Transmission 4.1.1

This is Transmission 4.1.1, a bugfix release.

4.1.0 was in development for over a year, so we've gotten a lot of good feedback, including actionable bug reports, since it was released three weeks ago. 4.1.1 fixes 20+ bugs and also has some performance improvements. All users are encouraged to upgrade to this version.

This progress was possible because of good bug reports and performance logs reported by users. Thanks, and keep them coming!

Transmission 4.1.0-beta.1

This is the first beta for 4.1.0! It's been in development in parallel with the 4.0.x bugfix series since February 2023's release of 4.0.0 and has major code changes relative to 4.0.x.

What's New in 4.1.0-beta.1

Highlights

  • Added optional sequential downloading. (#4795)
  • Added the option preferred-transport to settings.json, so that users can choose their preference between µTP and TCP. (#5939)
  • Improved µTP download performance. (#6508)
  • Added support for IPv6 and dual-stack UDP trackers. (#6687)
  • Fixed 4.0.6 bug where Transmission might spam HTTP tracker announces. (#7086)

All Platforms

  • Added ability to cache IP addresses used in global communications, and use it to fix UDP6 warning log spam. (#5329, #5510)
  • Added support for sending an ipv4 parameter during the Extension Protocol handshake. (#5643)
  • Setting "cache-size-mb": 0 in settings.json now disables the disk write cache. (#5668)
  • Improved libtransmission code to use less CPU and RAM. (#5801)
  • Transmission now checks if local files exists after setting torrent location. (#5978)
  • Improved handling of plaintext and MSE handshakes. (#6025)
  • If a torrent contains empty (zero byte) files, create them when starting the torrent. (#6232)
  • Improved DHT performance. (#6569, #6695)
  • Added advanced sleep-per-seconds-during-verify setting to settings.json. (#6572)
  • Improved µTP download performance. (#6586)
  • Added support for IPv6 Local Peer Discovery. (#6700)
  • Allow port forwarding state to automatically recover from error. (#6718)
  • Save upload/download queue order between sessions. (#6753)

  • Fixed crash in tr_peerMgrPeerStats(). (#5279)
  • Fixed bug in sending torrent metadata to peers. (#5460)
  • Avoid unnecessary heap memory allocations. (#5519, #5520, #5522, #5527, #5540, #5649, #5666, #5672, #5676, #5720, #5722, #5725, #5726, #5768, #5788, #5830)

  • Fixed locale errors that broke number rounding when displaying statistics, e.g. upload / download ratios. (#5587)
  • In RPC responses, change the default sort order of torrents to match Transmission 3.00. (#5604)
  • Improved handling of multiple connections from the same IP address. (#5619)
  • Always use a fixed-length key query in tracker announces. This isn't required by the spec, but some trackers rely on that fixed length because it's common practice by other BitTorrent clients. (#5652)
  • Fixed minor performance bug that caused disk writes to be made in smaller batches than intended. (#5671)
  • Fixed potential Windows crash when getstdhandle() returns NULL. (#5675)
