v5.0-stable

ruTorrent v5.0 Mobile

After four long months of development, we are pleased to announce that ruTorrent v5.0 Mobile is now stable! This is a rewrite of the web client using the bootstrap wrapper to support mobile devices. Special thanks to @jevenski and all our other contributors!

Our main goal with this major version release was to make ruTorrent usable on mobile devices. The previous major version had design flaws, that did not permit mobile usage. Our next v5.1 development cycle will address ease of use to make operation easier!

Special thanks to our Beta Testers @Airman8 @koblack @jevenski @stickz! We conducted a 10 day accelerated beta development cycle, where 20 plus bugs were eliminated from the web client. This will avoid numerous hotfixes and allow platforms to deploy right away!

Mobile Device Changes

1. Reworked the status bar to display less information to fit on smaller screens.
2. Hide the category list with a toggle feature in the top left corner to display it.
3. Reworked settings menu with flexible layouts to fit on smaller screens.
4. Reworked all dialogs with flexible layouts to fit on smaller screens.
5. Basic fixes for torrent information tabs to prevent overflowing.
6. Added a toggle feature to display the menu controls.
   • Sub menus will be improved in v5.1.

Feature Changes

1. A new directory search feature was added to find files and folders faster. Simply start typing and results will be filtered!
2. A new plugin dump was added to provide additional information about torrent files. It requires an external program that can be found here: https://github.com/TheGoblinHero/dumptorrent
3. Extratio no longer requires the throttle plugin to operate. This means platforms which currently cannot support throttle for throughput reasons can re-enable the plugin! This will provide useful extended ratio functionality to users!
4. Throttle throughput problems have been addressed in the latest release of rTorrent. Once that becomes stable, we will push a hotfix with version detection to ruTorrent v5. It will support the plugin with up to 33 gigabit speeds, to eliminate the throughput barrier!
5. The iPad plugin now only operates on the Safari web browser. It was replaced by full support for mobile devices in ruTorrent v5. Safari does not support contextmenu, therefore will need to keep it around for a little bit longer.

Full Changelog: v4.3.7...v5.0-beta1

v4.3.7-hotfix

ruTorrent v4.3.7

This hotfix resolves a regression introduced in v4.1 with automatic updating of RSS feeds. It also contains minor translation corrections.

What's Changed

• Fix automatic updating of RSS feeds by @stickz in edb429c
• Minor PT-pt translation corrections by @Frias in #2693
• Update french by @Machou in #2702

Full Changelog: v4.3.6...v4.3.7

v4.3.6-hotfix

ruTorrent v4.3.6

This hotfix resolves a long standing bug with hardlinks on the autotools plugin. It's highly recommended to upgrade. If a hardlink already exists (like if a torrent is downloaded twice for instance), it would copy a duplicate of the file somewhere else on the hard drive. This was due to a syntax error with the case statement, causing a file copy operation to intendedly be executed.

What's Changed

• Fix autotools plugin when hardlink already existst by @stickz in 6ecbf02

Full Changelog: v4.3.5...v4.3.6

v4.3.5-hotfix

ruTorrent v4.3.5

This hotfix increases the height of the file browser window to 300 pixels, when creating torrent files. It reduces the amount of scrolling required. Previously, the height was too small with hundreds of files. This made creating torrents more difficult.

We are redoing the add torrent dialog in the next major/minor release of ruTorrent. The feature is implanted now to increase that height as well. It is required to rework the parent object. We do not intend to do this in a patch release for stability reasons.

What's Changed

• Increase height of torrent creator file browser by @stickz in 899a553
