  • component changed from other to gtkui
  • milestone set to 1.2.0

There is no way to see if 'Move storage' command finished its work in gtkui. Especially when you move storage to other logical volume, it takes quite some time and it would be good to know, when it is done. It could be shown in 'Progress' column with 'Moving' label in progress bar.

I think a better idea would be to have a place in the status bar that says "Currently mMoving xx torrents, approx. xx,x GB left".

How many GB left could be calculated by adding the size of all torrents one wants to move and then looking at disk activity to get an estimation of how much data has been moved so far. This is assuming there is no other significant disk activity on the target disk(s).

+1 on this request.

To expand on this idea, it would be nice to queue these moves and to be able to view/manage such tasks in its own screen...

  • summary changed from Progress bar for "more storage" to Progress bar for "move storage"

I'd go for the label "Moving" in the "Progress" column as well.

Note: I'd like more storage as well, but I adjusted the typo of the ticket summary. :)

As libtorrent does not provide any move_storage progress the best we can do is something like changing the progress bar text for a torrent to 'Moving' until the task is completed.

in 3 years, nobody did anything...

@gymka2

as Cas stated, nothing can be done because deluge does not know anything about the move progress which is being accomplished by libtrorrent.

You could try asking for this feature against libtorrent.

Someone has created a plugin with this feature:  http://forum.deluge-torrent.org/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=40835

I think we should revisit the issue for 1.4.
