I’m happy enough to seed til kingdom come, but I’m not aware of any facility that allows this with the 'Arrs.

Is there a way to continue seeding after download is completed, and also after the files have been moved and renamed to conform to whatever convention you have in place that the media players can pick up?

I currently have them continuing for 3x ratio in the downloads folder but that’s duplicating files for who knows how long, and I don’t have an enormous amount of space.

Can the torrent client be hooked back to the files under their new names, and can it be automated?

    I have my arrs connected through SMB and hardlinks work fine.

    I’d guess it’s more about the underlying filesystem, I’ve got ext4.

      Are you sharing the top folder holding both folders where you’re creating the hardlinks or are you creating individual shares for each folder?

        The former.

        You cannot hardlink across drives, and I’m guessing the OS might not know it’s one drive if you’ve got multiple shares.

          For sure! Yeah I was just remembering that shares get mounted as a drive when you access them. So makes sense.
