  1. The final release is freezing whenever I try to recheck a big torrent. Also, if you change priority in some files and close utorrent it won't quit properly and remain on the background, thus having to manually kill it thru process manager (and changes get lost)

  2. Why ? I am using it since forever now... :(

    Me too. When did this feature become broken?

    The feature has never worked reliably due to the original implementation (and trust me' date=' I'm very familiar with all the problems). Some work has been put in lately to make it much saner though. It's good to know you guys are using it though, since that'll make tracking down the problem easier.[/quote']

    I was using it too and been having similar problems. It's good to know that it was caused by that. Too bad, because it is a great feature to easily tell which files are completed and which not (checking the filelist inside uT is a pain in the ass, sorry)

  3. I'll ask again. Please help!!

    How can I add the status icons in the "Name" colunm in Utorrent 3.0?

    I want these icons at side to the file name, like it was in 2.2.1

    Anyone knows how to proceed? I cannot find any option in UT to enable it.

    You can also enable the "status" column, which is much nicer than those icons :)

  4. @notabug,

    you do not download files, you download parts of files. If one of those parts happens to include data for 2 different files utorrent will show these parts as downloaded (as they were) - afaik this has always been like this. And since an info is usually smaller than a part, it's always downloaded along even without being selected - which is why it doesn't show up in the explorer. If you Stop the torrent and then select to download the info it will instantly appear (because it already is downloaded and currently "hidden" within the partfile you see in the explorer).

    Also:

    95.3 + 89.2 = 184.5 - it might just show 187 MB as selected, because the two files you selected happened to be partitioned in a way, that will make you download a few extra parts/chunks (note file order does not necessarily equal the chunk order). Example: Chunk size is 1 MB - You download a torrent with an exactly 1 MB large mp3 and a 10kb large nfo, while you did not select the nfo to be downloaded. In that case the torrent has two chunks/parts. Since the mp3 exactly fits in one chunk, the nfo will not be downloaded. Now if the chunk size was 2MB, the nfo and the mp3 would be part of the same chunk, resulting in both being shown as downloaded.

    Hmm, so this could be the reason why a torrent from Fake Tracker 1 is reporting to be 100% and the same torrent released by the same release group (both torrents being 100% exactly the same) is reporting, say, 95% complete while rechecking it on a Fake Tracker 2 torrent... I am trying to outside seed torrents between trackers and that's what's happening to me. I downloaded the files I wanted from FT1 and wanted to seed them on FT2's torrent (can't just add the tracker because I get an error) and FT2's torrent is reporting it as incomplete. How can I do this then? It's supposed to be doable.

  5. You really have to do something about the damn upload chocker. I am seeding 5 torrents with many peers and it is only uploading from one...

    It sounds like you should contact the peers that are on the other torrents' date=' and ask them to download more.

    If you do a wireshark capture, we'll be happy to look at it for you.[/quote']

    I don't know, man. But since uT v3 I keep "wasting" my upload capabilities. I have my upload set to 25 kb/s but uT keeps uploading from only one file at like 8 kb/s, while there are other torrents with 40+ peers to whom uT just won't connect (it shows that it is connected to 0). Even limiting the uploading file's upload doesn't affect the others. It's killing my ratio in all private torrent sites.
