Download/Upload settings for torrents

Post by tom.nijns »

I'd like to be able to change some settings for downloading torrents like the maximum down- or uploadspeed, or when to stop seeding.

Anyway i want the option to have more torrents downloading at the same time.
Even if it gives worse performance.

Hallo

Sorry.. LOL = Laughing Out Loud.
Stop seeding: remove the download from the list and it wil not seed.
The removal is manual bij clicking CANCEL.

Of course the "Cancel" button is manual right now, but there are several torrent software out there (for instance Azureus/Vuze) where you can set a "Stop seeding at ratio:", for instance 1.0. This means that the torrent will seed until that ratio is reached, and will then stop.
I think it's a pretty valid request, and shouldn't be very hard to implement either.

I would like to add a request regarding Download/Upload settings:
In the web interface, the ability to control things as "Priority" or perhaps a "Paus"-button would be great! For instance if I want to speed up the download of one torrent, but I don't want to cancel the other 7.
