Interesting ! I tried integrating transmission for downloading content in a video wall app and it was a bit of a nightmare.

Hopefully this will be better - please have a sane remote API.

One thing that Azeurus did really well, that transmission really did not -

You could can tell azeurus to re-check all the files that are there so it can find out how far it's got.

In Azeurus I used this to reconstruct a large torrent by adding files that I found, then telling it to re-check.

Transmission couldn't even tell if the files the torrent pointed at had been deleted from under it.

Pretty much all torrent clients can recheck the files.

The python API for transmission is pretty simple, I wrote a RSS feed reader that adds new torrents in something like 20 lines of code (not counting my custom rss parser module automagically generated from the schema).

Really? That's odd, that's a pretty standard feature in every client I've tried. I'm not positive, but I'm fairly sure transmission does it too.

Transmission does this with the verify command.
