I'm running rtorrent 0.8.6/0.12.6 with the rtorrent.rc below. I have watch directories set up and all the torrents picked up from the watch directory will automatically resume after a few seconds if I try to pause them. This is not a problem with manually added torrents. Everybody that uses rtorrent uses watch directories why should mine be a problem?
View 1 RepliesI am running the latest kubuntu and just lately I have been having a problem with the hard drive.When I am running a program such as Thunderbird, XSane, or GIMP and I ask for the program to access the hard drive to get or write a file, the system will just sit there for about 20 or 30 seconds before it will do anything. Once it has accessed the hard drive from within a program then it is OK for a while. A bit later and the behaviour will recur.I ran smartctl as I saw in another thread that this could show problems and the output from that seemed to show that all was fairly normal.

It happens with any video player and any type of file. It even occurs in a live stream on a web browser.

I have an old Hauppauge card of some kind that I use to pull in my Dish Network stream to my PC in my office. I use mplayer or sometimes VLC to view it, but with the World Cup coming up I anticipate the need to pause Live TV or replay certain situations. What's is the best lightweight solution to accomplish this? Do I need MythTV, Xine, Freevo?

View 9 Replies View RelatedFirst time trying anything like this. I'm running a Abit NF7 with a silicon image 3112 that's support was broken in 2.6.35. I get a kernel panic when VFS can't find the root partition, I can't remember the exact line (can't log it, root isn't mounted yet) but it says something like sata1: link down (sstatus 0 scontrol 0). I think there might be a more telling error message before, but it flies by too fast to see or capture with my camera video recorder.
There's a patch that reverts back to when there was a delay in /drivers/ata/libata-sff.c in the function ata_sff_tf_load, by calling ata_wait_idle(ap) which fixes the issue for some people but not my system. I don't know anything about what I'm doing, but I thought I'd go through and add printk's in each function in sata_sil and see how far the device was initialized. I did this but they all happen early in the boot that flies by. Is there any way to add a pause like the "more" command? [URL]
Play a song in Amarok and then press the space bar to pause. Press the space bar again to resume and Amarok starts playing again with the status bar moving and the timer counting down, but no sound. If I move to the next song, sound starts working again. Or if I double click on a different song, sound works. If I use the xine backend, the problem goes away. I'm using Amarok-2.4 and KDE 4.6.1.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been using rTorrent for a good two years now, and it's been running smoothly until about 6 months ago when random crashes and freezes would occur, between once per day and once per week. (I think it freezes if I run in screen, and crashes if I run it directly.) I've updated both rtorrent and libtorrent, updated cURL, and searched the internet near and far for a solution. I finally got this output (pastebin) after a crash today. I'm not sure how far up it goes, mainly because I'm not sure how I can scroll up the terminal window, and syslog doesn't seem to be of any help. Bottom line, I have no idea what rtorrent/libtorrent are doing, and random crashes are becoming very frustrating. For what it's worth I have a very large library (2000+) of shared files. Using version 9.04

View 6 Replies View RelatedI know this thread rumours around for some time now and it is usually not a good idea to bump it to the head, but my problem is quite similar. I have set up the script, it is run and the screen starts. But rtorrent won't start. It starts only if I run the /etc/init.d/rtorrent start manually. The init script is from here, more or less the official version. Does anyone know why a app don't start with init.d? A big problem, of course, is that there are no logs to examine why it fails in the first place. It could be a simple dependency problem, but as it starts with prio 99, even this should be fine.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've been trying to get the XML RPC interface on rTorrent working for some time now, without success. I'm running Debian 5.0 'Lenny' (stable) i386 on a Intel Atom, and need to let an external application communicate with rTorrent via XML RPC.
I've hand compiled the XML RPC C (1.06) libraries and tried the default packaged version for Lenny, and tried almost all possible combinations of the libtorrent10/libtorrent11 libraries and the rtorrent 0.7.9 through to the latest 0.8.x release. As far as I can see the compilation of both the XML RPC libraries and libtorrent work flawlessly (using no special parameters for the 'configure' scripts). I've compiled rTorrent with the --with-xmlrpc-c syntax, which is also accepted, and it compiles flawlessly.

I've set up rtorrent to move my complete downloads. But i want it to move it to a custom subdirectory according to the file.
For example.
Downloaded. i movie clip and rtorrent moves it to /media/store/eps/ but i want it to automatically move it to check the files name and put it in the right subdir.
If the file is called "Series-1" i want rtorrent to put it the subdir "Series-1" in /media/store/eps/ but if it's called "Series-2" i want rtorrent to move it to the subdir "Series-2"
All this is because my XBMC setup wont add the files to the library if i dont add as a "one-series-only"-folder.
I use Ubuntu 10.04 server as a base for my media center, with rtorrent as my download program. I've had to move into a smaller place where I don't have direct control over the network, and where we have a vanishingly poor DSL connection. When I start up rtorrent, every computer on the network starts having dramatic slowdowns of internet speed, even when both my downloads and uploads are throttled to 1KBps, which is as low as rtorrent will go. Unfortunately, as I said, I don't have direct access to the router. The IT guy says my media center "is sending requests to all the computers on the network like crazy". How he knows that, I don't know, nor do I know exactly what he means.
But it is only when I have rtorrent running, even when it's only running 1k each way. It was my intention to test whether or not running utorrent on my Windows box had the same effect, but it's telling me "an attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions" on all trackers, which I've also been unable to resolve. It may or may not be symptomatic of the same issue, but the UI of rtorrent is painfully slow. As in, I push the down arrow, go make myself a sandwich and watch some telly, and maybe when I'm done it's selected the next torrent. I used to use Transmission, but it used more resources and interfered with watching shows.
i am trying to install libtorrent and rtorrent from source packages. however while configuring i get this:

