Hi,
Love the site especially the speed. But disappointed that the search indexes the name of the container of the torrent only and not the name of the files within the torrent.
To date the only site I know that does this is "filelisting dot com" but their website is very slow.
Do you have any plans to extend your product to add this feature. Maybe as a premium option?
Super useful to find single documents contained within archived bundles of files.

- sleepyhead 10y agoIf only HN had some sort of upvote feature.
- pvg 10y agoYou should set up an issue/feature request tracker instead of turning HN into one. This sort of stuff makes the discussion unreadable.
- VA3FXP 10y agoConsider this an upvote. Need a kidney? I'd be willing to offer one for this feature.

- arkj 10y agoWhy .in? Is this based in india?
- hollaworld 10y agoMy cents too for the feature
- simonebrunozzi 10y agoYes please!
- HelloNurse 10y agoArchived bundles of files having significant names are important! Torrents of opaque disk images and archives (e.g. pirated software) or video files (e.g. pirated movies and TV series episodes) might be popular, but the strong suit of BitTorrent are carefully crafted and often very large collections of books, music, emulator ROM files etc.
- kasumis_ 10y agowe may consider giving priority to bigger torrents.
- HelloNurse 10y agoSearch result priority is largely irrelevant for rare or specific files, since there are going to be few results (at least, few clearly different torrents) and each result is going to be inspected by looking at the file list. Indexing file names is the search quality improvement you need most. For example, I tried searching for "Pretty Polly", by the Poison Girls; moderately popular niche music. There are 0 results for "pretty polly" and 2 results for "poison girls", one of which is a complete discography collection containing that song. Imagine the results for more popular and prolific authors.
- kasumis_ 10y agoAbility to search inside torrents is being considered and will be added soon.
- supergreg 10y agoIt's frustrating when you are downloading one big rar file just because you need one of the small files inside.
