infidel Posted January 2, 2006 Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 As my other feature request thread was closed prematurely, I will follow up here:idle.newbie and Firon:The "Update Tracker" option on the right-click menu doesn't work on stopped torrents, at least as of 1.3.1 build 389 (the latest beta).As I said, it would be nice if this a method was also enabled for STOPPED TORRENTS for MANUAL tracker queue scraping. It works great for running torrents, as idle.newbie stated. I am aware of the # column and how to use it, but it doesn't work well for the purpose I clearly delineated in my original post.However, as this is antagonistic now from the quick scan, lack of actual testing, and summary thread closure, likely this useful feature won't be implemented.Great client anyway,Infi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted January 2, 2006 Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 It DOES work for stopped torrents. Well, at least on mine. Perhaps you haven't turned this on.bt.scrape_stopped This enables/disables scraping the tracker for torrents that have been stopped (not queued).http://www.utorrent.com/faq.php#What_do_all_those_settings_in_Advanced_Options_do.3F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firon Posted January 2, 2006 Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 It used to be, but it was turned off because it was decided that it's best to have off, since for 99% of the users it serves no useful function, nor does it influence the queue in any way. Plus, it saves tracker bandwidth since most people don't even look at their client / run it while sleeping / don't care about stopped scrapes. For the rest, they can turn it on.

ul Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 What's the scrape interval on stopped/paused torrents? If it is long enough (1 hour+) I hope tracker admins don't mind if I turn it on.(Sure wish there was a seeding rank with auto-start for desperate torrents so I could see which needs seeding the most. As it is now we have to enable bt.scrape_stopped and calculate the S:L ratio in our heads ... unless I'm wrong and there's another way?)

Firon Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 The scrape interval is also determined by the tracker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
