Adding a list of changes/fixes per release would be nice

Just wait for an "official" release. It will have the changes listed here->http://qbittorrent.sourceforge.net/news.php
I won't publish any changes for builds from git master. A rough changelog would be the git log, found here->https://gitorious.org/qbittorrent/qbitt ... its/master

sledge, are you going to compile other RC builds of 2.9.0 for Windows as well? I see RC2 is available now.

I'm also getting another I/O error with RC1 "The parameter is incorrect."

Im also gettin random I/O errors with the RC1 but it depends on which torrents I start to download. Most of the time it downloads fine but somehow with few torrents its causes I/O errors like you mention it s4nder. And the torrents are all english, no asian characters or such. It might be fixed with RC2 .

In my case the torrent with the I/O error was a huge 18 GB file. Also, three of my completed torrents start off in a paused state every time I launch the program. They seed fine after resuming them. Strange.

The 2.9.0 release is near.

As for the random I/O errors, please open a bug report on launchpad, describing the situation-> When do you get it? Totally randomly? etc etc and anything else that may help. Also copy-paste the exact message from the "execution log"(torrent name not necessary). Any discussion on this bug should occur on launchpad where info can be gathered per topic centrally. This isn't a support thread.

Finally there is v2.9.0 with interesting features and fixes, can't wait for your build already sledge .

I just uploaded it to sf. Give it some time to propagate through the mirrors and it should pop up while running qbt 2.8.5. (or go to the site and download it )

I also enabled openssl in qt so now you can have even more security options in "preferences->Webui"

I spotted some regressions in my build. I have corrected the code and I am rebuilding now. I deleted the old build from sf, hopefully no one downloaded it.

I'm not downloaded it yet and i'm waiting for your proper release

I just uploaded the correct version. It should be ok to download it now.

I just downloaded and installed your latest 2.9.0 release. Currently i have no downloads, only seeds. It started to seed immediately with the maximum speed, but also i received an I/O error saying "The parameter is incorect". I started check on this torrent and received the same error during the check.
I rolled back to 2.8.5. and received the same error  I never had problems with 2.8.5. But after restart of the PC 2.8.5 finalized the torrent check and now it's OK, no more I/O errors.
I will stay with 2.8.5.
By the way i noticed that 2.9.0 have smaller installation exe-file - 5.5 MB. The previous versions are about 7 MB.

@ironcross What os do you use? Could you use more the 2.9.0? Does the I/O error appear when downloading a torrent and not seeding it?

The size is smaller because I link every lib statically. If you look at qbt's program files, you'll see only one executable.

The OS is Win 7 Pro SP1 32-bit.
I will try 2.9.0. again...

Same error at the same torrent again. Restarted the PC - no change. Deleted the torrent file, but no downloaded data, and then downloaded the torrent file again to start checking - same error. Deleted all - the torrent file and the downloaded data, started downloading again - same error at the beginning. Delete all again, started downloading from other tracker - same error again.

Thanks sledge, as ironcross mentions it I got the same I/O error reports. Reverting back and rechecking the file fixes the issue but after installing v2.9.0 again the error pops up after few seconds. Imma try few more things, if something changes ill report here .
