Hello folks. First sorry for my english. Well I just setup all the arrs, including autobrr and cross-seed. Now I'm trying to automate the deletion of public and already well seeded private torrents (low space). I check several tools but I think I fall in love with tqm, I really like all the control it provide so I really want to understand all the options. The problem is I didnt found any detailed help.
If someone can point me to any web or video article I will be eternally gratefull.
I understand:
- ignore
- pause
- remove (mostly)
I don't:
- Differences and uses of label and tags.
- update: looks like a filter, only apply this tag or label if all conditions are meet.
- "sonarr-imported" where that come from. I know in Rad/Sonarr you can configure the client to change the torrent category after importing so maybe Label == Category but not sure.
- lot other details.
What's my goal:
- Seed public torrent for 3 days but whit a limited upload speed.
- Seed private torrents for at least a month and only delete when the drive space gets low deleting the oldest (if possible). I can manage de deletion manually but I will like at least that tqm manage tagging the already well seeded torrents.
- Permaseed low seeders count torrents.
- Remove not registered on tracker torrents (SeedPool remove single files when a complete season exist, don't know others).
- The most important part, just to learn.
Private trackers (if you need to know):
- Old Toons World
- Milkie
- Hawke-uno
- SeedPool
- Torrentleech
I'm not asking for someone to do my job but if you have a working instance of tqm and can provide some examples I will be very gratefull.
