Hi,
I've just came across rTorrent and bought it - I must say, it really is everything that I ever dreamed of for a torrent client.
Anyway, I am trying to migrate my existing torrents and their respective data from Download Station, and after playing with the process, I found that I could do it as such:
1) Download existing torrent file from Download Station
2) Remove torrent (keeping data) from Download Station
3) Move old data to rtorrent/downloads/tv (for example, for a TV episode)
4) Upload torrent file back to rtorrent/watch/tv
5) This will trigger torrent addition in rTorrent and will re-check files, so there won't be re-download as files are already there
6) When re-check is complete, this does not trigger the "Finished" event, only straight to Seeding
I think because of #6 above, AutoMove does not get triggered. (AutoMoves works if I use a new torrent which I do not already have the data files and triggers the Finished event)
Is there a way to manually trigger the Finished event? Or should I just make a bash script to do hard link to completed folder for those which I am importing? I think this step is important or else Media Library will not get triggered...
Also, if any of you have a better way to migrate from Download Station, please let me know too.. thanks!
Thank you!
