ruTorrent v4.3.9

This is a critical hotfix. It's highly recommended to upgrade. It resolves web client breakage when a plugin holding a table sort is disabled and the page is refreshed. It also fixes the links for IMDb and MetaCritic on the lookat plugin, so they can actually be used!

Long Term Support for Version 4 (Super Stable)

We intend to offer long term support release for ruTorrent v4, for as long as project resources permit. The intention is to upgrade as many platforms as possible in preparation for the ruTorrent v5 to one day become the universal version. We recognize that major releases with API breakage can not be resolved overnight. As a result, we are offering this intermediary option that is now considered super 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.
