Poll sites to update seeds/leechers about prowlarr HOT 7 CLOSED

You can just repeat the search.

The problem with that is repeating the search 50 times for the same torrent on 50 different sites that aren't reporting the correct amount of seeds. There are other projects for dealing with torrents that stalled but nothing covers this

Public trackers use misleading numbers on purpose for peers, so even if we implement your request it would be the mostly the same misleading numbers. That's why we recommend using 50 as minimum seeders for public trackers.

Also, using 50 public indexers is way too high. So your only solution here is to use better trackers.

1 When you manually click the update on the page it will usually reflect the real numbers.
2 Setting a minimum of 50 seeds would rule out any content more than a month old.
3 The whole reason of your app is to be able to search large volumes of indexers easily. You have over 100 public trackers listed

1. like I already said, it's not possible to show real numbers anyway. I feel like you didn't read my previous message.
2. don't expect retention with public trackers. 🤷‍♂️
3. yes, indeed. but when you search across 50 indexers, the search is going to be slow as your slowest tracker.

1. If its "not possible to show real numbers" then you haven't understood that I'm asking for a 2 step process:
   Ask the site to check the current seeders and leechers from the tracker.
   Then report that data back to the arr's
2. Retention isn't 50+ seeders as long as there is more than 1 seeder available 24/7 then the torrent is alive.
3. Some of us aren't worried about how long the process takes because its unattended

If you get 100 results for a search and want it to automatically update the seeds and leechers values for all results, you'll have to access all 100 details pages and then repeat the search.

So for a single search you've made 102 requests to the site. Not only is that going to take a long time, you'll either cripple the site (when multiplied by the number of Jackett and Prowlarr users using that same tracker) and/or get your IP flagged for bot/DDoS activity, and likely the UAs for Jackett and Prowlarr too.

This is not going to be implemented, nor should it be.
