Create New Torrent - Multiple Trackers?


bgmnt

Recommended Posts

With 1.6, when creating a new torrent, if I want to use multiple trackers...

is there some delimiter I should use between each tracker?

Could not find any documentation on this. Is there a wiki we can put the answer in?

I did read in this forum that you need a full blank line between each line listing a tracker.

If this is true, I daresay it is not intuitive.

And I accidentally got this message from a web site, which seems a decent list of possible public trackers. I guess using just 3 or 4 is plenty?

Invalid announce url! must have one of the following announce url's:

<Moderator edit - we don't need that many trackers posted>

Thanks! Its easy when you know how! I wonder if you or anyone recommends using say, 3 tiers, each with one primary and one backup tracker?

If anyone is looking for trackers to use, people suggest looking through this: http://thebeehive.info/p/tlist.htm

I found that http://rebeltorrent.net/announce.php was unhappy with being a backup, though it did dump out a list of several dozen trackers. Another way to look for trackers is just to get the properties of other torrents you're downloading. Really though, thebeehive is probably the best way.
