Suggestion

Can automatically select and filter the directories and files that do not need to be downloaded (Download list in Torrent files, similar to RSS torrent file filtering rules)
Reason:
The content of some torrent files contains too many junk/unnecessary files and directories, pictures, URL links, virus exe, etc.
or I just want to download only one type of file
or maybe there are two vedio in the file and I need the one with a larger file size.

Best Regards

Use case

*For example, the Sample directory and all the files below
*All files with the suffix url
*can choose whether to enable/bypass the global rule in the RSS rule
or I only want to download mkv and nfo (whitelist filtering mode)
orr I just want to remove the url file (blacklist filter mode)
Support regular and simple rule ,
simple rules like:
*.url
*.exe
no_need_dir
*file_and_dir_i_dont_need*
Support file size like option:
only download the bigest/smallest size file on one file type, and download the nfo suffix (at the same time, the nfo file is only download if it matches the rule * such as the defined filter rule for obtaining file names)
Some torrent files will also contain a lot of nfo
