Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: transmission
Ubuntu Version 8.10
Transmission 1.51
The scheduler included in Transmission only allows you to specify
bandwidth constraints on a single time-zone that will occur every day
(e.g. limit bandwidth between 8am - 10pm every day).
It does not enable the user to have multiple time zone bandwidth
constraints (e.g. between 8am - noon and 1pm to 6pm). Nor does it allow
users to treat different days of the week differently.
This is a critical flaw in the scheduler as a large number of ISPs
employ bandwidth limits for user's connections. These bandwidth limits
do not apply in times that the ISP classes as "off-peak". Nor do they
apply at the weekend. As a result it makes sense limit Transmission to
these times. To do such the scheduler needs to start treating days
differently.
I suggest a time table system like the one used in uTorrent (see
attachment) although a little more flexibility might be useful for some
users.
