Hello again!
Time to release something!
This is the very first pre-ultra-buggy-alpha version of the plugin.
It doesn't do much... Things you can do:
- Monitor your donwloads on uTorrent or Deluge;
- Pause, Start and Stop torrents;
- Search and download torrents from ThePirateBay and KickAssTorrents;
I've not created the Google Code project yet, as I still need to clean some code...
After that, I hope that the code/interfaces will be more stable, so I can release some info on how to add support to your favorite search engine or torrent back end.
Feedback/suggestions will be more than welcome!
Instructions:
- Put the files inside Windows in your pluginsWindows folder;
- Put the files inside Skin into your Skin folder (the included files works fine with Blue3Wide. It also works with StreamedMP, but the background is black, with no image).
Enjoy!

Hi all!
After being using MediaPortal since 2009 I thought it was time to contribute a little.
In the beginning I used the great MyTorrents (https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/mediaportal-plugins-47/mytorrents-v0-69-3-a-56482/).
But a few months ago I changed my setup here and installed a NAS running Ubuntu Server with Deluge torrent client.
Since then I've been missing monitoring and searching for torrents from within MediaPortal.
Then, a couple of weeks ago I found a project called Transdroid (transdroid - Project Hosting on Google Code) and liked the idea of one single UI supporting several torrent clients as well as different search sites.
So I started to make my own torrent plugin, using also some code from MyTorrents project.
The plugin is in a very early stage.
Things that are working right now:
- monitor torrents from uTorrent (even with webui.token_auth enabled);
- monitor torrents from Deluge;
I'm using the idea from SubtitleDownloader, so adding support to new torrent clients should be relatively easy (just create a new DLL implementing one interface. After putting the DLL on one specific folder, it should work).
I'm thinking of using this idea for torrent search too.
My code is still too messy, but I'm planning to create a new project on Google Code for issues, patches, etc.
I'd like to hear thoughts, comments, ideas, skin mock-ups, etc, etc, etc.
