Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

  1. upload-ratio bar instead of a number.

    A empty bar files up to 1

    When the number is greater than one the bar can be cut in two half's to represent an upload ratio of 2. cut up in three thirds to represent a ratio of 3 and so on.

    • Better comment box

      When I delete bad movie files with the NicePlayer SPAM embed I always leave a comment. However it took me forever to figure out where the comment box was. You need to change "Ratings" to "Comment" and when someone deletes a file you need to open up the already existing comment box in order to draw the eye to that location so people know where it is. Why bother with a special second box? That is just confusing. This will generate way more comments. Also, I suggest that you make the comment box the default tab that opens first and…

        • Include a per-file hash in .torrent files created by uTorrent

          Some torrent clients support putting hashes of individual files into .torrent files they create. I consider this a very nice feature, but uTorrent as one of the most popular programs for creating .torrent files doesn't include them, so most torrents are lacking those hashes.

          This has been requested in several other places, like the closed forums at http://forum.bittorrent.org/index.php. It would also make several other feature requests feasible, that are currently not possible thanks to pieces crossing file boundaries and hashes depending on the piece size.

          A description of the necessary changes to .torrent files:
          http://wiki.depthstrike.com/index.php/P2P:Protocol:Specifications:Optional_Hashes

          Concerning the choice of…

          • Simple toggle between pause and resume

            I usually run my uTorrent at full speed but then I need to pause it if I need to do something else that requires a lot of badwith, but when I'm finished I sometimes forget to resume. I can think of three ways to combat this problem. 1. A desktop widget that is always visible and toggles between pause and resume with a single click. 2. Option to automatically resume downloads when monitor goes to sleep/after x minutes of inactivity. 3. An option on the right click menu to pause for 1/3/5 minutes/hours, preferably user-defined intervals.

            • per session "downloaded in this session" column

              We can see how much utorrent downloaded since started in the status bar. It shows total downloaded in a session.

              I am suggesting a column beside "downloaded" column showing per torrent downloads. So, if status bar shows 1.5gb of download, then the column will show how much each torrent downloaded of this data.

              • 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.

                  I like some of the ads featured in the bottom left of uTorrent, there should be a button to show a new ad, so I can quickly see more torrent suggestions

                  • 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.

                    • uTorrent overlay plugin. -See your Downlaod Speed all the time

                      A little overlay display which shows you the current file downloading and speed while you are changing windows.
                      ( Like Teamspeak overlays/mumble overlays)

                      Example: You can see at the bottom of your screen the downloading file speed while you are surfing on the internet or doing another things on your PC. (Disable when an application gets into full screen like games/movies)

                      • Why not install in program files for all users?!

                        Why not install in program files? Why do not you give the user a choice?!! I installed the program as administrator, but other accounts of this program and do not install fails. Dialog appears "downloading translation", next request an administrator rights (I enter admin password and click "yes"), and then nothing happens.
                        Please make it back, or provide the user's choice (expert installation).
                        I read the FAQ, but I'm not comfortable every time install it manually.

                          • Do a stable sort when sorting torrents by a different column.

                            Example: If I first sort by date added, then sort by status, torrents with the same status should remain sorted by date added.

                              I don't use labels, so it would be great not to select download folder each time from new, but see the list of last used folders for downloads or see the list of favourite folders.

                                  The new stop when using (or go when not!) is great, but I think it needs a quick toggle on the status bar.

                                    • Use color combinations with more contrast so that older people can read highlighted text in the application.

                                      It seems likely to me that the program is being developed by young people with great eyesight but we older people are having a hard time keeping up with you. When I highlight an item it changes from black text on white to white text on not very dark blue and I can't read it. Please test the color combinations more with older people.

                                      Thanks,
                                      Barry

                                      • Status: Stalled. Flag torrents with file availability less than 1. Especially if you have it fully downloaded.

                                        There are some stalled torrents which claim to have seeds within the swarm but those seeds are not presently seeding. And file availability is below 1.

                                        If you are in a situation where you are a seed in a swarm which does not have a complete copy between all the members of that swarm, without you. Your torrent status should change colors to cyan or something, to notify you.

                                        Such as, when you have an otherwise completed torrent and still count as a seeder but the torrent is stalled because there's only 96.6% of the torrent in existence elsewhere in…

                                        • Change torrent name to folder name

                                          I always change folder name when I download something and I want an option so torrent name automatically will change as well.
