The New Improvements of uTorrent 2.0 (Final)

[ceo54]

The dev team at utorrent.com has proclaimed the release of a new final uTorrent 2.0 version. It is the first stable (non-RC, non-beta) release from the time of uTorrent v2.0 development which began again in August. The most popular BitTorrent client in the world has suffered some important changes; including UDP tracker support & auto-uTP, transfer cap settings, an enhanced setup guide, new shiny skin and bandwidth management.



“Setup Guide” is improved now
If you know good the uTorrent’s Speed Guide (uTorrent > Preferences > Speed Guide), of 2.0 version, now it’s called the "Setup Guide". It has been reconstructed for being much easier for users and it includes a built-in speed test as well. More prime installations were made and it mechanically scales settings for high-upload connections, in addition to keeping automatic port mapping by default



uTP/UDP Settings are available
Earlier RC and beta uTorrent 2.0 versions have this set on by default, however for the previous final v1.8.5 users would need to manually available uTP/UDP tracker support., Both incoming & outgoing (TCP/uTP) connections in uTorrent 2.0 are now available. By these means the bt.transp_disposition value is automatically put to the most favorable "15". More information about values of these protocols may be seen at this link.



Transfer Cap Settings
Now there is a new "Transfer Cap" tab in uTorrent 2.0. This uTorrent’s forums extract says about it, "the settings of transfer cap were attached for various customers who have ISP-mandated caps on how much data they can upload /download per month. At the present time you are able to track the usage in MB and organize µTorrent to stop torrenting if the limit is exceeded. At this time, you can arrange the data cap, the time interval and whether it should stop based just on upload, download, or both."



As well the new trait "Enable Bandwidth Management" is included as found in Preferences > BitTorrent. If you desire to view the Transfer Cap as a graph, you just should click the Speed tab in the main interface of uTorrent and choose "Transfer Cap" from the dropdown menu:

That transfer cap could be extremely useful for all other fellow comcast users.

I'm going to cap my torrent machine at 200gb a month so they don't shut down my service lol.
I usually just keep track by keeping rough estimates. I have been doing most of my seeding off my seedbox recently anyway though...

UT2 has to many flaws for for private trackers,great for public types
UTP seems to favor seed to it own and other clients are lucky to connect to it.This for the fairness of sharing and keeping a ratio on a private site will cause issues.Isp will love this client as it will be able to traffic bandwidth if need in high end isp loads.
Big thumbs down for me

Someone quoted a BitMeTV announcement stating the same in my board - care to show some evidence of that?
