BT4G¶
BT4G (bt4g.com) is not a tracker and doesn’t store any content and only collects torrent metadata (such as file names and file sizes) and a magnet link (torrent identifier).
This engine does not parse the HTML page because there is an API in XML (RSS). The RSS feed provides fewer data like amount of seeders/leechers and the files in the torrent file. It’s a tradeoff for a “stable” engine as the XML from RSS content will change way less than the HTML page.
Configuration¶
The engine has the following additional settings:
With this options a SearXNG maintainer is able to configure additional engines for specific torrent searches. For example a engine to search only for Movies and sort the result list by the count of seeders.
