I guess that's how things have to be, when something becomes popular and is free, eventually they have to sell out (Digsby is an example, although they say they are "back" but now open-source so it's as good as abandoned)
Well best alternative that I'd recommend would be either qBittorrent or Tixati for those that are ditching uTorrent once this goes live.
I havent' had much experience with Vuze but with how complicated the settings can get, I don't want to bother.
And definitely with this new Ad-ware to be included that can't be turned off, bad move. I mean just having various software offers in the installer is enough. But to have something youc an't even configure, gg.

^Oops my mistake, I misquoted myself. I meant in reference to:
@rafi/Firon: Well for 3.1, when you download the Download Dialog that pops up asks you specifically where you want to save said file. So when it comes to reseeding, you can just direct the download to wherever the file is.As for 3.2/3.3, the Download Dialog changes to where you not only pick which Folder to download the file, but you also have a different spot to Rename the file. With this method, at times when you're re-seeding, you can't just Force Recheck on the spot like in 3.1, but now you have to manually "Relocate" where the file is. This made it to where it takes a few more extra steps to re-seed, and I'm not 100% sure if that issue of the "Error : the handle is invalid" has been fixed, as that was another issue I had.
Since I tend to do more Re-seeding than downloading, and the tracker I use requires you to download the .torrent after you uploaded it so then 3.2/3.3 changed that way of the Download Dialog.
-
And I'm actually using the Stable build as 3.2's method of downloading/seeding is a bit different, and 3.3 is a bit better but still has issues.
So it isn't like i'm using 3.3. primarily, I check in between updates to see if things have been fixed/ working the way I'm used to before making it primary use like I've done in the past (Use Alpha builds as primary, but I think from 3.2 onward things started changing a lot in regard to downloading/re-seeding)
@Firon: Just thought to poke at this feature to see if there was much mof a change since after I made that reply, nothing was replied for it.
Thanks.

Okays, thanks!

You might have better results if you disabled TCP, since TCP is regulated based on uTP data but not perfectly compared to letting uTP streams regulate themselves. I had very good results running in uTP only mode in the 1.9 days.
Hmm if only uTP would you set the bt.transp_disposition to 26 opposed to the default of 31?

@Firon: I'm only saying so incase it was missed.

Despite these updates, still no fix on "Forced Downloading/Seeding" issue? WHere if any torrents are set to "Forced" upon restart, they are set to "Finished".
-
Hmm even with latest still no fix on the "Force Seed" torrents where upon restart they are reset to "Finished"?
-
^The Handle is invalid applies to regular torrent links, not just magnet ones. Tested via when you delete the torrent and then re-add it in to recheck the file, then that error shows up as well.
-
Yups had to start fresh sadly I ended up formatting too >< Ah well, glad it's fixed now.
-
@ex58: As far as things are I think it's still Alpha.
-
Not sure if anyone else is experiencing this but when the left panel reads "Active (1)", I have 11 Torrents displayed although only 1 is active, but there are 10 others that are present with no activity.
-
Can I safely assume that this is 32-bit only thus far?
-
Thanks for that, though curious what was changed as I hope it wasn't just the toolbar stuff.
-
Weird. Starting from build 25305 (Currently using latest, 25329), whenever I try to create a torrent for Xvid/.avi files, i can't upload them as I get some sort of BBEditor error on the Trackers end. But for H264/.mp4 files it works just fine.
NOt too sure what other details to provide. Currently having to use Make Torrent II to create torrents for my Xvid encodes.
-
Another bug is:
If you have for example "Active" selected.
But you want to Start torrents in another label.
If you right click on that label to "Start" them, it applies it to "Active" instead of the Label you want. Applies to basically any label, just using an example.
-
^Thanks.
Looking forward to the fix.
-
I'm sure this has been mentioned before but the 64-bit, when checking for updates, leads to the 32-bit update when there aren't any for 64-bit.

Despite title reading "25233", the installer is still at "25230"

-- 2011-04-13: Version 3.0 (build 25199)
- Fix: Allow user to chow/hide "Has Header" column in files tab.
- Fix: bugs in web remote cache and pairing apps
- Change: Refactor visibility code. Make utorrent and bittorrent visible
when launched, but mirror last state at startup.For:
"- Fix: Allow user to chow/hide "Has Header" column in files tab."
Change "chow" to "show", and I was wondering what is that Column anyway? Since I dont' see a difference when I have it enabled/disabled.
-
Thank you.
-
Any way to get rid of the "Drop here to publish" thing?
-
Thank you =), that's why I questioned it as that's the first place i look too.
A few notes on the upcoming changes to uTorrent
in Announcements
Posted · Edited by SacredCultivator
Hmm the users actually do have some say in what gets put into a program.
Guess you've completely missed out on all the users that provided feedback for things in the program to improve it.
And since the devs have said what they plan to do, the users can voice out their opinions and of course they can find alternatives if they don't like it, but of course the devs don't want to lose their userbase so they best listen and not continue with their plans for the ads within the program.
Just saying.
I mean obviously if a free program becomes the "best" and then they now know that, they would definitely want to capitalize on that in anyway. It's smart but at the same time, it's what's going to destroy them as numerous users have mentioned.
I know for me I don't use uTorrent primarily anymore. It's actually my 2nd, first being qbittorrent at the moment.

EDIT:
Of course users can just NOT upgrade to the version that will support their plans and just stick to current/future versions that don't have it. {UNless it becomes a forced install/upgrade}
