Tracker Templates and Lists

Tracker Template

A Tracker Template is a named list of trackers created within BiglyBT. Once defined you can manually merge, replace or remove a tracker template's contents from a download. You can also automate this process by using Tags. To access the Tracker Template editor right-click on an existing tracker in the Sources tab of a download and select 'Edit Tracker URL(s)' or right-click on a download and select 'Tracker/Torrent->Edit Tracker URLs' from the menu.

Tracker List

A Tracker List is a source of (generally) public trackers that are either manually maintained in a file or fetched from a web site (and maintained by a third party). These are supported within Tracker Templates - you can use the 'Add List' button in the template editor to insert one, use the right-click menu or manually insert by prefixing the actual list URI with 'trackerlist:'

For example:

trackerlist:http://a.b.c/list

will be replaced by the list of trackers downloaded from http://a.b.c/list when the template is used.

To refer to a local file use a 'file:' URI instead. For example

trackerlist:file:///C:/temp/tl.txt

on Windows will result in the list of trackers in the file C:\temp\tl.txt being inserted.
