I've discovered that this works perfectly.
I am able to mount a crypt volume that is connected to mega.
Mega runs in Webdav on ubuntu.
This is the ideal set up for small torrents that are less than 15 GB.
For larger files, it just consumes all space on my VPS.
Is there any way in which, I can get rclone to write files as they are written by qbittorrent ?
I am using VFS full for this.
Thanks
Nope. This is the worst thing you can do - set rclone mount as a torrent program destination. Any byte in your file changes, rclone will start uploading all file from the beginning. It is not rclone limitation but how most cloud storage works.
Most torrent programs allow you to move finished download to another folder. This is the best approach.
Understood, but if the torrent is made up of hundreds of smaller files, then this should not happen.
can ignoring changes in the metadata of the files here help ?
Let's assume that once a file has been downloaded, there will be no changes to it. It might be read if the torrent is seeding from that portion of it.
IMO it is not good idea but feel free to experiment. Maybe other users more familiar with "torrenting" and rclone mount can give you better advice.
resolved this by adding --cache-dir and linking it to a drive that has a ton of space.
Adding this here for anyone else that might read this.
Thank you Kapitainsky
