Downloads directories
Understand what are Downloads paths


Download data structure
Understand download directories structure.
  • Downloading torrent is saved for download and seeding in:
    /share/Rdownload/download/{label}

  • On torrent download completion step, finished torrent data will be *hard-linked, moved or copied (depends on settings) to:
    /share/Rdownload/complete/{label}

  • When torrent download is finished and it's a movie or tv-show, then automatically postprocess downloaded content, detect media content type, make a *hard-link copy into:
    /share/Rdownload/medialibrary/...
    rename directories and file names of this copy, grab artworks and scrap metadata.
*Hard-link method is always recommended.


Downloads are saved in [Rdownload], or [Download], or in [Public] share

Download location
Use hard-links to move finished torrents data into complete directories on the NAS. Moving hard-linked content doesn't affect NAS performance and it's "0-byte copy" of the source data, this mean 1GB torrent stored in 3 locations downloads, complete and medialibrary costs your disk not 3GB, but only 1GB.


Why do I need same torrent in downloads, complete and in medialibrary?
When using private trackers users must follow some rules and seed downloaded data to reach desired ratio. Thats can be diffucult especially when it's needed to organize downloaded data and rename it's directory structure or file names to make it compilant with media collection naming rules. That's why idea is to keep same torrent data in three different locations as "0-byte" copy in:
  • downloads - untouched content, eg. for download and seeding

  • complete - finished content for common usage (hard-link copy recommended)

  • medialibrary - hardlinked ("0-bytes" copy of) movies or tv-shows that are sorted, renamed, with artworks and metadata


What is Media Library?
Media Library is organized structure of downloaded media content which looks good and elegant, compilant with Kodi, Plex and Emby. Automatically postprocess completed movies and tv-shows and make additional library with it, rename its directories, download fanarts, posters, metadata to build elegant-looking compilant with Kodi, Plex, Emby and Windows Explorer collection.

  • Thats how common movie or tv-shows downloads looks like:
    rtorrent-Pro_media_before_filebot.png


  • And that's how it can look like in a Media Library after rtorrent-Pro process it:
    rtorrent-Pro_media_after_filebot.png
