Updated/New "Seed While" Feature

[nathanhaigh]

Firstly I'd like to propose a change to the current "Seed while" feature. At the moment, you can seed while the ratio is below a certain value or you have been seeding for less than a certain amount of time. The ratio here is described as a percentage, whereas everywhere else it's stated as a floating point number, this should be changed to make the GUI more consistent.

OK, now for my feature request:

I'd like the ability to add additional an additional criterion to the "Seed while" feature. For instance, I want to seed if "availability" of the torrent is less than a certain amount. This would help to keep torrents seeding while their availability is low. I'm thinking in the style of iTunes and thunderbird when creating a smart playlist or smart searches respectively. You can add additional criterion and choose from a drop-down box "ratio", "availability", "seeding time" etc then another drop-down box with "less than", "more than", "equal", etc and then a box to enter a value. You would need a logical operator at the start of each criterion. You could end up with seeding criteria such as:

Seed while....

<ratio> is <less than> {1.5}

<OR> <availability> is <less than> {3}

<OR> <seeding time (min)> is <less than> {120}

Cheers,

Nathan

Availability is a lot harder to calculate than the other two because you can't effectively factor in other seeds.

Other advanced seeding rules are previously requested.

You can sorta do it with scrapes, like Vuze does, but eh.

Couldn't you use the availability that's already been calculated/displayed for each file?

Seeds aren't counted while seeding.
