View contents of a torrent when selected

Open valdotdev opened this issue 8 years ago • 8 comments

Add the ability to view the contents of a torrent in the list especially if it contains multiple files. Usually a pane at the bottom would appear listing those.

And I'm not sure if this needs a separate issue but I guess this should also come with headers such as the ability to set bandwidth/download priority, progress, and file size much like with uT and qBit.

"Your program sucks. It doesn't..." Ok, I stole that from the FAQ.
In addition to valdotdev's comment, it would be extremely helpful if you could not only see the individual files, but tell it whether to download or skip them as well. Case in point, I have a 1TB Torrent I am downloading (mostly for seeding purposes) but I don't have the space for that on my seedbox, so I have to tell it not to get all of the files. You program is super fast, works amazing, but is missing this feature so I have to go back to my seedbox's clunky/slow URL interface. Thanks! 👍

I have some time on my hands so i could possibly implement this feature. With all clients supporting this feature it's going to a pretty substantial implementation tough. But you're right. It would be cool 👍

It would be cool indeed. The fact that you even made what you have created is a great start for me. I can use "Transdrone" on android to do a lot, but when I am on my PC I don't want to go from a 27" screen to a tiny phone just to make some torrent adjust. [😊]

Thanks for what you've made so far!

@Tympanix go at a pace that suits/works with you best! 👍 Keep up the great work! 😄

Would love to see this implemented. It would add so much value to the app, I think it could become the de facto remote client.

Hi! Do still plan to add this feature?

Yes @su30 it is planned but I do not have time/resources to implement it at the moment considering we are now up at supporting 6 clients which would mean 6 times the work. I would like to see this one day as well though.

I'm just here to show my support for this feature and possible updates, as when this feature goes live I'll probably switch to this client.
