Ironically, it was easier to update Windows 10 to Windows 11 than it was to do updates between versions of Windows 10! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throw in that the product already works well, and regular betas aren't as important as perhaps they once were. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshace Posted November 22, 2021 Report Share Posted November 22, 2021 The "free" version is loaded with advertising, and there is also a paid version. If you think this program doesn't have serious bugs, you haven't used it long. Even if you forget about bugs.. it is still compiled as 32 bit - which limits how much memory it has access to. It needs to join the 21st century and be compiled as 64 bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
javacatpaul Posted November 23, 2021 Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 Ok, since it has been so quiet here for so long, I will repeat a "bug" complaint I've made before: when uT is launched without any torrent jobs in the main pane then the LOGGER tab pane below is empty and "locked" - no info will display there EVER until a torent job is added. It's some sort of initalization bug. Minor I know, but if you need something to fix... Thanks in advance! BTW, I've used uT for YEARS now and never once have I seen an ad - it is certainly not "loaded with advertising". Even a novice can do a little research and stop that nuisance from happening, Rafi's Best Practices and Tips thread is the place to start, that's where I began and I recommend all curious uT users to start there to learn the ins-and-outs of this highly customizable tool...or look elsewhere for a simpler solution, there are several alternatives available these days. I still like uT the best, and this forum has always provided insights when I needed them...Thanks To All Participants! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

javacatpaul Posted December 13, 2021 Report Share Posted December 13, 2021 I have another "bug" to report, been present for a long time now. If a mag link is particularly large it won't "get recognized" properly. It seems the receive buffer for the link is of limited size, I'd guess about 2K chars. In the past that was perfectly acceptable, but of late several indexing web sites have started to really enlarge mag links with a dozen or more trackers and they are getting pretty large. They are often 4k or more characters long now... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are likely right, I think the buffer can hold 1k or 2k characters. I've seen this using WebAPI, where I was in control, and could take care of shortening the mag links .

So, buffer size issue... Have you tried adding Torrent from URL... (Ctrl+U)? I cannot reproduce the bug when pasting the mag link into the dialog box. And, as you can see above, the entire tracker list has been included. Running rafi's latest uTorrent.exe with LAA flag with minimally modified settings.dat also from rafi.

javacatpaul Posted December 15, 2021 Report Share Posted December 15, 2021 I didn't try pasting the maglink in manually via ctl-u, I let the system do the handoff, from Firefox to uT [the dde mechanism]. Perhaps it is a system deficiency, I do think it's "telling" that you get one behaviour when uT needs to be started-up and another when it's already running, the event messages are the same as I recall... FWIW, my normal everyday method of starting a torrent is to copy JUST the hashid to the clipboard and then paste that into uT via ctl-u, that way ONLY DHT gets used to find peers; works every time nice and neat with no middle-men... BTW I'm running 46112 on W7 with no LAA flag... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gif2D™ Posted December 16, 2021 Report Share Posted December 16, 2021 So, the limitation could be generated by command line buffer, not the application. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
javacatpaul Posted December 16, 2021 Report Share Posted December 16, 2021 Yeah, it could be a that, since magnet links are passed "via the command line", yes Win 7 could be trunc'ing the link. As I recall the limit for a true command line is about 8K chars. I'm not sure about a drag-n-drop command or a DDE command message. I did try pasting that full link into ctl-U and it worked fine, as you said. Since the case where uT is NOT yet running does work acceptably, tho truncated, it seems to point in that direction. But the case where it's already running and it just ignores the hand-off isn't right, it ought to take the mag link and use it, if truncated then so be it. It should be consistant at least...

darkred Posted January 20, 2022 Report Share Posted January 20, 2022 (edited) It was definitely changed. Previously, when opening the installer via 7-zip, there were various files, among which there was always a Carrier.exe (~2 MB) with which I always replaced my installed uTorrent.exe . In the 46148 version there's essentially only a GenericSetup.exe (10 MB), which apparently incorporates all relevant separate files of previous versions, and which cannot be further opened via 7-zip. I attach screenshots of e.g. builds 46090 vs 46148 opened inside 7-zip : Edited January 20, 2022 by darkred 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SergeyQA Posted January 20, 2022 Report Share Posted January 20, 2022 Ah. You are talking about stable release. It is different. This topic is about beta. Still you can get all files you are looking in the temp directory. Launch stable installer, check all files unpacked in the windows %temp% directory. Do whatever you are doing with them. Stop installer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
