Adrenalin_ Posted February 26, 2006 Report Share Posted February 26, 2006 At drag&drop a file to the uTorrent, it show me a error box "Windows ran out of memory..", even after click OK, it appear again and again.. The only solution is to kill utorrent from "Task Manager".Yes, i know what utorrent try to open the dragged file as a torrent file, it still don't understand what i want to generat a new torrent with the dragged content.. (I suggest it here, but didn't get at least a reply).http://img118.imageshack.us/img118/1518/utorrentdraganddropbug1py.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mighty Buzzard Posted February 26, 2006 Report Share Posted February 26, 2006 Probably be a good idea to not do it unless you see it added in the changelog then. Still, freezing up even because the user is trying to do something incorrectly is still a bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R1CH Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 Bump because I too just encountered this "bug". Accidentally dropped a large file on uTorrent window and now I've got no option but to kill uTorrent. It would make more sense to read the file in chunks or even just grab a few bytes of the file header to check if it's a bencoded dictionary or not and then present the "Create new torrent" dialog if it's not a dictionary.

Firon Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 The next beta will refuse to load any files larger than 16MB to avoid this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcon4 Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 Perhaps a 4gb torrent made of 32k pieces?Haha, nah, nobody would be that stupid... plus uT would eat RAM like a bitch to handle a torrent like that... good move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 It already refuses to load torrents with more than 65535 pieces. Hell, the largest torrent I saw was only 1MB, and that's because it had like 14000 files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 There always was that 5+ MB (or was it 10+ MB? xD) torrent file that you never finished downloading, and so couldn't test Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
