Re: HD goes to 100% usage when downloads start

... I mean, every torrent client has 2 options: 1) pre-allocate disk space (this is NOT the default) 2) pre-allocate disk space I'd just recommend limiting your download speed in the client so the HDD doesn't get so much data to write out, and PrimoCache is also a nice program that can help. Mind y...

Re: Chitter Chatter

It's a classic book by Orwell nevertheless. Yeah but reading is "hard". Physical books: I don't like physical books because I can't read them at dim light, I have to take good care of them, they can be physically destroyed, they can be lost, etc. It's just very tedious and not many can wit...

Re: Muffled sound

I only had this like decades ago when the sound drivers were so bad.
Try updating your sound driver. Usually an updated driver is available from the motherboard's website.

Like just google for example: ASUS X670E support
And it pops up.

Re: Private torrent

Check on the left-sidebar if you have the proper categories/tags selected. Maybe you are just "filtering" them out.

Re: Dimeadozen protocol error 4

Hmm the website / tracker software won't affect your seeding. Seeding is just hard on some sites. Like we don't discuss piracy here but I've seen sites before (now defunct) where I had 1000+ torrents running and I could not seed up like 1GB after weeks. If it's one of those sites, I'd recommend gett...

You won't find any up-to-date client for XP. Even Windows 7 is end-of-life now.
I'd recommend using an old uTorrent version. That's the only thing that'd be accepted I think. Maybe 1.6.1? Or even older?

Re: PIA VPN Qbittorrent Binding

If you can't find the interface, go into PIA's client and change the Protocol. OpenVPN for example uses a separate interface, while Wireguard does not. Just switch around the protocols and see if it pops up. Make sure to restart qBittorrent between tries. The protocol should not affect your speeds. ...

Jackett is not needed so to speak but here is the page for it:

Re: The best general tracker

Oh yeah I might have gotten confused right after OP. As "general" I meant public trackers you can just add to any torrent. For a general purpose tracker, if we include private ones too, I'd say IPTorrents is definitely nice. But the staff, ugh. I had an issue once and oh my God it was a pa...

Re: Seems to think I'm running on Windows 8 and won't install.

The Windows Store version is fake, be careful.

Are you running a regular Windows 10 Pro? LTSC? LTSC IOT?

Re: Global Tracker Non-Working Removal Option Feature

I see what you mean but sometimes they start working again, so it's kinda hard. Don't worry about them, it won't slow down anything or cause any issues.

Re: Password - Can't log in with random password

I never ran qB in Docker, but...
- can't you just set a password in the config file and never mess with the random password?
- you can also use the static qb-nox build instead of Docker: https://github.com/userdocs/qbittorrent-nox-static

Re: Download speed is slow when i look at speedtest

They are just different type of measurements. You have 70 megabits per second. (you pay for that much) But in reality, you have around 100 megabits per second (see the speedtest and Windows) But qBittorrent uses a different value. It uses mega bytes per second. Your 100mbps of speed is around ~10MB/...
