Description

It would be a great feature to be able to hard link the content to another folder where it is renamed to the right convention. Many private trackers require the files to be named exactly the same for seeding.

I tried to do this myself but I could not figure out where the renaming process is happening. Would love to know!

Contributor guide

Research direction
Look for renaming logic in the codebase, likely in a file manager or post processing module. Trace the download flow to find where files are renamed before seeding.
