yourservice Posted November 19, 2010 Report Posted November 19, 2010 Yes, moving uTorrent to another machine is no problem anymore, switched to more pc's than using different brands of razorbladesBUT, now I want to move 1800 torrents on one machine to a new PC. AND I want to move almost 4000 torrents of another PC to that same new PC.Is it possible to combine these two settings.dat / resume.dat files? Don't want to loose all dl/ul info etc... First machine is already "over" to the new one but now the second one.Anyone?
Switeck Posted November 19, 2010 Report Posted November 19, 2010 Get Ultima's Bencode editor and hack together the 2 resume.dat files.MAKE BACKUPS of the .dat files FIRST!That editor can also edit where all the torrents are located, so you don't have to do force rechecks on everything.
moogly Posted November 19, 2010 Report Posted November 19, 2010 Use BEncode Editor: http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=31306You can merge resume.dat and change the path (drive letters etc) if necessary.(Make backup before editing files)
yourservice Posted November 19, 2010 Author Report Posted November 19, 2010 Has this nothing to do with settings.dat?
Switeck Posted November 19, 2010 Report Posted November 19, 2010 If you're just wanting old torrents to resume, that has nothing to do with settings.dat.settings.dat mostly concerns uTorrent's speed settings.
yourservice Posted November 19, 2010 Author Report Posted November 19, 2010 I have 4000 torrents on one pc and want to add another 1800 from another pc. Don't want to loose any dl/ul info, that's all.Will try now
PunkMeUp Posted November 19, 2010 Report Posted November 19, 2010 Use BEncode Editor: http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=31306You can merge resume.dat and change the path (drive letters etc) if necessary.(Make backup before editing files)There is no option in the BEncode editor to import or join/merge/concatenate two files. Am I missing something?
yourservice Posted November 19, 2010 Author Report Posted November 19, 2010 Item, Merge with... ?Using the latest 64 bits 7.1.0 version of BENcode.
PunkMeUp Posted November 19, 2010 Report Posted November 19, 2010 LOL you're quick. I just came back to edit and say I had the previous 0.6 version. I saw in the release notes that merging was a new feature and just upgraded. Silly me I wish I had checked last night for a new version when I was attempting this. To be honest I did not think this was a continuing project.. I had downloaded it before from an outside link.
yourservice Posted November 19, 2010 Author Report Posted November 19, 2010 YES, it seems to work, just got to copy all info now but it looks ok.
PunkMeUp Posted November 19, 2010 Report Posted November 19, 2010 Yes, absolutely, it worked perfectly!I moved the .torrent files from one appdata/uTorrent to the other, moved the files into the 2nd computer and edited the resume.dat files to point to the correct directory structure on the new computer.. then merged it into the existing one and it all worked perfectly.
