  1. remove force start from streaming

    If I have more than one torrents queued, and I want to stream a single torrent, it goes to "force start" state and another one starts downloading, which is not the desired behaviour.

      • Show the % of a torrent's creation in Create New Torrent

        Let's say when adding a torrent that's very large (40GB or so), the bar at the bottom doesn't give a very good indication of how much has been created.

        So maybe showing a % of creation in the titlebar or to the side would be useful.

            • Hard-drive serial to find new drive letter

              If you plug out External Hard-drive and plug in another device, which replaces your drive letter. Then you plug the External Hard-drive back in, it will not find the "correct" hard-drive automatically. Solution could be: Save hard-drive serial when adding new torrent. Then automatically search through all Hard-drives serials to find the correct one when new device is inserted.

              • shell extension to create a torrent

                A feature to allow to to create a new torrent by simply right clicking on a file, group of files, or folder. Much easier than browsing through uTorrent menus.

                • Option to disable the opening of uTorrent in a new RDP Session

                  Whenever a new session of Windows is opened for the same user, uTorrent is set to autostart, but it already is running within the other session. So if it could check for running session on same user account, and not open if found.

                    • UPnP: upgrade to IGD V 2.0

                      Since the release 2.0 of the specification, it is encouraged to use the AddAnyPortMapping() action instead
                      of AddPortMapping(). This greatly expands the capabilities of equipment

                        If I wasn´t came to the website, I don´t even know about the Idea´s bank.

                        Maybe we just can vote about any idea directly on the UI

                        • auto restart µTorrent

                          It is better to add an auto restart function when user change the language. It can be a dialog box offering to auto restart µTorrent.

                              • Use IPv6 in addition to IPv4 in WebUI

                                Listen on IPv6 address in addition to IPv4 in WebUI, this will eliminate initial delay in browsers supporting IPv6 while it switches from 6 to 4.
                                Currently if I try to open WebUI using computer name rather that IP (like MyServer:8080/gui) browser (in my case chrome) at first tries to resolve MyServer to IPv6 address (given it's supported by OS, which it is). It obviously fails as uTorrent does not listen on 8080 with IPv6 address. Only after about 30 seconds browser switches to IPv4 and displays authentication dialog.

                                  • Make plus and minus key adjust selected file priority

                                    Have the plus and minus keys raise and lower, respectively, the selected file's priority.
                                    Also, Pieces tab should show priority level of file it belongs to. ie "High (13)" instead of just "High"

                                    • Assign queue number.

                                      Rather than just moving torrents up and down the queue we should be able to specify the queue number, it would be so much easier to move a new torrent higher in queue.

                                      • Fix auto column resizing (double click column handle) for pieces

                                        The pieces column under files tab of torrent resizes tiny, no doubt because it's a special case i.e. doesn't contain text to resize for. Would be good if you could add a handler to only resize it to something in particular automatically when double clicking the resize handle.

                                        • Add ability to define IP ranges treated as local

                                          In uTorrent in addition to speed limiter there's a great feature not to limit speed for local peers - such as peers from 10.0.0.0/8, 192.168.0.0/16 etc ranges. But many ISPs give their subscribers IP addresses from non-local IP ranges, while still maintaining really fast bandwidth with LAN speed (about 100MBit/s) between them.
                                          So it would be nice to be able to select your own IP ranges, that will be treaten as local ranges, thus not being affected with speed limiter.
                                          Currently where's no such option: we can limit EVERYTHING (actual external peers which should be limited + local peers from…
