Hello everybody,

I'm not sure if this was already addressed but I would like to see a small improvement in the next version of the program.

It would be great if you could implement a direct torrent file naming after the main folder of the torrent. uTorrent is doing this by default and it is pain to manually name a torrent every time you want to upload something.

Also, Connection Status icon on my client is always yellow although I have properly forwarded port and uploading/downloading (connecting to the peers) without a problem. What could be the cuase of this? A bug or something with the settings? My speed and connection number values are transferred from uTorrent where also everything worked properly (connection status always green).

I'm sorry for my bad english, I'm not a native speaker.

EDIT: Also one more issue. When uploading same files on two different trackers with different piece size, the client won't add second one on the torrent list automatically. It adds a new tracker information on the existing torrent. This is forbidden on private torrent sites I am using, so it would be great if this can be fixed in the future versions.

You can report this as a "wishlist" on our bugtracker. See below for address.

Also, Connection Status icon on my client is always yellow

Yellow = not known. If it's red, your settings are off, or you are behind NAT/firewall.
Green = 100% good/ok. But if you only see a yellow, that is fine just as well. Don't worry about it.

Your ISP most probably.

Is there any way I can check this for sure?

How can it be possible in uTorrent? It recognize them as two different torrents when you change the piece size of the second.

I found out later that somebody already pointed out the issue with cross seeding the same files on different trackers in 2012. No replies on the topic and nothing changed with further updates.

How can it be possible in uTorrent?

As  am often saying, ... ... uTorrent does NOT use libtorrent. They use their own protocol engine which is capable of all sort of bad behaviour.

Thank you for clarification.
