! Early days. Marauder v1.0 is young: the core is validated end-to-end. 1 of 13 tracker plugins is still alpha — structurally complete and unit-tested, not yet validated against live services. Expect rough edges. See plugin status →

tracker plugin

Monitor Rutor automatically

stable

Rutor is a public Russian-language tracker, and it is the one plugin in Marauder that needs no setup at all — no account, no Cloudflare solver, no API key. Paste a release URL, or search Rutor from inside Marauder, and it watches that page for a new torrent. When one appears, Marauder fetches the real .torrent file from Rutor's download host and hands it straight to qBittorrent, Transmission, Deluge or µTorrent.

How Marauder monitors Rutor

  • Reads the release magnet from the topic page's download block, so the 'similar releases' list further down the page can never be mistaken for the release you are watching.
  • Upgrades that magnet to the real .torrent file from Rutor's download host, accepting it only when its infohash matches the page magnet — and falling back to the magnet, trackers intact, if no mirror serves a usable file.
  • Resolves the real release name and poster from the topic page, so a new topic shows a proper title instead of an id.
  • Searches Rutor by free text from the Add topic screen and hands the chosen result straight into the normal add-topic flow.
  • Follows Rutor's live mirrors automatically: rutor.info is canonical, new-rutor.org is the fallback, and topics saved against the retired rutor.org are re-pointed for you.

Setting it up

  1. 1 Nothing to configure — Rutor needs no account, so there is no credential to add.
  2. 2 Paste a Rutor release URL as a new topic, or use the Search trackers tab and pick a result.
  3. 3 Choose the client and category you want, and Marauder does the rest on its normal check schedule.

Rutor FAQ

Do I need a Rutor account?
No. Rutor's release pages, .torrent downloads and search are all publicly accessible, so Marauder never asks you for credentials. Verified end to end against the live site on 3 September 2026 with no account: change detection, the real .torrent file, title and poster resolution, and search.
Does Marauder give my client a magnet or a real .torrent file?
A real .torrent file whenever Rutor serves one, because a magnet has to find peers before a client can even read what it contains. Marauder only accepts the file when its infohash matches the magnet on the release page, so it can never deliver a different torrent than the one it is watching. If no mirror serves a usable file it falls back to the page magnet, announce URLs included.
Which Rutor domain does Marauder use?
rutor.info by default, with new-rutor.org as a mirror. The old rutor.org is a frozen clone — as of 3 September 2026 it was roughly 17,000 releases behind and answered current topic ids with a 'release does not exist' page — so Marauder no longer sends requests there. Topics you saved against it keep working: they are transparently re-pointed at the live mirror.
Can I search Rutor from inside Marauder?
Yes. Open Topics, choose Add topic, and switch to the Search trackers tab. Rutor needs no account, so its results appear with no configuration at all — title, size and seeder count — and clicking one prefills the add-topic form.
