  1. Welcome to the µTorrent Plus [pre-Alpha / early Alpha] We're excited to have you feedback on the new features that we are introducing for µTorrent Plus. The four main features you will see in the final product are: - Virus Protection - Integrated video playback - Remote control of your µTorrent client, with the added benefit of transferring files from your client to wherever you are in the world - Seamless transcoding between video and audio formats for many devices, including smart phones, and game consoles You have the chance to influence the shape of these features through using this pre-relase software. Incomplete features and known issues include: - Output video formats do not work on most devices - Converted files do not automatically copy to devices - Transcoder settings not yet optimal - Sort order in device and conversion panes changes each tick. - The transcoder only uses one core to decode / encode - Device nodes do not yet include media count - Installing Plus features gives little feedback they are installing - Transcoder performance is - Profiles are not included for all devices yet - Profiles for all devices are not correct (some converted media will not play on some devices) Thank you again, and we hope you enjoy this exciting peek at what's to come. Note: If you have to delete your settings to make progress on a bug, simply re-drag your .btkey file to µTorrent, and it will become µTorrent Plus again Known issues: *Transfer on complete broken http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=609542#p609542 *ut Plus undergoes plus activation EVERY TIME YOU START IT
  2. Why not just state in the change-log the incomplete features and know issues ?Now *that* is a good idea! I'll add them here: http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=606432#p606432
  3. Hi TeamDraven, Thanks for you report - that feature is not complete yet. We'll be sure to include info in the changelog when that is updated.
  4. Hi Senthil, The disk cache keeps some of the pieces of the files in memory. If there is a bug in the disk cache, incorrect packets could be sent, but it is likely that only the data portions would be incorrect. That is because the "protocol" parts of the packets (the heads, the non-data portions) mostly rely on the client version. Further, there is a mechanism to check (via hashing) that a piece was downloaded correctly.
  5. This is your only warning. This forum is here for us to serve our users, and for them to help each other. If I see any abusive behaviour toward BT employees, moderators, or any forum member, I will personally ban you.
  6. Thanks - we'll get around to that problem, but probably not for this release!
  7. Yes - we had a system for saving resume data that serialized all resume data to a file called resume.dat. That worked well for a small number of torrents, but was very inefficient for many torrents. Some users with a large number of torrents were seeing significant UI pauses. One of our engineers made a clever suggestion: save the resume data for each torrent in a separate file. Those files are being stored in %appdata%\utorrent\resume_dir That gives us the following benefits: * No more contention on resume.dat * No huge in-memory data structure is constructed to be written out * We can choose to write the data for only the torrents that have changed * We do not have to write resume data for all torrents at the same time As a precaution, we left in saving to resume.dat for now, so just in case there is a problem, you can downgrade safely. However, leaving this in negates the performance improvement, so once we are confident in this optimization, we will remove the code that saves resume.dat, and only save the resume_dir style information. (We'll leave in the code to read resume.dat, so that it is possible to seamlessly upgrade)
  8. Thanks - we'll release a fix for this memory leak on monday.
  9. UT 3.1 Alpha issues list: Known issues: * Copying to devices not finished * Plus transition UI not implemented * Appropriate Codec list for devices only partly filled in Broken: * Wrong availability in torrent list http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=606418#p606418 * ETA on stopped torrent http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=606418#p606418 * Got 3 seeding torrents, 1 on hard disk and 2 on a USB device. "Completed" and "Seeding" shows (3) but the only torrent that is there is the one on the hard disk. http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=607472#p607472 * "Clear peer list" doesn't change the (X) numbers in "Seeds" and "Peers" columns immediately. I see the correct numbers only later. http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=607472#p607472 [GUI update issue] * Crash on relocation http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=608956#p608956 * Downloading filter also shows Seeding torrents http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=609510#p609510 Fixed: * Unidentified memory leak http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=606418#p606418 * Torrent context menu "shows through" in devices pane http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=606420#p606420
  10. Thanks. We'll get this one fixed soon.
  11. Thanks for the feedback. How are the torrent labels broken? i.e. what was the situation before, and what is the situation now?
  12. Hi zdnko, For the wrong availability, can you also show us your peer list? Thanks
  13. Please email me the torrent, so we can have a shot at reproducing the processor time problem.
  14. Edit with more data Thanks. Please let these guys know: http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=429
  15. Partly fixed in RC4 for me - utorrent doesn't hang during startup' date=' it hangs sometime in the next half of an hour. [/quote'] RC6: after startup about 10 minutes before it hangs. How many torrents are loaded when this happens?
  16. That log message means that utorrent thought it was supposed to un-bundle something (a promotional torrent, for example), but failed to do so.
  17. Hi there, What you are seeing is likely due to a new feature, apps, that allow us (and users) to extend the client. Here's what to do: Click away to the Torrent view. Restart the client You'll see that your memory usage goes back to normal, and will stay that way until you load an app.
  18. You seem to be missing some key details.
  19. It appears to work fine. In your "Preferences->UI Settings" make sure you are setting "Minimize to tray" and "Close to tray" to meet your requirements. The "X" button at the top right of the ut window performs "Close" and the button one over' date=' on its left, which looks like a simple bar performs the 'minimize' operation.[/quote'] No it does not work fine. It should open with the UI closed and minminizedc to the tray. This has been an issue with this release since it came out. I filed a bug report on it but it seems no one reads them. If you look at the image below you can see that the settings are correct. http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b243/TK-1913/ut.png To Act on your bug report, we have to understand it first. If I'm counting correctly there were at least 3 separate issues with the tray icon. Perhaps the developer dealing with this problem fixed a different issue than the one your were trying to report. Thank you for your more complete bug report.
  20. This is a very good bug report. Which ut version were you using, and which version did you upgrade from? (Help | About uTorrent) We may need to contact you for more information, because this is the only report of this problem so far.
  21. RC4, line 10 http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=579920#p579920 Line 1 http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=588848#p588848 Last line http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=588830#p588830 Please try RC 8 and let us know if this problem still happens for you.
  22. Looks like a problem with the overlapped piece code.
