Rtorrent: Alternative default trackers

Created on 31 Aug 2015  路  4Comments  路  Source: rakshasa/rtorrent

Hi.

Every time when I add a new torrent from magnet link, the rtorrent does nothing (Could not connect to trackers).

When I add new tracker manually (ctrl+x and d.tracker.insert="10","udp://9.rarbg.com:2710/announce"), it works.

Here is my config:

session=/home/bystrousak/.rtorrentsession
directory = /home/bystrousak/torrents
encryption = allow_incoming,try_outgoing,enable_retry
use_udp_trackers = yes
dht = auto
dht_port = 6881
peer_exchange = yes
port_range = 49164-49164

Is it possible to somehow specify, that rtorrent should add this tracker to every new item automatically?

Resurrecting an ancient thread but I figured this out so I am sharing. Every time a new torrent is added this will add the following tracker to it.

method.set_key=event.download.inserted_new,add_all_trackers001,"d.tracker.insert=\"32\",\"udp://9.rarbg.com:2710/announce\""

You can add more than one too...

method.set_key=event.download.inserted_new,add_all_trackers015,"d.tracker.insert=\"32\",\"http://thetracker.org:80/announce\"" method.set_key=event.download.inserted_new,add_all_trackers016,"d.tracker.insert=\"32\",\"http://torrentsmd.com:8080/announce\"" method.set_key=event.download.inserted_new,add_all_trackers017,"d.tracker.insert=\"32\",\"http://tracker.bittor.pw:1337/announce\""

All the load commands take additional commands for the new item, i.e. add it to your watch schedule(s).

I weren't able to figure how to do that.

Using pyroscope idea, you can do something like this (I haven't tried it out it should work):

method.insert = d.add_tracker, simple|private, "d.tracker.insert=\"10\",\"udp://9.rarbg.com:2710/announce\""
schedule = watch_dir_1,  5, 10, "load.start=/home/bystrousak/watchdir,\"d.add_tracker=\""

You can create an independent watch dir for only the magnet links.
