Torrent interface?

[RobertBasil]

Just installed Boxee 2 days ago and I love it.

I'm not a new torrent user, but I can't for the life of me find the interface to the built in rtorrent on any of the menu's. Where is it?

I looked through the Wiki and Forums with no luck.

Thanks!

Hi RobertBasil

you can download classic movies/comedies etc via the boxee application by selecting video>Internet Video>Video Downloads select a category them a click a content and select "Download" button .

After you have started downloading the file you then can select "Downloads" from the Main menu and view the status of your file.

Another option is boxee is constantly "watching" a folder called torrent under your "UserData" folder (~/Boxee/UserData/Torrent) - whenever a torrent file is added to that folder boxee will automatically start to download it. you can "drop" files there and boxee will get them.

enjoy ..

Marcel,

What directory are the files from the torrent downloaded to?

Any way to specify where the files are downloaded to that I access via a torrent download?

Thanks!

hi RobertBasil

the files are moved to ~/Downloads/Boxee/ after download is completed.

Marcel, isn't the Torrent folder in: ~/Library/Application Support/BOXEE/UserData/Torrents ???
