am508 Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 I usually have a large, poorly seeded download going that take a few weeks to complete with my internet; and while I have other smaller and faster downloads going, I like to limit the global downloads and uploads while browsing/playing games. I was wondering if a feature could be implemented that allows you to let a specific torrent bypass the global cap.For example (in case I it isn't clear what I mean)Downloading one large torrent that averages about 10kbpsDownloading three other smaller torrents that average around 50kbpsMaking a cap for the three smaller torrents of about 20kbps total, but allowing the large torrent to download unlimited. The way I am thinking is a global way, not limiting each small torrent to 20/3 kbps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Force 1 torrent to start and run in scheduler 'limited' mode which the force-started torrent should bypass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
am508 Posted November 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 Doesn't appear to work for me, I always have the larger one on force start anyway. Are there certain settings that need to be changed to allow it to bypass the cap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelittlefire Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 Force Start does not obey the scheduler. What is the status in the main torrent pane/General tab?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 Force Start will not bypass the caps in "Limited" mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 The only thing force starting a torrent does is bypass queueing -- nothing more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
