I was about to make my own post about this and I found yours. I couldn't agree more. :hug:
Great topic and I was wondering the same thing. Started being more active on gaytorrent.ru and noticed something that makes organizing files harder. So many times the downloaded file doesn't match the description at all. For example:
https://www.gaytorrent.ru/details.php?id=19d66236a69cf7d4a72fa5b9d2d8b90711c62eb6e269862e&filelist=1#xfilelist
Title is: Nice cum with ass anal dildo
Filename is: xvideos.com_3fc8bb0bf51ff06fb486025ce6841c28-1.mp4
I truly appreciate the uploader's efforts to provide us with such stimulating footage. My problem cums when I try to find the file.
When I look in my download directory (using utorrents 2.2.1) I have no idea what this file is.
Uploading well named files will help in seeding/keeping a torrent alive. In the above example I would rename "xvideos.com_3fc8bb0bf51ff06fb486025ce6841c28-1.mp4" to something more meaningful like: "[xvideos] nice cum with ass anal video.mp4" so I know what it is.
If I understand correctly, once a file is renamed it can't be reseeded. I want to keep files alive and healthy ratios.
Does gaytorrent.ru have file naming suggestions/ standards that include Source/Movie Name/Actors? I used your windows tool to upload my first torrent here and and it was easy and well designed. Adding suggested file naming to the instructions for uploading a torrent would help newbies and well seasoned wankers improve file naming and the quality of the database and seeding rates.
Source/Studio - Movie/Clip Name - Actor(s).mp4 is what I personally use. If we can encourage people to use meaningful file names that match the torrent description, I think everybody would be happier. Torrents would continue to be seeded and files wouldn't have to be renamed after the fact. It also helps to make sure I don't download something I already have.
This is a wonderful website and has a great community and format. The search engine and freeleech feature are very generous and well thought out.
I use Kodi/XBMC to play my files back. I don't use the catalog/library format as I haven't found out a way to organize all this stuff. Is there a gay movie scraper and file format to follow to keep our art films organized and categorized?
Thanks, Ellis, for bringing this up. This is my first forum post/reply and I hope my reply made some sense.
@Ellis:
Please change the name of the video before you create, and upload your torrent. This isn’t a difficult thing to do.
It makes it so much easier to find your video after downloading the torrent.
Here’s one random example, out of the countless that are constantly uploaded to the site:
https://www.gaytorrent.ru/details.php?id=19d66236a69cf7d4ffef56667042f8ed512b905e3773d823
In my opinion the video is great in terms of its quality and content.
The torrent title…
“Nice cum with ass anal dildo”–and its description--also good, accurately describing the video.
The video title…
“xvideos.com_3fc8bb0bf51ff06fb486025ce6841c28-1”
WTF?!
Really, it doesn’t take much to “copy and paste” the torrent title to rename the video.
It would be most appreciated!