i'm having hard times trying to get rtorrent working on two CentOS boxes (one is 5.2 and the other 5.3, both x86_64)
i'm using rtorrent RPMs provided from rpmforge
they install fine, starts fine ... but there's simply absolutely no traffic at all !!! I'm sure ISPs are not blocking torrent (they can be shapping, but blocking i'm pretty sure they arent). And when i say there's no traffic, i mean rtorrent cant even download the torrent file when i inform the [URL] from inside rtorrent. It stays there on 0% and there's no download.
if i download the file from the console, with wget for example, i can download it successfully.
i have already tcpdumped the machine and i can confirm rtorrent is not even generating any kind of traffic. NOTHING.
do anyone got rtorrent from rpmforge working fine on CentOS 5.2 and 5.3 x86_64 boxes ?
it should be simply .... at least it was on Fedora 8 and 9 that i used before start using CentOS ...

I am running Lenny, but I wanted to use a newer version of rtorrent, so I am running it via schroot. I have an init.d script from the rtorrent website that would automatically start rtorrent on boot, but now I am running rtorrent through schroot, it doesn't work anymore.I believe it may be something in my rc.# folders. I seem to remember adding a command to end all schroot sessions when shutting down the ompur, and I was thinking that it might be interfering with rtorrent starting correctly.Any tips on how I troubleshoot this?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a CentOS 5.5 server running rTorrent + ruTorrent installed according to this guide: [URL]
Up until now it worked perfectly. But when following this guide for another projekt: [URL] it asked me to do yum -y update and reboot. Alot of packages were updated. Now it won't work anymore.
ruTorrent says:
"Torrent list not yet available, connection to rtorrent not established"
and
"Bad link to rTorrent. Check if it is really running. Check $scgi_port and $scgi_host settings in config.php and scgi_port in rTorrent configuration file."

"Could not read resource file: ~/.rtorrent.rc"
The rtorrent process is running. scgi_port/host are correct.
I am running rtorrent on a remote server mainly for seeding torrents. However, I am also using it to download new media.
I wish to share the downloaded torrent media on the web server. This works great for torrents that have finished downloading, however, for torrents that are in the process of downloading, such as large multi-GiB torrents which have slow seeders or no seeders, this creates an issue.
The problem is that I have set the rtorrent default download directory to be visible on the web server. Which is what I want, so that people can get the downloaded media via a web server. Then, when I drop a new torrent into the directory that rtorrent watches, it will start downloading the media to the web servers visible directory. When it finishes the download, then it works the way that I want. So that the media is available both as a web download and also as a torrent download.
The issue is that when a download is in progress, media that is available on the web server is incomplete.
I can manually close a torrent and manually move the media to a different location, then manually tell rtorrent to use the new location for the torrrent (^o)... but that is doing it manually... and if I need to do this with a large number of torrents, it takes a very long time.
I want to automate that so that I don't have to mess with it at all. A lot of other software such as utorrent and such can do this automatically, but it seems that feature is missing from rtorrent.
rtorrent does offer a scripting function in it's config file that can start a script on completion of a torrent file, however, I have not been able to figure out how to automaticaly stop a torrent seed, move the torrent media to a different location and then tell rtorrent the file is in the new location, then start up the torrent again. Moving a torrents associated media to a new location also initiates a hash check when the torrent is started.
I am not going to use different software. Since rtorrent is shell based and uses curses, it doesn't require GUI features. That saves something like 150 megs of memory for disk caching, etc. rtorrent kicks MUCH ass for this purpose and it uses a tiny amount of system resources.
I use screen with rtorrent so that it will run without having to be logged into the system.
I also need to limit the bandwidth on Apache so that people can download with the web if they absolutely must, but I would prefer that they used the torrent files. So, I would like to slow down their downloads quite a bit so that more bandwidth is used with rtorrent.
As with most Linux issues, there is more than one way to do something. The problem is, I can't even figure out one of those ways right now.
After the last batch of upgrades, rtorrent spits the following error:
Code:

What should I do to install it?
I spent most of the day yesterday trying to make this work and haven't gotten really anywhere with it. Building from source quietly failed although it built without error and I got checkinstall to pack it up it didn't actually work.So I rolled back to the repository version of rtorrent.As I understand it, the things I need to do are (I am thwarted at every step):create user with --disabled-password optioncreating the user is no problem except they seem to have no shell, and running any command while su'd as that user throws an error like Code: Cannot open your terminal '/dev/pts/1' - please check.
I found somewhere that changing the permissions on /dev/pts/N solves this problem however N can change after a reboot, or probably following other events so that's likely not the right fix.create init script to run rtorrent as user in previous stepI found an example that seems like it works but I wont know for sure until I get the prior step worked out fully.

Due certain torrent sites I'm visiting I was forced to upgrade to rtorrent 0.7.9, which isn't avaiable through F8 repositories so I had to compile it myself. It went fairly smooth and I've been using it now for couple of months with no problems whatsoever.
However, recently, it started crashing on me, at the start, throwing out following message:

I have no clue what this is. I can assure you that I haven't altered anything on my system after I compiled the client.
Eventually, I am able to start the program, after an x-amount of tries.
I even tried to delete my session directory once. It seems to have helped at one occasion, but several days later, I was in the same trouble.
