mishkin Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 Okay I have a script wget-ing torrent files from ircI have both the watch/autoload in utorrent and the script's save location set to Z:\home\mishkin\downloads\TorrentFiles\I manually loaded one of these torrents (which is around 15KB) and it loads and downloads fine so the torrents arn't truncated or anything like that.Then I downloaded a torrent file using iceweasle (firefox) to the desktop and cut and pasted it into my TorrentFiles dir, utorrent successfully loaded and started the torrent file.But when said script saves a torrent file to my TorrentFiles dir it doesn't / won't load in utorrent, it seems like it's not detecting the downloadAny ideas?? quite fustratingedit: utorrent ver = 1.8.1, wget ver = 1.10.2, wine ver= 0.9.25 Distro = Debian stable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 More than likely, utorrent is loading it when it's incomplete. It won't load it again after that.You could setup your script to save it as a .tmp file and rename to .torrent when done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firon Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 That's a script for rtorrent users. Why even bother? Just use RSS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mishkin Posted October 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 it was working fine for a bit... now it's not\my problem was I was running irssi as root and not mishkinutorrent is renameing the file to include .loaded on the end and fking up the script... might be able to fix itand yeah i know your sopost to be using rtorrent but there shouldn't be any reason utorrent can't do itoh and comon man it's sct... rss is wayyyy too slow to jump on torrents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 Oh please, a 5 minute delay at most isn't that bad (rss.update_interval). And it's being renamed to .loaded because it's loading it and failing to load. It's loading the .torrent when incomplete. You have to adjust the script to download the file to a non-torrent extension and rename when done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
