Clinch Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 I've read the guide but Im unsure of how to get this done. What I want is utorrent to download and seed all new torrents from here on out. I have the filter setup but it is matching torrents already in the rss feed which I dont want to download.I just want it to download new torrents from today on and not whatever was in the rss feed.Is there a way to force all current rss feeds into history?

jewelisheaven Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 Is http://utorrent.com/rsstutorial.php the guide you are referring to?Hmm? You seem to contradict yourself in the post. So forgive me if I misunderstand your intent.RSS rules allow you to set parameters to MATCH or NOT MATCH feed items.When you add a feed, you have the option to name it "NAME|FEED_URL". Afterwards you can set favourites for that feed, or all feeds.These are essentially filters to tell uT which items to download. (NOTE: feeds which do not put the direct link to the .torrent file are not supported. Nor are feeds > .90 RSS afaik)Also, the ability to toggle whether or not you wish to auto-start the RSS items can be found in the RSS pane on 1.8 versions. Previously it can be found under Ctrl-P -> AdvancedThis gives control similar to the Ctrl-P -> Downloads option "don't start the download automatically" for RSS items.As far as not-recognizing <24 hour feed items as new, or "only download items after XX date" i don't think that option exists.Also I'm not sure what effect "forget last matching" would have.Perhaps you can set the filters you want to wait >12 hours" for now, if they are already matching. Then, by the time it's not "new" you can reset it however often you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinch Posted December 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 well im not trying to limit the feed, i actually want to it download everything in it, but because I just added it today I dont want it to download whats in the feed already, just whatever is new.

jewelisheaven Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 Yea I'm not sure that is a specific setting.Have you tried letting it download all current feed items and then not re-settting the downloaded items. After uT downloads it once, it wont download it again automatically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinch Posted December 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 Ok i couldn't find a solution with utorrent so I found another way using Yahoo pipes.http://pipes.yahoo.com if you are interested.You can filter based on anything, so I used pubdates, filtered out all the dates i didn't want, and now I have an rss feed with old stuff gone. yahoo is great.Im tempted to use a download all filter and just create one big rss feed with only what I want but Im not sure if it can filter as well as utorrent for more specific things.

jewelisheaven Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 Wow. Interesting service they're offering. I may have to pullout my yahoo email profile to check it out.I still say after the initial download (you can remove the torrents afterwards) it will work as you want.
