Install and use Deluge

Deluge is a modular and lightweight BitTorrent client. Its web interface is suitable for users looking for detailed torrent, file, and peer management.

Important: Only download and share content that you have the right to use.

Install Deluge from My Console

Only one primary P2P client is active at a time. Installing Deluge therefore replaces the Transmission or qBittorrent card, without deleting the files already present on the storage.

  1. Log in to Seedbox.fr, then open My Console.
  2. On the active P2P client card, click the ⋮ button.
  3. Select Configure.
  4. Locate Deluge, then click its Install button.

Selecting Deluge in P2P settings

The card displays In progress… during deployment. Wait several minutes without restarting the operation. Deluge is ready when Active and the Open button appear.

  6. Click Connect to connect the web interface to the Deluge service.

Discover the interface

Main interface of Deluge

The main areas are:

  • the Add, Delete, Pause and Resume toolbar;
  • the Filters pane, to display torrents according to their status;
  • the central list with size, progress, flow rates and remaining time;
  • the Status, Details, Files, Peers and Options tabs;
  • Preferences, to adjust the behavior of the interface and transfers.

Add and manage a torrent

Click Add, then import a .torrent file or provide a URL. Check the destination folder before confirming. Completed downloads should ideally be stored in a subfolder of /downloads/complete/.

Select a torrent to pause, resume, or delete it. Before deleting, check whether the downloaded files will be kept or deleted.

Switch back to another P2P client

On the Deluge card, open ⋮ > Configure, and then install Transmission or qBittorrent. Wait for deployment to complete before using the new client.
