With the latest release, 1.10, this BitTorrent program will no longer be capable of unattended operation. Using it in conjunction with TVShows to download torrent files automatically, and running a Torrent download such as this one is no longer an option. The user interface requires interaction before it will start to download the torrent. A dialog box will appear requiring you to manually push an "Add" button before it will proceed and download it.
I am reverting to 1.06 for the time being. This torrent program was my favourite up until now.
I think this is a step in the wrong direction. Unattended operation of such programs is the very core of Mac-thinking. You tell the machine and the programs what to do, and they do it until you change the directives.
And now with this new release that is no longer possible...
It seems that v. 1.5 is also incompatible with all the (very useful) other plugins I've collected over the period I've been using it. The 1.1 beta works just fine with all of those,
i.e. CamiTools, CaminoSessions, UnifyCamino, GrowlCamino.
Even after removing ALL of them I still had to delete the prefs before it would even start without the bug reporter showing itself.
And then no new Window appeared and after a command-N still nothing happened.
I will be trying to get it to work over the weekend.
I was very happy with the old version. So I hope I can get it to work. Maybe the plugin-makers can post some comments here ?
