    This document provides an example configuration for using uTorrent with FlexGet to download torrents. It describes setting up scheduled tasks in Windows 7 to run FlexGet periodically in the background and add new torrents to a uTorrent session without needing to manually download them. The tasks can be configured to run when the user is logged in to bring up the uTorrent GUI each time, or run whether the user is logged on to use uTorrent in a background service mode.

    uTorrent example
    Notice
    This recipe should not be needed now that there is a native utorrent (/Plugins/utorrent) plugin.

    This is an example how to use uTorrent with exget and take advantage of dynamic folders at Windows 7.
    This is not necessary the right and de nitive way to con gure uTorrent, but it’s a working example. Guide
    assumes torrents are fetched via RSS and user wants to do RSS fetching periodically without need for
    manual downloading.

    FlexGet con guration


    Let’s start with con g:

    # You must tell FlexGet to download the torrent file to some directory, so that it c
    an be passed to uTorrent
    download: C:\torrents

    # Download path defined here can be used later as {{ut_path}} variable


    set:
    ut_path: C:\Movies

    ## Output files to utorrent


    # /DIRECTORY takes two arguments:
    # 1. Save path (now set as {{ut_path}} ). pathscrub to delete unacceptable chara
    cters.
    # 2. Torrent file path ( set as {{output}} ). pathscrub done by default.
    # Detailed description: http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=53988&p=1
    exec: C:\Progam Files\uTorrent.exe /DIRECTORY "{{ut_path|pathscrub}}" "{{outpu
    t}}"

    This should be ne for exget. Replace folders according to your system. Check your con guration with
    exget --check.

    Windows 7, uTorrent and Scheduled Tasks


    Running uTorrent in Windows 7 can be done either in normal desktop GUI mode (utorrent.exe process
    type Console) or uTorrent can be run as a Service (utorrent.exe process type Service) on the background
    and can be accessed only via WebUI interface. Both ways should work ne.

    Console mode
    1. Create new task at Scheduled Tasks with option “Run only when user is logged on”. See attached le.
    2. Add trigger e.g. once every hour
    3. Add action: “c:\path\to\ exget\ exget-headless.exe” and with argument “–cron”
    4. Modify Conditions and Settings anyway you like

    This way exget is run every hour and new torrents are added to existing uTorrent GUI session. Headless
    version of exget avoids command prompt pop-up appearing every time exget is executed. You need to
    be logged in to Windows.

    There is one downside in this method. Utorrent will be brought up every time new torrent is added to
    utorrent by scheduled exget tasks. This can’t be avoided with /HIDE or /MINIMIZED or Boss key
    methods. If there’s a way to avoid this downside, don’t hesitate to update this wiki.

    Service mode
    1. Create new task at Scheduled Tasks with option “Run wheter user is logged on or not”
    2. Add trigger e.g. once every hour
    3. Add action: “c:\path\to\ exget\ exget.exe” and with argument “–cron”
    4. Modify Conditions and Settings anyway you like

    This way exget is run every hour and new torrents are added to existing uTorrent background session.
    Easy way to create background session is to run newly created Scheduled Task rule manually. Before
    running, remember to enable WebUI access from uTorrent GUI, otherwise you will lose control to
    uTorrent.

    ## Output files two utorrent

    download:
    path: C:\torrents\
    overwrite: yes

    # Output series to uTorrent


    exec: C:\Progam Files\uTorrent.exe /DIRECTORY "{{ut_path|pathscrub}}" "{{outpu
