VERSIONS .71 ---> .75


Recommended Posts

For versions .76 and above, make a new topic in bit comet client support. Besure to include as much info as possible and fully describe your problem.

Although these new versions are still considered "less then stable", we do have many members using them without issue.

Regarding version .71-.75, Please either install .70, or if you want to use the new client, then get the latest version.

Our two latest versions .71 and .72 have some serious issues (we are sorry).

Please download our latest STABLE release (version .70)

http://www.bitcomet.com/doc/download.htm

If you still feel you must post a question regarding these versions, do so here. I however will not be responding to these questions (personally).

Thank you for taking the time to read this,

Sincerely,

Suspect

Message to all Users from BitComet Team:

recently installed v.7.0, but this problem occured some time before (using 6.0):

any torrents I download now become inactive unless I'm physically at the computer doing something (!?)

i.e., when I 'wake' the computer up, torrents then try to 'reconnect', but then still the speed is much slower than b4.

a couple of months ago this didnt happen....I installed 7.0 thinking it would fix the problem but no change :(

This topic is NOT for requesting help with any STABLE versions. Please make a new topic regarding any version Prior to .71

Although your question has been answered, your system is going into standby mode, you will need to disable that for download to continue. You can use (monitor power down), but not cpu or hard drive.

ps. Until I receive instructions from admin, I will not (personally) be supporting versions .71 and .72, but you are welcome to post your questions here, or reply to them.

Your telling me. What the h*** is up with .73?

I am on a 512 connection, so I set my download limit to half my bandwidth which is 26 KB/S, so I can comfortably surf at the same time, Bitcomet 7.3 then goes nuts and maxes out to 52 KB/S!

Launching new downloads causes it to crash, running a video preview causes it to crash, why would BitComet release the severly unstable version, this is not open source, FIX IT!!! :angry:

Yeah BitComet 0.73 initially wants to install in Chinese for me too. Even when I select English, and it installs in English, it still wants me to download the Chinese language pack. That's kind of funny.

0.73 also crashes on me in a similar manner as every build between 0.64'n 0.69 and 0.71'n 0.72. I sent in the crash reports hope you got 'em and I hope they help.

I don't drink coffee but I'll keep my cool anyway. BitComet is my favorite client, crashes and all. And 0.70 is stable as a rock for me. Now if the >16's would just go away... .

Actually I would like to ask how to make the "would you like the new features of the bitcomet 0.73 by visting www.bitcomet.com" pop-up to keep comming up everytime I open bitcomet, and also on my listen port it keeps setting itself back to 6882 everytime I open bitcomet, and 50% of the time when the port is on 6882 my files that I'm downloading via bittorrent gets corrupted, so I have to set it to "64450" port everytime and I find it quite annoying.

Don't tell me to download 0.70 stable version because I tried all the versions and they all have the same problem.

This sounds like a problem with something on your computer not allowing you to save the changes you have made.

I suggest you log on as admin (if not already), and make the port change, and any other settings. Also, if you have any security, or privacy software running that requires users to log in, this may stop you from making changes to system files.

If you are running on a beta version of windows vista, I would suggest you install bit comet to an "unprotected" portion of the harddrive, as vista seems to be extremely limited to what can be viewed, or edited in the program files folder.

So it's just my problem? :(

Do any of you keep having the popup message keep popping up at you?

If you are unable to save changes like port settings on a stable version, then this is a problem with your computers settings, not with bit comet.

What version of windows are you using? and have you tried to log in as admin and make the changes?

Suspect

EDIT: It is possible your system has the bitcomet.xml file set as "read only". Look for it and "right click" and remove the read only attribute.

Hey, ok well on my old computer which i used up until 3 days ago, i had bitcomet 0.70 installed and most of my download speeds varied from 15kbps to 100kbps. My average download speed was about 30kbps, something like that. However, now i have a brand new computer (a better one in almost every way) and i have installed the latest version of bitcomet (0.73) on.

My problem is that now my download speed rarely goes faster than 10kbps. I dont understand why...is it the computer? is it the fact that i use bitcomet 0.73 instead of 0.70 now? its not that im downloading a file with a lot less seeders or whatever, i usually only download torrents with green bars, not orange or red.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Oh and my upload speed has not been affected, i still upload at about 20-30kbps.

As a matter of fact, the same thing is happening to me too!

First it was the 'Do you want to upgrade to .70?' popup that kept coming even though I checked the box saying I didn't want to see the message again, and then when I upgraded (partly just to get rid of that popup) it now keeps asking if I want to visit BitComet.com to see the new features.

My bitcomet.xml file is not set read-only. There is only one account on my computer, and has admin privileges to my knowledge. Furthermore, I have an up-to-date Norton Antivirus with a valid subscription as well as ZoneAlarm with the Microsoft firewall disabled.
