toh Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 I also have problems adding torrents, but from firefox in my case. 1.2.2 works fine, though, so I'll just downgrade.Edit: Wow, that was a fast fix. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gurukid Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 Thanks for the cool update! I love the older version, and I am sure this will be something I love even more!- Feature: Added option to enable/disable internal tracker.- Feature: Added setting to control how fast utorrent tries to connect to new peers.How do these work? Are they both user changable?And, what do you mean by this?:- Fix: Upload a little bit more aggressivelyThanks again! ~~ GK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 Naturally, option/setting means it's changeable. They're found in the Advanced Options page. As for the uploading more aggressively, it's exactly as it says O.o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICleolion Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 Ok here goes with explaining the problem with adding torrents.Adding torrents via the OPEN (OPEN before saving, not the OPEN button when download is complete) command in IE6 when downloading a file, adding torrents when UTorrent is closed, and dragging torrent files into Utorrent works fine. I also dont have the multiple instances problem.BUT adding torrents when Utorrent is already running has problems not experienced in 1.2 (the problem occurs between builds 360 and 361, somebody in a previous thread said it started with the noargs version you posted up).Basically i have two torrents on my desktop, both torrent files are displaying different behaviours which is gonna make this well complicated to explain.One torrent refuses point blank to add by double clicking on it while Utorrent is open, all it does it make the Utorrent block in the start bar blink orange.The other torrent will usually add to Utorrent while it is open. But sometimes when i double click on it, it will just do the same as the other torrent.UPDATE: I downloaded the torrent that was point blank refusing to work from another torrent site, its the same torrent but this site gives it a different name, and this torrent now displays the same behaviour as the other one which works most of the time.UPDATE 2: I take back what i said about it working when pressing OPEN in IE. This works MOST of the time for the torrent that works most of the time using double clicking method. But for the torrent that point blank refuses to work, it also point blank refuses to work using the OPEN option in IE instead of saving it to harddrive.

hofshi Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 does anyone know what's the meaning of this:- Feature: Detect encoding field in a torrent and parse filenames accordingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amonrei Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 Oh by the way, delete torrent using delete key on the keyboard AND the delete button never worked. I got over 300 torrents in utorrent app data folder now. Deleting torrent via menu worked though.I have no idea why i still have the annoying multiple instance problem and i wonder why there's still that annoying multiple torrent selection going apart problem when moving it up and down even though it's been mentioned like a million times.I just got a feeling that my post is going to be ignored again ... am i asking too much ? I just want the minor annoyances to be fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zebulon Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 "Open torrent" problem too here I bypassed it (by chance?) by going to the temp directory where Firefox put it and double-clicking on it.I'm sure you'll solve that very soon, though Thanks for all the hard work on µTorrent... I'll keep using version 1.3 unless that bug really annoys me, but it's not like I'm adding 50 torrents a day EDIT : it seems to work 100% of the time with the Add Torrent dialog box. But not with the "Open With" feature of my browser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 Ok, thanks but I will stick with 1.22 for awhile...EDITbtw what is "atomic movefile"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xybre Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 Awesome, great work. I love this BT client, been using it for a couple of months anow and coulen't be happier, I love how small and compact it is, no bloat, no java, and stable. I also like the little change from "inf" to the ∞ symbol, I like little touches like that. Awesome program, thank you so much for creating it.
