do more than rename files and folders.
>>
>>59774613
Vuze
Why would you want to relocate individual files? If it's for cross-seeding Vuze can also automatically detect duplicate files in all your torrents and symlink them.

I'll check out Vuze, thanks.

Unfortunately Vuze isn't in the ARM repository for Ubuntu.

This probably made sense in your head. Maybe.

No it didn't I'm just shitposting.
>>
>>59774834
Oh, apparently it's not in the repos since Trusty. Either use getdeb if it's available for ARM or run it off your ~
Beware, it's java, you need a lot of ram to launch it, though it's actually cpu- and ram-efficient when you have hundreds of active torrents.

Not gonna work for me, then. I'm setting up an ARM shitbox to host some torrents with. I've only got 1GB of RAM to work with.

Appreciate the response, though.

Let's try to approach the problem from a different angle: can I rename the files in qbit/Deluge and then move them, while leaving a symlink behind in the original folder? Would that work?
>>
>>59776850
Sounds like it's worth a try. I've served html documents through a symlink before
>>
transmission
>>
>>59776950

I'm not getting whatever it is you're showing me.

The called script is interesting though, if the symlink idea works. Or not I guess, as I'd more than likely need to rename it first.

Also, Transmission doesn't allow for limiting traffic to a particular interface (VPN) like qbit and Deluge do.
>>
rtorrent

>>59774613

Dude what the fuck? Both of those can relocate files just fine, I moved over 500 torrents a couple months ago in Deluge with just a couple clicks.

No. You gents are mistaking moving the whole torrent structure to another location versus what I want, which is ignoring the folder structure packaged within the torrent for a layout of my own devising.

uTorrent does this. No other client I've tried, except Tixati if memory serves from years back, can do this.

I'm checking it out but if it doesn't do it, I'm going to come back here and kiss you. Bear in mind that I have stubble and a distinct lack of attraction.

Transmission allows you to change the location easily, it's literally right-click menu option (set location).
>Also, Transmission doesn't allow for limiting traffic to a particular interface (VPN) like qbit and Deluge do.
True, but a simple way around this is to make a systemd-nspawn/docker container and setup transmission and openvpn in that. You can then setup transmission webui from there and have it running and access transmission through your web browser.
And yes you can still set the download location through the webui.

Just use symlinks?

That's a new meme for me.

It's sardonically amusing, really. Googling around the individual clients' projects, you can find bugtracker tickets where someone will ask for this feature and this very thread is repeated in the posts.

So symlinks only work on ext2-ext4 and not on FAT-based formats.

Sucks because I was using a 64GB stick to serve up audiobooks to MAM. Now I'm thinking about whether I want to keep simple swap capability vis a vis my Win7 box.
>>
I dug out an old 500GB Seagate USB drive and formatted it ext4.

Using Deluge, I set the download location as my /home/ folder. I then copied off the completed torrent content to the Seagate and used
>ln -s <current content location> <desired content spoof folder>
to create a symlink.
>Ubuntu right-click "Make Link" makes the wrong sort of symlink
Then back to Deluge, select "Force Re-check" and booyah! It works.

I can live with this unless I have to symlink something with dozens of files.

>>59774645

Use Wine. It's a compatibility layer, not an emulator (hence WINE), so you can run it natively.

Wine only uses about 30MB of memory, at most. You'd have to worry about HDD space, if anything, but even then it's piss cheap.

That's not bad but I also use this box for Kodi. I'm having to scrape every last bit of the 1GB I can find to use for buffering my sweet mlb.tv premium subscription from the T-mo promotion on Tuesday.

Another downside is that if I did use uTorrent, I'd have to dig into iptables to keep it locked to the VPN. I'd rather contract cancer than deal with iptables.

I appreciate the alternative ideas though.

Somebody already suggested rtorrent, probably as a troll. You're late to the party.

Transmission? Ah yes thats the one that derped and distributed ransoware. Okey. bye.

>>59783640
Pretty sure that was because of the auto-updater in the Mac build. Don't recall it affecting the Windows builds, let alone any Linux distributions. Could be wrong though, been a while since this was last brought to my attention.
