Transmission 4.0 Upgrade is Here After Two Years
|
|||
|
======
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
BitTorrent client Transmission 4.0 release is here with much-needed feature upgrades and improvements.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
![Transmission 4.0 Upgrade is Here After Two Years][1]
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
BitTorrent is a popular alternative to HTTP to share or download files over the internet. You may know that numerous BitTorrent clients are available with different features and configurations.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
**Transmission** is one such BitTorrent client that is open-source and lightweight.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The app's latest release arrives nearly two years after its last stable release. While no new releases were seen during this time, the project was in active development.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Transmission 4.0: What's New?
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The new release brings in a load of new features and improvements. This includes IPv6 blocking, BitTorrent v2 support, a revamped web client, and many more.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Some of the significant highlights are mentioned below.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### Support for BitTorrent v2 and Hybrid Torrent
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
BitTorrent v2 is a newer version of the existing BitTorrent protocol, bringing in some helpful technical advancements.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
On the other hand, hybrid torrents ensure backward compatibility with the older v1 torrents.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Do note that this release only allows using v2 and hybrid torrents. To be able to create v2 and hybrid torrents, you need to wait for the next release.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### Use of default trackers
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Users should now find it easier to announce or request public torrents by setting up default trackers.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### IPv6 blocklists
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Support for IPv6 blocking is now included.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This is useful if you're experiencing network problems and want to use IPv4 by default.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In some cases, VPN users might also prefer this feature since many VPN servers may not flawlessly support IPv6, which may lead to data leaks.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### New Privacy-Friendly Feature
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Users sometimes prefer not to include user-identifying or relevant information when creating torrents.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
There's a new option added precisely for this purpose that excludes such details.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### 🛠️Other Changes and Improvements
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Apart from the changes listed above, there are loads of refinements considering that they have been preparing it for more than a year now!
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Some of the noteworthy betterment include:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- **Better resource efficiency**
|
|||
|
- **Migration of code from C to C++**
|
|||
|
- **Ability to specify piece size when creating new torrents**
|
|||
|
- **Support for Qt 6**
|
|||
|
- **GTK client based on GTKMM**
|
|||
|
- **Better Web client UI, including support for mobile screens**
|
|||
|
- **macOS Apple silicon support**
|
|||
