[Bug]: min_seeding_time not working about qbit_manage HOT 25 CLOSED

Thanks to both of you and for your help, @bobokun, on Discord. I finally solved it and thought I'd share. I noticed that the share limits were working for my downloads from private trackers, but not public trackers. I found a Reddit thread and someone asked if Ultra.cc (my seedbox) supports public trackers. Apparently they do not, and they have scripts that will stop seeding from public trackers once they are done downloading. That's why I could never meet the min_seeding_time for public trackers.

Just looking at my "public" share limit torrents, I don't see anything about min_seeding_time for each torrent even though min_seeding_time is set up in my config.

from qbit_manage.

  public:
	priority: 9
	exclude_any_tags:
	  - something
	  - another-thing
	  - again-another-thing
	max_ratio: 1
	min_seeding_time: 60
	max_seeding_time: 70
	resume_torrent_after_change: True
	cleanup: False

you've told qbit_manage to seed for at least 60 seconds and a ratio of 1 OR seed for at least 70 seconds -no bug appears to exist

trace logs indicate this seems to be being applied just fine.

also room to improve the logging an add min seed time,

from qbit_manage.

Wow that's set for 60 seconds and not 60 minutes? I greatly misunderstood, thank you so much.

Yes, adding min_seeding_time to logs would be great.

Thanks again!

Reopening for the logging cc @bobokun

Wow that's set for 60 seconds and not 60 minutes?

No, this should be in minutes, not seconds. I think what @bakerboy448 meant was

you've told qbit_manage to seed for at least 60 minutes and a ratio of 1 OR seed for at least 70 minutes

from qbit_manage.

@bakerboy448

So if it's minutes, then min_seeding_time really isn't working for me.

from qbit_manage.

No it's working accurately.
The values are in second. Thus 60 is 60 seconds
3600 is 1 hour / 60 minutes

from qbit_manage.

Okay, if it's seconds then I think I should be good.

from qbit_manage.

So I changed my config to account for seconds, not minutes, and my public share-limit torrents still aren't seeding. Even the newly added ones since the change.

  public:
    priority: 9
    exclude_any_tags:
      - bunch-of-tags-here
    max_ratio: 1
    min_seeding_time: 3600
    max_seeding_time: 4200
    resume_torrent_after_change: True
    cleanup: False

I've noticed that my torrents from private trackers are all seeding, but those from public trackers aren't. Does that have anything to do with it?

from qbit_manage.

Any chance you could try develop which has slightly improved logging on the comparisons

from qbit_manage.

Sorry, I would definitely do it but I'm not sure how to. I'm running a local install. When I go to the develop branch and select Clone it tells me the URL is https://github.com/StuffAnThings/qbit_manage.git which I don't think points to the develop branch. Unless I'm wrong about that.

from qbit_manage.

You simple pull and checkout the develop branch.

from qbit_manage.

Used the develop branch and copied my config over.

It's hard to tell because in the screenshot you're hiding the torrent name. But I do see min seed time is working, taking this example:

It shows that Min seed time not met: 0:00:14 <= 2 days, 12:00:00. Removing Share Limits so qBittorrent can continue seeding. Is that torrent seeding? If not can you right click the torrent in the webUI and go to Limit Share Ratio and screenshot that? Can you also try highlighting these "completed" torrents and choose resume to see if they start seeding?

from qbit_manage.

Can you also check your qbitorrent settings go to the BitTorrent tab? Screenshot the Seeding Limits section

from qbit_manage.

Thanks for following up.

Oh sorry I didn't mean to hide the torrent names I just thought the tags would suffice. Unfortunately, that torrent was already removed by Radarr (I think).

I was able to highlight those completed torrents and resume them, and they seeded, but then they all went back to completed within less than 5 minutes. Also, if min_seeding_time is working, shouldn't it auto-resume the torrent? "If the torrent has not yet reached this minimum seeding time, it will change the share limits back to no limits and resume the torrent to continue seeding."

from qbit_manage.

Can you right click one of the torrents that are completed and check what the share limits qbittorrent has set on them? Does it match with what's in your qbm config?

from qbit_manage.

I'm not quite sure how to do that -- I right clicked on a torrent, clicked on Limit share ratio and it gave me this:

These are all the choices presented when I right click on a torrent:

Does it matter that I have automatic torrent management turned on? Or does it matter that I was using qBittorrent 4.3.9? I've now upgraded to 4.5.5 to see if that would make a difference.

Also, as an aside, the numbers in the config really are in minutes then. I was told twice that it was seconds, if you scroll above.

from qbit_manage.

Upgraded to qBittorrent 4.5.5 and it made no difference. See the screenshot below this trace log.

Seeding for 3 minutes and not a minimum time of 60 minutes

what's the issue?

also yeah as bobo mentioned, minutes not sconds sorry

from qbit_manage.

I think this is most likely a config issue since if min_seeding_time wasn't working it would be a widespread issue affecting a lot more users. I'm closing this issue, if you need additional support please hop onto the discord as it's easier to debug with you there instead of through Github.

Glad you got it figured out and thanks for sharing!
