Override torrent folder upon download?
Posted: Wed Jul 11, 2012 9:07 pm
Hello,
Is there a way (in any client -- CLI, GTK, web or RPC) to tell Transmission to ignore any top-level folder contained in the torrent and put it in a folder of one's choice?
eg:
Torrent contains:
GutenbergBible/1.txt
GutenbergBible/2.txt (etc)
But I want this folder (which is in the torrent) to be named Bible/, so the results would be
Bible/1.txt
Bible/2.txt
Is this possible? I looked through the code briefly but the RPC API docs were a little thin. I don't know if tr_torrentSetLocation() is anything close to what I want or not. (I'd prefer not to write a patch myself, but if this feature doesn't exist yet...)
