Transmission-Qt - Features?

[michaels]

I've been running uTorrent for some time now as I've yet to find anything that compares.

I need these things:

1) Scheduler
2) RSS feed download
3) run as a service
4) Stop file sharing after download completes (closed network usage).

Does Transmission-Qt do the above?

Thanks...

1) Scheduler

Depends on what it should schedule. There's a way to set [automatic] speed limitation (a.k.a. turtle mode) during specific week days. See Edit menu -> Preferences dialog -> Speed tab -> Alternative Speed Limits group.

2) RSS feed download

Search this forum for solutions. Generally you wuold use something like FlexGet.

3) run as a service

Select daemon in installation choices, it runs as service and is accessible with web UI, Qt client and transmission-remote.

4) Stop file sharing after download completes (closed network usage).

You could set seed ratio limit and seed idle limit, globally and per-torrent. See Edit menu -> Preferences dialog -> Seeding tab -> Limits group and Torrent menu -> Properties dialog -> Options tab -> Seeding Limits group.
