Treat Seeding and Downloading as Separate Actions in Scheduler

by Guest on 2016/06/24 08:50:50 PM    
Hello,

(The following could maybe also be applied to other areas of Tixati where torrents are started and stopped.)

Like others I'm sure, my ISP allows unmetered downloading at night and unmetered uploading 24hrs a day. Because of this, I often restrict the downloading of large files to night hours but would like to continue seeding at all times. The problem is, as far as I know, that Tixati's scheduler only provides the ability to start and stop torrents in their entirety instead of the individual downloading and seeding actions. This means that because I want to download only at night, that seeding is also restricted to night hours when it could be helping others by seeding at all times.

So currently the scheduler only offers two options:

Start
Stop

It would be helpful to me, and to the Torrent community as a whole, if the options were expanded to:

Start
Stop
Start Seeding
Stop Seeding
Start Downloading
Stop Downloading

Currently my scheduler looks something like this:

2:00AM - Start Category
8:00AM - Stop Category

But I'd like it to be:

2:00AM - Start Category
8:00AM - Stop Downloading Category

... or ...

2:00AM - Start Seeding Category
2:00AM - Start Downloading Category
8:00AM - Stop Downloading Category

Having the ability to start/stop downloading and seeding individually would in my case, increase seeding time for some torrents by 18hrs a day!

Thanks
