Set per-torrent speed limits when adding torrent with transmission-remote

Post by fuhimio »

Hello, I'm trying to set per-torrent speed limits when adding torrent with transmission-remote:

Code: Select all

$ transmission-remote --add torrents/download/debian-9.6.0-amd64-netinst.iso.torrent --uplimit 11 --download-dir /storage/
But unfortunately that affects global speed limits instead of the limits for torrent being added. Full console listing is pasted here: http://dpaste.com/1V11J2E

I'm using Transmission 2.92 on Debian 9 (stretch). Could anyone test this on newer versions and confirm the bug? Is there any workaround except calling transmission-remote again after adding the torrent?

After reading the man page I do not think that this is the expected behavior, but please comment if I'm wrong.
-u --uplimit limit
Limit the maximum upload speed to limit kB/s. If current torrent(s) are selected this operates on them. Otherwise, it changes the global setting.

I have just tested Transmission 2.94 on Debian Sid - it behaves the same.
