If the files are all saved in the same download directory and without renaming, you could take all of the torrent files from the session directory and add them into qbittorrent pointing to the same download directory. You could also right click any torrent or groups of torrents in rutorrent and press "get torrent". This will create and download a .zip file of all the torrents that you have selected, with all the .torrent files. I could not go this route since I had a lot of unique directories for many of the torrents.

I just finished migrating over my torrents from the depreciated binhex rutorrent container. I did have to pip install qbittorrent-api to simplify using the qbittorrent api. I am not a programmer and so my process is super clunky but I was able to migrate about 3.4k torrents successfully. I am not running unraid but I am using the same containers. Rather than downloading the torrent files via "get .torrent" in rutorrent, I downloaded the torrents in the session directory of rtorrent which are named with the hash. I had a bunch of torrents with custom directories set and without the torrent name added to the path so I could not import all of my torrents and point them at a certain directory. I had manually moved some torrents over so I ended up making a python script to compare the torrents loaded in qbittorrent to those in rtorrent and for those missing, output the torrent name, hash, and save path to a .csv. Using the csv list of torrents and the torrent files from the rtorrent session directory I made another script to go through the .csv of torrents not in qbittorrent to add them using the save path from rtorrent for each torrent without creating subfolders. To generate the .csv of missing torrents: import csv import xmlrpc.client from qbittorrentapi import Client # qBittorrent API Configuration QB_USERNAME = 'USERNAME' #change QB_PASSWORD = 'PASSWORD' #change QB_HOST = '192.168.1.123' # Modify with qbittorrent ip address QB_PORT = 9081 # Modify qbittorrent iport # ruTorrent Configuration RUTORRENT_RPC_URL = 'http://USERNAME:[email protected]:9080/RPC2' # Modify with your rutorrent credentials # Connect to qBittorrent qb_client = Client(host=QB_HOST, port=QB_PORT) qb_client.auth_log_in(QB_USERNAME, QB_PASSWORD) # Connect to ruTorrent ru_client = xmlrpc.client.Server(RUTORRENT_RPC_URL) # Get list of torrents in qBittorrent qb_torrents = qb_client.torrents_info() # Get list of torrents in ruTorrent ru_torrents = ru_client.download_list("","main") # Compare the torrents and find missing ones missing_torrents = [] for ru_torrent in ru_torrents: ru_torrent_hash = ru_client.d.get_hash(ru_torrent).lower() found = False for qb_torrent in qb_torrents: if ru_torrent_hash.lower() == qb_torrent['hash'].lower(): found = True break if not found: ru_torrent_name = ru_client.d.get_name(ru_torrent) print("Missing Torrent found! " + ru_torrent_name) ru_torrent_path = ru_client.d.get_directory(ru_torrent) missing_torrents.append({ 'name': ru_torrent_name, 'path': ru_torrent_path, 'hash': ru_torrent_hash }) # Export missing torrents to a CSV file csv_file = 'missing_torrents.csv' with open(csv_file, 'w', encoding="utf-8", newline='') as file: writer = csv.writer(file) writer.writerow(['Torrent Name', 'Path', 'Torrent Hash']) for torrent in missing_torrents: writer.writerow([torrent['name'], torrent['path'], torrent['hash']]) print(f"List of missing torrents exported to {csv_file}") Take the csv and add the torrents to qbittorrent using the downloaded torrent files from the session directory import qbittorrentapi import os import csv def add_torrent(username, password, url, torrent_file_path, save_path): # Connect to the qBittorrent client client = qbittorrentapi.Client(host=url, username=username, password=password) client.auth_log_in() try: # Read the .torrent file as binary with open(torrent_file_path, 'rb') as file: torrent_data = file.read() # Set the request parameters parameters = { 'savepath': save_path, 'paused': True, # Set all torrents to be added as paused 'autoTMM': False # Disable subfolder creation } # Add the .torrent file client.torrents_add(torrent_files=torrent_data, savepath=save_path, category='', parameters=parameters) print("Torrent added successfully!") except qbittorrentapi.LoginFailed as e: print("Authentication failed.

I did a force recheck and once that was done everything was migrated over. You could modify this to do it all on the server and in a single script with less code but this is what I got to work.
