Hi there,

I am watching a lot of TV shows and get my episodes per RSS from tvtorrents. utorrent parses the feed and displays it in a sortable way, so i could sort it according to season number and more.
QB only displays the raw title as it comes from the feed.

I would like to be able to sort the feed's elements according to whatever information is provided in the filename, like name, season, date added etc.

Any chance that could be implemented?

Thanks a lot.

Cheers

It is similar. But what I am after is a little different. I do not care about the file being renamed after it is downloaded. I want the list of available items in the feed to be sortable by, for one thing, the season and episode (here the renaming bit comes in, as it would have to be parsed anyways), the torrent title, the torrent size, date pulled from the feed....
something like this:
utorrent-releases

@sledgehammer999, if this is to be implemented should we redesign the UI? I don't know if anybody uses text browser, so I guess we could remove it. I would also move the default splitter closer to feed list to accommodate multiple columns in article list.

If you can post an UI mockup from Qt Creator that would be great.

Also where is text browser used?

rss

Text browser is the lower right widget. It displays article description/summary if provided by feed.

If you can post an UI mockup from Qt Creator that would be great.

No big changes, just move the separator closer to feed list and remove text browser.
