Download Complete - Popup

Post by rigr »

Hi all,

I just switched from the µtorrent client to the qBittorent one, and I really like it so far.
It's just one feature that I really miss though, and that's the "download complete" popup that I get in µtorrent.
Now I have to check the program all the time, just to see if the torrent is complete, and that can be a bit annoying.

I use Windows 7 btw.

Thanks in advance,

Please, report this as a feature request. (Guest this would need some OS specific code. OR Qt knows something like this if I remember correctly.)

If client can run a script when torrent completes then its no big deal to have a popup and/or sound to play. I do this with rtorrent

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
#
ICON=emblem-default
EXPIRE=5000
MESSEGE="Download Complete"
SOUND="/usr/share/sounds/freedesktop/stereo/complete.oga"
VOL="12000"
##
#
DISPLAY=:0 notify-send -t $EXPIRE -i $ICON " $MESSEGE " "$1" &
paplay --volume=$VOL $SOUND
works with qbittorent as well
