Wishlist: Trackers Injection from static trackers list #36

Closed wikiped closed 1 year ago

wikiped commented 1 year ago

There is an up-to-date trackers list.

The proposal / idea is to add something like Inject trackers menu item to context menu of Trackers Tab. The list could be chosen / set in settings or as a sub-menu to the above context menu item.

As far as I am aware no other app offers similar functionality so this could a unique feature.

This was a new feature in Transmission 4.0.0

Users can now set "default" trackers that can be used to announce all public torrents.

Not sure if this needs to be added upstream first to make it happen via WebUI.

I am stuck with transmission v.3.0 for the moment so can't check this feature, but it sounds like the list is going to be entered once and will have to be updated manually somehow, not benefiting from the updates maintained at the repo.

I like the idea and it will be implemented soon. Default tracker list will be configurable but it will not update automatically, there is no reliable source for such list and there is no universal way to rank trackers on latency or other metrics.

Most people just use the trackers_best list from https://github.com/ngosang/trackerslist

Yes, that was linked above. It's neither reliable nor universal.

Implemented in v0.7.0
