Transmission 1.74 Released!

[bozo_z_clown]

Fired up 1.74 and now I'm seeding again. 1.73 hadn't sent a byte for a week or so.

Quicklook works fine here.

+1 happy camper.

Neodomi's question as to why Remove All Files was eliminated from this version still has not been answered.

I am very annoyed by this missing function and came to the forum seeking an answer, but there is no answer.

If you remove just the torrent file or just the data file, upon restart the torrent gets added right back to the list and begins downloading again. If you have Trans. set to display the "Adding Transfer" options window (as I do), then that window pops up when Trans. is started.

If you click Remove From List, the torrent is removed from the list and there's no way to remove the data file, and the torrent will resume upon restart.
If you click Remove Data File, the file is removed from the list and the file is removed from /Users/***/Library/Application\ Support/Transmission/Torrents, but the torrent will still resume upon restart because the torrent file is still there (if Auto Add is enabled).

So the only way now to avoid the torrent restarting automatically, is to manually remove the torrent file and the resume torrent file in the Finder, or remove the resume torrent file and disable the Auto Add function. What a waste of time!


I'm going back to v1.73; I didn't see anything wrong with it.

I already answered it: http://forum.transmissionbt.com/viewtop ... 470#p39912

Just set the app to delete the torrent file when adding.

HERE, HERE!!!
I thought I'd get on the forums and find a quick easy answer. However, I think I'm going to have to revert back to previous versions as well. It was the best release by far.

I absolutely agree. I came here looking for clues to another issue with 1.74, and realized Delete All Files was gone. I also used it every day. It was a very simple, straightforward way to remove the data and torrent file in one swoop. It was the easiest way to trash torrent files which were often named counterintuitively. I can't for the life of me figure out why anyone thought this feature would be up for deletion.

Has 1.74 been released to the launchpad server yet? I tried an apt-get upgrade transmission and it didn't do any updating.

It should be noted that I'm extremely new to linux and am running a headless server. Any help on upgrading would be appreciated. I follow the instructions in this thread, http://forum.transmissionbt.com/viewtop ... =13&t=5604 but no joy. I'm pretty sure that when I installed it the first time I just did an apt-get install transmission, but when I just went to edit the /etc/apt/sources.list as per the previous thread's instructions, transmission wasn't listed. Am I way too lost?

There's nothing I can really do about that - it's controlled by Apple's code.

Odd, used to work for me in previous versions!

Problem seems to be at my end then..(good to know though).

i have just got the new os x snow leopard for mac

do you think transmission is better than vuze????

[Lorre]

Am I the only one who suffers from an extremely sluggish GUI since updating to 1.74 under Leopard? I have an Aug '07 Alu iMac so Transmission runs as a 64 bit process, and the torrents all work fine, but the GUI is very choppy and slow. Scrolling, quicklook, resizing, window focus etc. All act as if I'm running this on a Pentium 1 MMX

It's only the main window btw, the inspectors work just fine as always.

Please return back REMOVE ALL FILES. It is very convenience function.

[furrythugs]

I'm just another guy who wants Remove All Files back. It's a mess w/o this feature, very inconvenient to remove files now. grrrr

[livings124]

The people that want the feature back: why not set Transmission to delete the file when adding the transfer - why do you need it after (and if you do need it, why don't you just use the menu item in the File menu)? I've yet to hear an argument of why it should be kept.

I for one did not at first understand/realize about setting Transmission to delete the file when adding the transfer. Now that I do, all's good. Thanks for the advisory and for this great product.
