nu1mlock Posted March 26, 2007 Report Share Posted March 26, 2007 Hello!I've been searching everywhere for a program (or easy script) that can change the announce url of an existing torrent without breaking it. I'm well aware of MakeTorrent, but since I need DHT DISABLED, it doesn't work for me.Also, when trying, Notepad, Wordpad or Notepad++, the torrent gets corrupted, hence they're not either a solution for my problem.So, does someone know if there is a program, or even a good solution for my problem? DHT needs to be disabled. Well, everything has to be as it's original state, but the announce url.Thanks in advance!nu1mlock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted March 26, 2007 Report Share Posted March 26, 2007 There are several torrent editors out there that will change announce urls in a .torrent file without affecting anything else.You could probably write something in PHP as well, although BitTornado's btreannounce.py (a python script included in the source package) might be more your speed.

nu1mlock Posted March 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2007 Thanks for your answer!I've started looking into the btreannounce.py. Thanks!While I do this, I still would like something else to use in the meantime. You said there was several applications that could edit the announce url without touching anything else - could you name some of them?Thanks in advance!nu1mlock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted March 26, 2007 Report Share Posted March 26, 2007 I had some utilities I had written for multitracker announce handling that worked fairly well.I may be able to customize one of them for you when my main computer gets back up.

nu1mlock Posted April 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 Actually, DreadWingKnight, I'd really need that utility you had. I haven't found any other way, even though me and a friend has tried a lot.You said that there was several torrent editors out that that could change the announce url without touching anything else - which are they?nu1mlock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 BitTornado's btreannounce.py (python script - source package) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nu1mlock Posted April 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 Thanks! We are aware of that script, but actually, we're not really sure what we should do to make it edit the announce url together with our code.I'm sure we could get it to work, but we don't really know where to start.nu1mlock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
