SKDownloader Changelog

What's new in SKDownloader 4.0.1

• SKDownloader moved from Beta to full version:
• It has been a while after introducing torrent feature that SKDownloader had gone into beta stage. After weeks of testing, finally SKDownloader is moved to full version.
• File selection during torrent download:
• Now, you can choose which files in a torrent needs to be downloaded in case of multi file torrents. Also, individual files can be prioritised so they will be downloaded faster compared to others depending on availability.
• Tray icon introduced:
• SKDownloader by default will show an incon in the system tray if the tray feature is available with the operating system. By default, clicking on close button will minimize skdownloader to the tray. This will enable you keep your taksbar clean while skdownloader silently downloads your file. SKDownloader window can be restored by either double clicking on the tray icon or using menu from left click.
• The tray feature can be selectively disabled from the options menu.
• Max upload speed when only seeding:
• Many a times, upload speed will be kept low while downloading to maintail download speed. Now when downloads are finised and all torrents are seeding, it would be a good idea to increase the download speed so you share the maximum without impacting you. This option can be enabled and an upload speed specified in the options pane.
• Minor bug fixes in details frame fixed:
• Width of peer table columns can be modified by user and the dimensions will be stored and used next time the details pane is opened.
• Fixed bug causing peer table to flicker.
• Minor bug fix with progress bar in main table:
• In Linux, on adding a torrent, the progress bar in the main window showed "0%", but the bar is fully colured as when the progress is 100%. This is fixed.
• Minor bug fix with managed torrent internal storage:
• Fixed issue where torrents from sites all have the same name like "download.torrent". The internal torrent storage depended on the name causing issues when two torrents with same name were added.
• Minor bug fix with torrent details pane piece progress bar:
• Fixed bug where when a torrent added is already downloaded, the piece progress bar does not show 100%, but a value less than that.
