chain torrents together

[geneon]

if one wants to download different things but not all at the same time. say like a movie and a game. is there a way to make it download the game and then the movie right after download of the game has completed?

i noticed that when you right click and go to properties then under the advanced tab there is a section that reads:

"

-Run Program-

Run this program when the download finishes

[ drop down box [V]] [...]

You can use these commands:

%F - Name of downloaded file (for single torrents)

%D - Directory where files are saved

%N - Title of torrent

"

tried to play with the %N but couldn't figure it out.

if anyone could assist it would be appreciated

You're wasting your time looking at the "start a program when the torrent finishes" setting. There's other, easier systems in place to do what you want.

Load both torrents.

Set the numbers in the # column so that they're in the order you want to download them in (use the up and down arrows in the toolbar to do this).

In preferences - queueing, set the max number of downloads to 1 and the number of active tasks to 1 or 2.
