    June 1, 2016

    Tixati version 2.41 is now available.

    This is a major release that includes a new sound-notification feature, a major overhaul of the channels system, and many refinements and optimizations to the recently upgraded local file-handling core. There have also been many other improvements throughout the program:

    new Notification settings window accessible via Settings > User Interface > Behavior
    new channel shared data fast syncronization protocol that synchronizes all member shared links within minutes
    numerous optimizations in the handling of shared data in channels, especially for large collections
    auto-segmenting of channel info and member shared data, so minor changes or additions do not invalidate all data
    fixed problems with manual editing of channel shared data on Windows systems
    file/folder moves and renames will be retried after temporary errors such as file-access locking by other processes
    rigid sequencing of per-file move on complete, whole-transfer move on complete, file shell commands, and transfer shell commands
    final rename of incomplete-named files is better-incorporated into move on complete logic
    final rename of incomplete-named files will be retried after temporary errors, unless manually cancelled
    file open-linger times extended slightly when less than 20 handles are open (better compatibility with some AV scanners)
    fixed transfer startup grey-file problem when not using "error on missing files" setting
    checking now excludes freshly-allocated files or freshly-extended sections
    minor fix in piece prioritization to avoid selection of allocating yet existing pieces under rare conditions (eg. extending files)
    differentiated handling between Linux EACCESS error (hard-stop) and Windows (temporary error/soft-stop)
    additional checking and delays for seed ratio stop and seed count stop features, to prevent stopping in middle of move on complete
    minor fixes to file/xfer status while waiting to move
    a file complete, delete, reallocate cycle will now use incomplete naming correctly
    inner file-only move can be cancelled from transfer main menu
    better handling of inter-device moves when interrupted by a file rename

    a few minor fixes in configuration .dat saving routines
    a multi-file transfer that has only a single file selected will now correctly open the file by right-click or double-click main transfer
    double-click on transfer now initially defaults to Open File/Folder instead of Start/Stop
    other minor GUI fixes have been made in several areas of the program
    updated IP-location tables


    We are working on more new features for the channels and expect to have something very interesting ready soon.

    Thanks for using Tixati!

    Since the last release, several new features have been added, and there have been many important internal changes to core components that have greatly improved overall reliability and performance.

    A new bandwidth quota management system has been added. This is accessible from the Bandwidth view under the Advanced button menu. Quotas can be managed with an hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly cycle. Quota reset times, hours of effectiveness, and actions to take upon reaching limit are all fully configurable.

    The system that manages transfer local file locations, moving, and renaming has been completely re-engineered. Managing naming conflicts and merging of local files is much simpler, and confirmation prompts are used in a few key places.

    The Individual Tracker Settings system has had major upgrades and fixes. It is now much simpler for common uses, such as adding or removing trackers in newly loaded transfers.

    Files within a transfer can be prioritized in a numbered order. Select multiple files, right-click, and then select "Ordered" from the Priority sub-menu to use this new feature.

    Several other fixes and improvements have been made since the v2.31 release:

    multiple file completion shell commands for same extension/type now supported
    file handles are kept closed for a 6 second window after completion if using file completion shell commands
    file completion shell commands will execute even if transfer is immediately stopped by ratio/seed limit
    other minor fixes to prevent file completion shell commands from running when checking or moving
    prevent file name conflicts when saving multiple .torrent files from transfer view
    the incomplete piece / dnd file crust cache file purging system has been completely re-engineered and should use much less filesystem resources
    several fixes to the file checking system to prevent excessive hash-checking of partial downloads upon session startup and moves
    the main internal procedure scheduler has been completely replaced with a much better system that provides complex prioritization control
    extensive improvements to the win32 message loop idle bypass system and timer system
    the connection pacer has been completely replaced with a more reliable and much more performant system
    the internal precision timer component has been replaced with a more granular system that helps avoid processing holdups and backlogs
    numerous performance optimizations in peer connections and peer management
    several important performance optimizations in transfer local file handling routines
    more graceful error handling when too many files are open
    time limits for transfer local file open-lingering have been lowered to reduce average open handle count
    fixed problems with merging trackers that would cause groups to be erroneously merged
    added advanced individual tracker option "xfer_peerid:" that will change peer-id of transfers containing matching trackers
    added advanced individual tracker option "xfer_created_by:" that changes the "created by" field in saved .torrent files
    directly embedded tracker URL peerid/headers/cookie flags will have priority over settings in tracker individual options

    February 22, 2017

    Version 2.53 is now available. This is a major upgrade with several important fixes and improvements.

    All channels now have a fully decentralized forum that is available next to the Chat tab. Messages are organized into a threaded view, numerous layout options are available, and a full set of moderation controls allow the channel's operators to maintain their forum. Private messages between users can also be posted and are encrypted against the recipient's public key.

    Other aspects of channel operation have been greatly improved as well. Shared user data, such as links, text, and forum messages, are now automatically segmented with a much more intelligent algorithm, which minimizes the bandwidth used to propagate changes when a small amount of content is added to a large shared collection. We have also spent a lot of time and effort working on the channel connection to connection protocol so that synchronization of user data is much more reliable and efficient.

    There have also been numerous improvements throughout the core framework that underpins the entire program. We have made several fixes and improvements to our cross-platform native GUI toolkit, and have also made performance-critical optimizations in some of the core string-processing and encoding routines that are relied upon throughout the app.

    More improvements are on the way.

    Thanks for using Tixati!
