[feature request] Stop torrents after running time
It would be great if you can choose between "Stop seeding if idle for (min):" and "Stop seeding after running time (min):". The "Running time" info is already in the Inspector so an additional option below "Stop seeding if idle for (min):" should not be so difficult to add probably. Thoughts?
This feature has already been requested 6 years ago. There's a long running ticket about it on trac. It has a patch, but it's missing api endpoints and a representation in the UI.
I'm running on that patch for a long time now, but it would be really nice if the implementation could be finished and made available to regular users. I get asked about this almost on a weekly basis. This feature really is in high demand.
...but it's missing api endpoints and a representation in the UI...
Additionally, the patch on trac is not versatile. It is session wide only to encompass every seeding torrent, and it doesn't take into account if torrents have been stopped for a period of time then restarted.
Any progress on this?
I was really excited when @mikedld said that this was easy to implement and it appeared to me that this was finally happening.
I've been waiting for this feature for a very long time, even tried to implement it myself (and failed) with 0 Objective-C knowledge. I really hope this doesn't take another 7 years.
Yes pls. So many "stalled" downloads that are complete "as far as I care about (ie: the files are intact on my side") just sitting there keeping other processes from moving on because no one is downloading bits from my side and likely never will. I often have to go in to an individual torrent and drop the seeding % so that it will finish and close up shop as expected.
/signed. I want to say "Seed all torrents until ratio hits X or they have been seeding for Y days (regardless of activity)" and I think having a user-friendly way to implement this would be fantastic.
This is really sad... would help some money motivation? I'm willing to pay even 40$ for this, to have... is it really so hard?
@dethmourne actaully, I would like to have option do meet both criteria (seed AND time) ;)

+1 for this exact functionality.
Adding a +1 to this 10 year old request. This is the only feature missing from Transmission that makes me end up using a different client.
This, +1
Many (most?) private trackers have a minimum seed time, something like 72 hours. It would be nice to have a way to set this in transmission.
Truly a must have. Would love to see it coming to transmission. Thanks to anyone who can make it happen.
Just wanted to add my support for this feature... This would make transmission the perfect client for my set up.

I did not reference this forum topic then, but it is still somewhat scriptable NOW as demonstrated in the "Unrar and cleanup script".
