ScytheNoire Posted April 24, 2016 Report Share Posted April 24, 2016 "Append the torrent's label to the directory name" This feature has been around for a long time, but has just recently disappeared with last few builds. Cannot seem to find substitute in settings that works. Even uTorrents Help Website mentions the feature that is now missing: http://help.utorrent.com/customer/portal/articles/164816 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted April 24, 2016 Report Share Posted April 24, 2016 New labels rules system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScytheNoire Posted April 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2016 Tried that, but doesn't seem to work the same way. Want it to, when finished, go to the folder I state, but instead it just keeps going to my standard default completed folder. The label rule system doesn't seem to work as it should. Why get rid of the single checkbox that worked with a system that doesn't seem to work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted April 24, 2016 Report Share Posted April 24, 2016 Because it was a stop-gap measure for the new label system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubJunk07 Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 I'm missing this feature, too. Is there a way to use the new label system to do what the old one did? Edit: I figured it out, the only difference is you have to add the labels to the new feature manually for each label Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubJunk07 Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 Actually I take it back, it won't work because you can't remove the default labels. Please make it so the default ones can be removed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted May 14, 2016 Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 Why are the default labels in the way? I still don't see how the new system can be used like the previous one when you need to define filters, and only when the "catch" you get the desired result (was unconditional before).

SubJunk07 Posted May 14, 2016 Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 The "Label-directory Mapping" part seems like it has the potential to be the same, not the "Auto Label" part Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted May 14, 2016 Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 Potential? Maybe so, just that it doesn't work w/o that auto-label triggering it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P1zdat1y Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Hello. I just cant understand how it works now. For now, for example, I have Bittorent 6.1.2. I just checked the "add Label to torrents". Then, I use RSS to auto download TV Shows. So in Rss downloader I just use label for every TV Show with its name and season number. So I just dont understand how to use the new system? Its just something, made not for human, I gues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubJunk07 Posted June 4, 2016 Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 It seems to work for me but only for torrents with folders - if the torrent just contains video.mpg it won't move, but if it contains video/video.mpg it will move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted June 4, 2016 Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 What is the exact setting that you are enabling for it to work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubJunk07 Posted June 4, 2016 Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 I disabled "Use label and directory rules" and then added my things to the "Label-Directory Mapping" section. Maybe it's just using my previous settings though, I haven't tried one that I didn't have before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted June 4, 2016 Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 So, if you do that, what is the behavior? When you select a label in the add-torrent dialog, it automatically selects the folder for you? What is the effect on RSS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubJunk07 Posted June 4, 2016 Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 I don't use RSS for downloads, but yeah, it automatically puts the download into the right folder as it did before, but only if the torrent has a directory in it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chek the option "Append the torrent's label" in Option - Directories 2. When you download torrent and add label to it, the programm adds label as a path to save file.

zone117x Posted July 23, 2016 Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 I've literally been trying to get this feature to work for over a year. I've tried all the possible options: "use label directory rules", enabling the old "append label name" setting still available in the web interface. This feature is completely broken, and other than actually downloading a torrent, its the most important thing I need the client to do.. it really screws up my automated download system using Sonarr. Today I attempted to get it working (probably 4th time this year), and it seemed to work when adding the torrent manually. However, it still doesn't work when Sonarr (or other remote uTorrent clients) add the torrent. It looks as if all these 3rd party client use the web interface to add torrents. Maybe the bug is related to that? Please get this issue fixed. The stuff you guys list in the release notes look much less severe than this bug. I pay for uTorrent pro. The only reason I use it is because all the other Windows clients can't handle the amount of torrents I have seeding. But I'm thinking about getting a linux box to run a client that is capable of doing something as simple as moving a torrent to a directory when its completed...

spon Posted July 25, 2016 Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 I am not able to get labels working correctly either. 3.4.7 and Windows 10. I've been using the WebUI to "append torrent's label", but it is not working anymore. Torrents do have the correct label, but they are not moved into the directory correctly.

rafi Posted July 29, 2016 Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 True, it should be more flexible, since you can set a label (labels) to any path name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not try it out? I think I've seen you or others post this same response to the issue several times now. All these users are not desperately trying to get an old setting to work because they refuse to use new settings.. we simply want to have downloads moved to a dynamic folder when completed. The feature, regardless of using the new or old settings to do it, does not work. Next time before posting "use the new setting", please verify that it works yourself - when both a manually adding torrent and adding a torrent through a remote client (e.i. web interface, Sonarr, sickrage, mobile clients, etc). To reiterate my own findings: it seems like the feature works when manually adding a torrent, but does not work when a torrent is added remotely. And by remotely I mean via the unofficial web interface API. For me that is with both Sonarr and the Transdrone android app. Also I'd just like to state that if you are already manually adding a torrent to the client its only a couple extra clicks to specify the download folder. In my opinion an auto-move feature that only works when manually adding a torrent is almost useless. I bet for most users the only use for this feature is in an automated downloading setup. All of which use the web interface API (which again.. does not work). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
