Tixati 3.43

Tixati is a free and easy to use BitTorrent client featuring detailed views of all seed, peer, and file transfer properties. Also included are powerful bandwidth charting and throttling capabilities, and a full DHT implementation. Tixati is one of the most advanced and flexible BitTorrent clients available. And unlike many other clients, Tixati contains NO SPYWARE, NO ADS, and NO GIMMICKS.

Tixati portable version is meant to run on a USB flash drive or other portable media. It stores all its configuration files in the same folder as the executable binary files, and all file paths are stored in a format relative to the program executable folder.

It is important you do not delete the “tixati_portable_mode.txt” file within the executables folder. This file is what triggers Tixati to run in portable mode. (The executable binaries are actually the same as the standard edition binaries.)

When running the portable edition from a USB flash drive, especially one that is formatted in FAT16/FAT32, you may experience some lag when initially loading a new transfer. This is because initializing and allocating large files on flash-based media consumes a greater amount of time and resources compared to a conventional hard-drive.

Tixati has the following features:
• detailed views of all aspects of the swarm, including peers, pieces, files, and trackers
• support for magnet links, so no need to download .torrent files if a simple magnet-link is available
• advanced bandwidth charting of overall traffic and per-transfer traffic, with separate classification of protocol and file bytes, and with separate classification of outbound traffic for trading and seeding
• highly flexible bandwidth throttling, including trading/seeding proportion adjustment and adjustable priority for individual transfers and peers
• bitfield graphs that show the completeness of all downloaded files, what pieces other peers have available, and the health of the overall swarm
• customizable event logging for each download, and individual event logs for all peers within the swarm
• expert local file management functions which allow you to move files to a different partition even while downloading is still in progress
• Improved DHT logging, more details in several error messages
• Added incoming query / response per second to DHT table status display
• Faster Search function, scans channel user profiles in much less time
• Fixed problems with file name parsing and date handling in RSS
• Faster and more accurate RSS filtering and episode number detection
• Several optimizations to global text processing functions, such as UTF-8 cleaning, line splitting, and token parsing
• Complete update of port-mapping UPNP/NAT-PMP engine, added PCP support, mapping over VPN support, and more
• Several refinements to default gateway detection on Windows / Android, which is used for port-mapping
• Support for IPv6 interface-scoped addresses, which is sometimes needed for IPv6 gateway detection and port mapping
• Full support for PCP port remapping, added backup zero-port query in case requested port is rejected
• New UPNP/NAT-PMP Monitor in Help > Diagnostics
• New reflected local port/location tracker that analyzes DHT replies to detect true port/location and NAT mapping type
• New TCP/UDP Ports monitor in Help > Diagnostics, with several statistic and information tabs, and a detailed event log
• Calculated/reflected local port is now used for port parameter in tracker queries and peer handshake
• Completely replaced tray icon functions in Linux, new SNI implementation is now the default with GSI backup
• Implemented full DBus-Menu server to be used by new SNI tray icon implementation
• Completely new Windows asynchronous file handling, now using IOCP model with several block-alignment optimizations
• Better handling of system network resets and interface down/up cycles
• Remember last option checkboxes when using Import/Export
• Raised length limit for torrent tracker remote failure messages to 120 from 64
• Fixed problems setting download location on a torrent before the meta info is resolved
• Several fixes and improvements to single and multi-line text edit controls
• Many other minor fixes throughout the user interface
• A major overhaul of the Android framework has also been done:
• Fixed file permission and locking problems when loading .torrent from web browsers
• Fixed problems with Z-ordering of modal / non-modal and popup windows
• Added option in Settings > UI > Behavior to continue running in tray when task removed from recents
• App can be closed by swiping away notification
• Rewrote IME interface, fixed several problems with auto-correct, on-screen keyboard visibility, and cursor positioning
• Added full tooltip implementation for Android hovering via mouse or other cursor device
• Full rewrite of popup menu widgets to better support hardware pointers and keyboard
