Deleting Trackers permanently

Asked by aqis on 2010-05-25

Greetings,
I have converted from utorrent/windows to a Ubuntu/qtorrent system and it works very well thanks; however>

I have many older torrents and inside these are many different and outdated trackers or unwanted trackers.
In utorrent/bittorrent you can delete or add a tracker and it stays deleted upon every start up.
qtorrent always starts with the original trackers inside the torrent. So everytime I start a new session of qtorrent I have to delete the trackers, which is painful.
This is true also if i download a torrent and it has a multitude of trackers inside it and many of these are now defunct.

Is their a way I can permanently delete these trackers inside the torrent please, else the program seems to work ok for me.

Thankyou

This is a known limitation in libtorrent-rasterbar. I have contacted the author regarding this and I hope we can add this feature in a future release.
