How hard would it be to port this to Harmattan?

Re: [app request] torrent download manager for harmattan =)
 

You coud just use www.torrific.com and download the files from there, just copy the torrent link and paste into torrific, it wont usually take long time for the torrent to finish, its pretty dam fast service, then just download the files to your phone.

there are plenty Open trackers, and most private trackers doesnt allow mobie torrent apps to be used.

ps, if you decide to use this, you need Firefox since the default browser doesnt allow download of avi without some editing of defaults.list and you cant Paste the torrent link into Torrific :mad:

just my few cents :)

Interesting alternative but wouldn't it be easier with transmission? :)

Re: [app request] torrent download manager for harmattan =)
 

yeah of course it would be easier, atho, this also saves your hd space, and you can also stream the files using default browser, look into it, i bet you will like it ;)

and im not joking about hte speed of torrific, see it yourself, when i click initiate (download torrent) its sometimes ready like ASAP :D

upload speed is around 4mb/s from torrific to petandrive (another file host thats pretty usefull, you can stream videos from there etc.

lftp can download torrents.

Re: [app request] torrent download manager for harmattan =)
 

Thanks for the idea, tried it with lftp and it works but there's a problem, the download speed is pretty slow. I get speeds only up to 80kb/s and it's not the tracker or the wlan speed. I tried to download the same torrent on my computer and the speed went up to 2Mb/s, i also ran speed test on my n9 and it showed about 1.7/Mb/s. Any suggestions?

Re: [app request] torrent download manager for harmattan =)
 

Did someone else try it? What are your download speeds?

Re: [app request] torrent download manager for harmattan =)
 

LFTP's great and powerful....
But it's not going to appeal to the mainstream that we want/hope the N9 will appeal to.*
Hopefully there is a re-adaption of Transmission. That would be really sweet.

*the chances of that happening have been almost entirely dashed, but one can still hope.

Re: [app request] torrent download manager for harmattan =)
 

Yeah but still, it's nice that if you really need to download a torrent you can do it. I just don't know what's with the download speed.
