Media Pipeline Pitfalls
Torrents — Do Not Rename Files
Never rename torrent source files or folders while a torrent is active. Transmission tracks files by path. Renaming breaks the association and causes re-download or stalled seeding.
torrent-set-location Updates downloadDir
torrent-set-location in the Transmission RPC updates downloadDir in
the torrent metadata. Use this when moving completed files, not a manual
rename. Sequence:
- Move files to new location on disk
- Call
torrent-set-locationwith the new path +move=false - Verify torrent goes back to seeding state
General Rules
- Never touch source files/folders (media-pipeline USER.md rule)
resolve-manualis emergency-only- NFO files: do not create manually; let the pipeline handle them
- Never delete test files from the pipeline project
