Example enter here c:/tmp
uTorrent: Server or IP, port, user,password
Following setting is required if you want the pyBox to sync with uTorrent. So that if you delete a directory in pyBox it deletes/stops the download from uTorrent.
Enter for example: localhost,6881,admin,*********
Movie web site root:
is the url to use when you want to make the movies available on the internet. This url is then used as a path to stream the movie from and will be indicated as a path in the generated .asx file.
Enter for example http://mysite/movies.
Exclusion list:
The exclusion list is used by the feeder to ignore torrents that contain the following words.
If you enter a line starting with * eg *simpsons then the feeder does not mention that a torrent was excluded.
Enter for example: 1080 to avoid downloading 1080i or 1080p very large movies
Once your are sure it works well you can try pyBox on your collection: Run pyBox with your own collection directory
