transmission
I have added a couple of torrent files to Transmission BitTorrent Client to be downloaded.
I have a limited internet speed so I can't start all of them in a single go; so I have to peep in after every 30 minutes or so to start downloading other file(added to the client).
I don't want to peep in 30 minutes; looking for a way to schedule the downloads (i.e when one download completes other files can start automatically) without manual intervention.
In 12.04 and 13.04, deluge does include x-scheme-handler/magnet=deluge.desktop;
in the desktop file. In my case, transmission was still opening magnet links. I had to tell gvfs-open preferring deluge with:
gvfs-mime --set x-scheme-handler/magnet deluge.desktop
gvfs-mime was deprecated and 'gio mime' used instead:
gio mime x-scheme-handler/magnet deluge.desktop
If you are using a router, make sure that the port used by Transmission for incoming connections is opened in your router (NAT port forwarding). As the other clients are faster, I suspect that they use a port that is already opened in your router.
In Transmission go to Edit > Preferences > Network and set the same port as in the other clients, and disable "Pick a random port every time Transmission is started". You can use the "Test Port" to see whether the chosen port is open.
It's also possible that your router is configured to accept UPnP or NAT-PMP port forwarding requests. If that is the case, you could enable the "Use UPnP or NAT-PMP port forwarding from my router" checkbox (instead of setting the port and opening it in the router manually).
