Transmission: Queue

[badman89]

Hi, can somebody please explain how to set up a queue on Transmission? According to Transmission's webpage, it's possible to set up a queue but I can't figure out how to do it.

For instance, if I add three torrents at the same time, they all start downloading together. Instead, I want them to download one after the other. How do I achieve this?

Thank in advance!

Awesome! So, if I want the torrents to be downloaded one by one in a queue I just have to set maximum active transfers to 1?

Yep. In most cases, though, that's very inefficient, so you might want to consider at least 2-3 at a time.
