Transmission 4.1.1 fixes over 20 bugs from version 4.1 and brings performance improvements to all platforms.

Transmission 4.1.1, an open-source cross-platform BitTorrent client, is now available on multiple platforms. This bugfix update addresses over 20 issues reported since version 4.1 was released three weeks ago. These include:

  • Fixing incorrect free space reporting to RPC clients querying available disk space
  • Restoring proper display and persistence of torrent queue positions between sessions
  • Resolving crashes triggered by pausing torrents while editing tracker lists
  • Fixing an arm32 crash by switching CRC32 libraries to Mark Adler’s crcany
  • Hardening .torrent parsing to exit early when encountering invalid “pieces” sizes
  • Reverting an RPC change that returned floating-point values for speed limits and broke third-party integrations
  • Requiring UTF-8 filenames in .torrent files, in line with the BitTorrent specification
  • Addressing a potential file descriptor leak when launching scripts on POSIX systems
