kuchiru Posted May 30, 2014 Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 Hello, thanks for reading! I use BTsync to sync files between my media server and a HTPC, the media server doesnt have a lot of storage capacity so i clear it frequently.Now the downside to this is that btsync also deletes the files from my HTPC even though i may have not gotten to watch them yet.. this is kind of annoying and i want to stop btsync from deleting files from my HTPC, how do i do this ? Its set up as read only from the server so the HTPC wont write to the server when something changes which is what i want. thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kuchiru Posted May 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 For some reason i cant edit my post but i figured i'd elaborate the situation: Media Server running linux - this is where i generated the read only secret on.HTPC running Windows - receives new data but will not upload anything else from the media library to the server (which is intended)i just want the received data to sit there while the Server can be emptied to receive more files and fill the library. i hope it all makes sense.

Firon Posted May 30, 2014 Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 You cannot. Sync is meant to synchronize all clients to be identical.It will keep deleted files in .SyncArchive for a period of time, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kuchiru Posted May 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 Okay, that is understandable, shame its not possible though, perhaps some kind of retention setting is possible in the future? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatMarko Posted May 30, 2014 Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 Sounds like there's a similar suggestion over in the Feature Requests forum - perhaps consider adding your voice/vote for such functionality there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
