Why don't you add an option to decide whether use the webseed?

Using no webseed is not an option!

No, just kidding :smile_cat:

I wrote those scripts to allow creating torrents for content which is already available on some webservers and its mirrors. Also batch downloading of complete folders becomes more easy.

So we never had the urge to not use webseeds.

As you can see from the commit messages, it's frustrating, the bittorrent libraries are not completely all available for python3, namely bencode. Until we haven't completely finished our automatic build chain of Freifunk Firmware Images, I'm not willing to put much effort into this code.

Are using this software? You could try to leave the webseeds list in the config empty. If it doesn't work, just let me know, I'll have a look then.

^_^ Thx! It works will now, but i found a new problem... μTorrent can only read the first tracker.
