Feature Request : Add a torrent to my library

[ryanfelder]

Instead of having to build a giant ZFS NAS for my media, I'd like to be able to just add a magnet link to my library that looks and behaves like a local file (with a pulsar back end).

It would be even greater if I could backup or share my library online, as my library is now probably a file only a couple of megabytes.

I have submitted a feature request for better library integration as well.
It is the one thing holding me back from using pulsar regularly. If you are
interested I coded a set of bash scripts that basically do what you want
for the older xbmctorrent plugin, they are a bit cludgy, but they work and
build a set of strm files that can be added to your library, look up
torrentscrape on github if you want to take a look. At the very least it
will give you the functionality you want until pulsar has the proper
support.

I saw your post but felt I should create a separate feature request because your implementation and my request differ in a significant way. Your project does automatic searching, and my request is more for saving things I have searched for once and want to keep.

I agree that for video series/podcasts, some kind of process that goes and looks for new episodes is definitely valuable, but my specific request is for just a subset of that functionality, for example, saving a single standalone public domain movie.

isnt this library integration something that mancuniancol has done with a third part aplication provider for pulsar?
