Hey Alx Thank you!  Python scripts were my reason for switching to XBMC, and a bittorrent client was the script I wanted most.  I've been trying to mod the same script you started with, and now I'm trying to mod yours (multiple downloads, Torrentfile selection would be sweet)  I'm so new to python, so I dunno if I'll get anywhere (Or what is even possible for that matter).
In anycase, your  script works great!!!!  (Got sopranos with it, couple small test files too)  One question though is what happens to those crappy slow torrents?  Successful torrents say "bittorrent.py  Running" during entire process.   But other torrents (That I can load on my PC) only flash "Running" beside the script briefly.
(These are weak torrents don't get me wrong)  If you can tell me why that happens, and possibly how to force it to keep trying to connect for days that would be cool.  Anyways, I'm gonna go look into that again right now.

i did a fresh install of xbmc, the 09/03 one with python from 09/02 and everything is ok with it.
So maybe the problem is your torrent file? If the download is ok on another bittorrent client send it to me (but only if it's not copyrighted stuff)

Also be sure to have the latest version of my script.

They are only basic scripts to show how xbmc librairies work.
So no documentation is needed, just launch them.
And unluckily there's no place for xbmc scripts, even more only few people are coding using python xbmc  sad.gif

Python scripts are not common to find unluckily.
I wish I could find more scripts on internet...

There is an xbe called "Xbox FTP client" can do xbox/xbox xfer at like 10MB/s.  Not limited to other xboxes at all though.  Kinda buggy with 4977 I believe.  I never got connected till I flashed w/4981.67.  (Just a hunch) The keyboard is harsh, but you can edit the ini file directly, then click on the entry in the connect window.

If you need to do xbox to xbox, try enabling FXP in xbmc's ftp server (filezilla server.xml) then you can use a pc client like flashfxp to setup the direct transfer between the two xboxes.

I think you'll run out of memory very quickly with multiple torrents. Each socket uses a fair sized chunk of memory for buffering, and a single torrent can easily reach 50+ sockets.

and memory is very important on XBMC, even more if you are watching a movie while downloading a torrent.

Someone sent me a modified version of my bit torrent script so expect an update soon.
Also i'm looking for a beta tester with a good knowledge of XBMC,network and computer in general

Hi,
has anybody ever checked out this Python based Jabber client??

http://jabberpy.sourceforge.net/

Would be cool to have it available, too

no virtual keyboard on python xbmc so it's useless for now

Internet checker:

get it here

So you can check if internet is working on the xbox and if name resolving ( using DNS ) is working too.
