Recent releases
- 16 Mar 2005 21:30
Changes: This release should properly display on your screen regardless of the display resolution used. It also includes tweaks so that Torrent statistics will be printed when run in conjunction with BitTorrent 4.0.0.
- 01 Mar 2005 14:17
Changes: This release has been updated to work with the new database API in MythTV version 0.17. The exit button now functions like the left button (except that it will eventually exit the application).
- 08 Sep 2004 22:53
Changes: It is now possible to join torrents from any RSS feed without the need for special XML formatting in the feed. If the RSS entry has a torrent URL within it and no torrent enclosure XML in the actual feed, it will parse out the torrent URL and make it possible to join it. Air America Radio Archive was added to the list of torrent-enabled feeds. A segfault that prevented MythBrowser from being reconnected to the program was fixed.
- 22 Aug 2004 16:50
Changes: Full torrent upload and download statistics are now displayed and refreshed (each second). This includes percent complete, time remaining, rates of transfer, and total throughput. A 'status' option has been added to the accompanying /etc/init.d/bittorrent service.
- 20 Jul 2004 01:59
Changes: RSS entries are now fully scrollable so all text can be seen. They also properly format HTML (it doesn't display images yet) with yellow anchor links (which aren't quite clickable yet). Also added was bt.etee.org's RSS feed to the list of torrent-enabled blogs.
