Move Completed Downloads?

Post by Spam_Gorgon »

Is there any way, using qBitTorrent, to have it download files to one directory, and then move them to another directory when they're done, while continuing to seed?

Choose "Set Location" from the task list context menu.

Is there any way to get it to do this automatically?

I do not see anything there that will allow me to move the downloaded files to a new directory when the torrent is finished and continue to seed.

I see an option to change where I save files to, and an option to move the .torrent file to a directory upon torrent completion, but no option to move the downloaded files.

It it it worked as it should, the combination of "Save files to location:" and "Keep incomplete torrents in:" along with "[ ] Append the label of the torrent to the save path" would do exactly what you are asking about. However given that it is currently a pending rewrite, the only way that currently works is the manual method.

Has there been any progress on this? How can we automatically move downloads to a NAS when they are completed like utorrent does?
