Possible Questions
Q: How can I update when a new version is released?
A: Each time a new version is released, I will create a post/reply on this thread. To update on Windows, run the installer of the new version, and on macOS or Linux, you just replace the old executable with the new one. Your preferences will be kept.
Q: I found a bug, where do I report it?
A: You can report bugs by leaving a comment on this thread. Please make sure to include info such as: operating system, GUU version and how the bug was discovered
Q: How do I connect qBitTorrent with GUU?
A: First you need to open qBitTorrent and go to Preferences. Then select Web UI and tick on the box that says "Web User Interface (Remote control)". On the Authentication field, check "Bypass authentication for clients on localhost" and then Apply the changes. Now when you launch GUU (or you refresh the status), qBitTorrent should be connected.
Q: Why did you make this?
A: I created GUU because I wanted an easy way to upload torrents to the site since I always had issues using QTM (plus it is created for Windows only and I have moved away from it). Also I use qBitTorrent, because uTorrent is bloated and the old versions do not work for me.
Q: Didn't this already exist before?
A: Yes! The project was originally created in 2022 and written in Python. Although back then I had very little programming experience and the program wasn't very well coded, so I decided now to rewrite it completely in C++ and make it more stable and seamless.

Cool to see that you are back with GUU, I was just checking the git page a few days ago to see when it was last updated. Personally I think qbittorrent's api limits the potential it could have but it's still way better than the ancient QTM app.
-
@ianfontinell-0 Thank you! I have also added support for uTorrent in this version (for Windows users). Although personally I use qBitTorrent because it doesn't have any ads or bloatware.
Though if you have any suggestions about the program, feel more than free to let me know!
-
have you written similar utilities for GTO and GTN and PornoLab?
-
@lololulu19 I am not familiar with those sites, but if they work in a similar way to GayTorrent, I guess I could make this program support those too upon request.

For now my only suggestion is to qbt developers to add more command line features for managing new torrents, it sucks that we're requried to rely on the web ui, specially considering how hard it can be to handle. For instance, if I use it in HTTPS mode GUU won't be able to find it, from my past experience.
-
@ianfontinell-0 Indeed, command line options for qBT would be useful.
By the way you can now connect to qBT using HTTPS if you specify it in the host field (withhttps://...
). That being said, if qBT is running on the same computer as GUU, you do not need to use HTTPS. -

Hi vancer, I was sniffing qbt source and found out that those command lines we were discussing have already been present for a while. So I believe you no longer need to rely on the web api to add files, making it much more reliable imo.
Arguments go as follows:
qbittorent "path/to/torrent" --save-path="<path>" --skip-dialog=true
-
@ianfontinell-0 Hi! Thanks for lettings me know, I wasn't aware this option existed. I'll definitely have a look at this some time.
Although one I can say for sure is that this will not be more reliable than the web API, since there is direct communication with qBT, while by using the command line interface I have to make additional system calls which may produce unwanted errors. Plus I don't think it will be possible on macOS.
That being said I will still give it a try because it may be easier for users to set up. -
I have a problem with login, telling me to check the username and password, but it is correct.
-
@dhougie Hi, thanks for reporting! Could you tell me what your operating system is? (Window/Mac/Linux)
Also at the bottom of the program, what is the status of gaytor.rent? -
@vancer Thanks for replying. So I use Windows 11 and the status is unreachable. I thought it could be the Windows firewall but I created inbound and outbound rules, enabling both, but still no luck.!

@dhougie Hi again! I wasn't able to reproduce this on my end, however I did make some changes in the latest release (v14) which might potentially fix your issue. So give it a try if you want and let me know if it worked.
If it still does not work, please let me know and also make sure to send me the program logs too (by selecting Tools -> Open logs).
-
@vancer The program worked for login, but it says: An error occurred while crating torrent file.
I tried with 80 GB torrents and a smaller 3 GB torrent, it didn't work for any of them. (torrent client qbtorrent and utorrent)

-
@dhougie Thanks for letting me know about this issue! I found the problem and I will fix it in the next release of GUU.
