Technobob Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Finally I can click a .torrent file and it opens Azureus and loads the file Edit: It's now a stable release so I update the link and yes it's a Universal Binary OSX: Open .torrent files into Azureus via Finder/Desktop/etc. 'Do not download' files handled more consistently with respect to download completion. Renaming of a download directories. Moving of data files on torrent removal from Azureus. Signed updates and plugins for improved security. Interface improvements - more information: date added, idle times, new info view, file piece view; more per-torrent options. Debug information generator. More in the changelog.

Technobob Posted August 18, 2006 Author Share Posted August 18, 2006 I have 6 active torrents and it's using 120mb so it's still a RAM hog It does not bother me too much I have 1GB and it's not my main system, the computer that Azureus is running on is just a downloader/file server.

Technobob Posted August 21, 2006 Author Share Posted August 21, 2006 Looks like it has a bug in it for me my CPU usage is now 30% with only one torrent open going back to my older build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
domino Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Sorry mate. I can't confirm. I use transmission. An it looks like the new feature isnt true for you? I need to wait and see other comments before i make a conclusion . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xtraa Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Running smooth and slick here, no performance probs. Maybe a buggy plugin, @technobob? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technobob Posted August 22, 2006 Author Share Posted August 22, 2006 It maybe SafePeer it's the only added plug-in, I gave up in trying to figure out PeerGuardian. I will try again without SafePeer when a couple puplic torrents are finished. I just wish uTorrent would make a OSX version, I'm thinking about going back to winblows just to go back to uTorrent. I don't like Transmission it's too basic and is banned on many private trackers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
domino Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 You might be able to run uTorrent with wine, if you know wht I mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technobob Posted August 22, 2006 Author Share Posted August 22, 2006 I tried that but one of the features that I need thats both in Azureus and uTorrent does not work in wine. I use autoimport torrents from folder, I have a dedicated computer for my downloads. I download the torrents on my laptop then drop them on a shortcut (alias) to the import folder then they load automatically on the dedicated computer. I'm downloading JaS's 10.4.7 DVD and Vista beta 2 build 5472 and will reinstall my system and see if the problem is fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xtraa Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Yes, or as an alternative: I have uploaded my Azureus here, it is also the latest beta, but I had a mdified version and just replaced the jar. You can download it and give it a try, maybe that will fix your problems. (Don't forget to sudo chown -R and chmod -R it) If it is still slow, then it has to be something within your system.

Technobob Posted August 22, 2006 Author Share Posted August 22, 2006 @xtraa I tried your version and CPU usage is better, I will see how 2.5.0.0 is after a reinstall of the OS later in the week @domino I'm not a Linux fan but thanks for the suggestion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technobob Posted August 23, 2006 Author Share Posted August 23, 2006 After installing JaS's new 10.4.7 DVD and using the offical release of 2.5.0.0 my CPU usage is back to normal. Now I just need to repair my local network problem with SMB & AFP http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...c=25536&hl= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swad Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 I tried the beta but wasn't too impressed. Still sluggish here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technobob Posted August 23, 2006 Author Share Posted August 23, 2006 2.5.0.0 is not beta it's a stable release I don't have any sluggish issues it's running about the same as it does in winblows but it's no uTorrent Edit: I changed to the subject seeing 2.5.0.0 is now a stable release and no longer beta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiaboliK Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 the only problem i have with the 2.5 version is that i cannot save to a diff partition/HD other than my desktop, if i try anyother drive or partition it says a error trying to make file.
