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.

It seems to be an issue with the website configuration on their end as it only happens on the new domain (gaytor.rent). If I modify GUU to use the old domain (.ru) all uploads work fine, which is also the reason QTM works at this time.

I have reported this to the admin and I hope it will be addressed. There is not much I can do right now other than making a temporary update so that GUU uses the old domain, but this will complicate things so I am probably not going to do that.

@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.

Hi everyone, thanks for bringing this to my attention. I will investigate this and fix the problem as soon as I can. I'll keep you updated.

@kurtiscub Hi and sorry for the delay. I have been debugging the issue for the past few days but it seems that the server is rejecting all picture uploads made by GUU (all other functionality works as expected). I have messaged the site admin about this but haven't got a reply yet.
For now I will continue doing some tests and wait for a reply from the admin in the meantime. Sorry again for the inconvenience.

@geniusacamel Hi, sorry for the late reply. What is the error you are getting?
I just tried uploading a torrent from my end and it worked fine.

@geniusacamel There is a setting that allows you to specify a directory where you want your torrents to be saved, although it is disabled by default so you should check it out.

@lololulu19 No, this is different software than QTM. Please read the first post in this thread for more info.

GayTor.rent Upload Utility v17 has been released!

Changelog

• Add option to force V1 torrent creation ( @ianfontinell-0 @PrototypA5 )

Download

• Download for Windows
• Download for macOS
• Download for Linux

@ianfontinell-0 @PrototypA5 Personally I would recommend to everyone to update their torrent software not just for the functionality but mostly due to security reasons. Although if someone strictly wants to use a client which does not support V2 for whatever reason I can of course add an option for that in the settings.

The question is, which should be the default? This should depend on what torrent clients most people here use, but I don't have such information.

@tandemblue I'll assume you are talking about GUU and not QTM. If this is related to QTM, this is not the right thread to post this.
