I have a few questions about the autodl-irssi IRC Servers settings for rutorrent client.

I am trying to figure out how to join an additional channel within the IRC Server settings

You press New and set the details for the other channel (Announce channel and Invite command)

There is a caveat though.

Nick, password and email have to be the same for both announce channels that you want to join (sometimes trackers enforce specific nickname rules that make this impossible)

Edit: If there is a way to bypass that i still haven't found it, so let's wait for some more people to pitch in.

I understand everything you just explained. My question is for example I am a member of Polishsource.cz. I have set the announce channel and the invite command but I need to be able to join another channel so it can show me idling in the IRC for my IRC bonus. I have tried to join the channel but the system has been returning errors. My question is can the additional channel be added or not?

Ah now i understand what you mean. Don't think this is the function of autodl-irssi. It's job is to join the announce channel. For idling on other channels you might use an IRC client

I think I have already tried that and when I log into my mirc client it tells me the nick is already in use. So can't be logged in autodl-irssi and my irc client at the sametime unless you know another option.

well on IRC you should register a different nick...let's say masonos, and in autodl-irssi you register something like masonos_bot

I might try that. I thought your nick had to be the same on the irc and autodl-irssi.
