Do clients actually expose that functionality? I haven't seen those BEPs being used in the wild, so I'm very curious of features using those BEPs are actually available to users in existing clients.
- steeve 6y agoThey don't need to enable it, it's enabled. Yes, you can put mutable data in the DHT used by all libtorrent programs (qBittorrent for instance).
- rodarmor 6y agoI might be misunderstanding, but I would expect that both BEP 39 and BEP 46 would have to be exposed to the end user in the UI, and I don't see that in qBittorrent. For BEP 39, "Updating Torrents Via Feed URL", added torrents with `info.update-url` would hit a feed to check for updates. Does qBittorrent actually do this? For BEP 46, "Updating Torrents Via DHT Mutable Items", qBitorrent would have to allow adding torrents via magnet link with `?xs=urn:btpk:PUBKEY`. I tried this, and it didn't work. Is there some other way to do this?
