Rtorrent 16 0.16.22-86

The dashboard answers the only question that matters​

Rates, torrent counts, disk left — and a port check that walks the entire path instead of guessing: something listening here, the router's mapping, a connection from outside, IPv6. Each step passes or fails on its own line, so you know which half is broken.

Quick access — the list, without the weight​

Start, pause, trash, re-announce, set a label. ruTorrent is still there for everything else, one click away; this is the page for the ninety per cent of days when you only want to see what is arriving.

Drop a .torrent in, it works out where it goes​

The Add page reads the name and picks the category — film, series, kids, music, game — and the label decides the folder. Magnets, files, RSS from ruTorrent, or a watch folder per label: four ways in, one place they land.

A media library that says what it will do before it does it​

Downloads → finished → library, drawn as it actually happens, with the room left on each volume and the verdict for every hop: hardlink when it is one volume, copy when it is two, move when you asked for a move. FileBot renames and fetches the artwork; Plex, Kodi, Jellyfin and Emby get a nudge afterwards.

Ask your private trackers in plain language​

PolishTracker, TorrentLeech, any UNIT3D site, anything Jackett or Prowlarr indexes. Type latest Stranger Things — in English or in Polish — and it works out that you mean the newest episode, ranks what came back and puts the one you pick straight on the NAS.

A notification worth reading​

When a film lands you get the poster, the resolution, HDR, the running time, the size and the audio and subtitle languages — as one message. WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Signal, ntfy, Gotify, Pushover, Matrix, Slack, e-mail and a dozen more. The WhatsApp bot answers back, too: status, eta, latest Fargo, get 1-10.

Backups you can see — and put back​

Two copies a day, neither of them data: the torrent list (which torrents exist) and the configuration (settings, the panel password, tracker credentials, rc drop-ins, the certificate). Restore any single day from the panel; the torrent list restore stops rtorrent, swaps the list and starts it again without touching a byte on disk.

A performance wizard that measures your NAS​

It runs the disk and the network, reads the result against what this box actually has, and offers the settings that follow from it — with the cost of each written next to it. Nothing is applied behind your back.

Network and NAT, told straight​

Every port with its mapping, who mapped it, and whether the internet can see it. UPnP and NAT-PMP are asked at every start — and when the router refuses, the panel quotes the router rather than telling you to switch on a switch that is already on.

116 settings, nine languages, the manual inside the panel​

Every setting carries a sentence about what it costs; the ones that need a restart say so before you save. English, Polish, German, French, Italian, Dutch, Swedish, Japanese and Traditional Chinese. Eleven themes, light and dark. The guides are in the panel, not on a wiki somewhere.

It is a phone app too​

Add the panel to your home screen and it behaves like one — including a share target, so a .torrent or a magnet from any browser lands straight on the NAS.
