Changing Directory for Pre-Downloaded Torrent Files
Posted: Thu Feb 25, 2010 9:30 pm
Hi all,
I'm a new user to Transmission, and I have a question pertaining to the data storage of torrent files. I have several torrents which I have already downloaded in the past, but I believe the location of the downloaded data moved from its default location, resulting in the local data verification to fail for 100+ of my torrents. For the sake of my ratio on the tracker, I'd like to point these torrents to the location of the actual data, instead of re-downloading all these files only to seed them again. Is there a way to indicate to Transmission torrents where the data is located?
I'm using Transmission 1.75 (9117) on a Dell Inspiron running Ubuntu 9.10. Thank you for any help you can offer!
