Tixati is a free and easy to use BitTorrent client featuring detailed views of all seed, peer, and file transfer properties. Also included are powerful bandwidth charting and throttling capabilities, and a full DHT implementation. Tixati is one of the most advanced and flexible BitTorrent clients available. And unlike many other clients, Tixati contains NO SPYWARE, NO ADS, and NO GIMMICKS.
Tixati portable version is meant to run on a USB flash drive or other portable media. It stores all its configuration files in the same folder as the executable binary files, and all file paths are stored in a format relative to the program executable folder.
It is important you do not delete the "tixati_portable_mode.txt" file within the executables folder. This file is what triggers Tixati to run in portable mode. (The executable binaries are actually the same as the standard edition binaries.)
When running the portable edition from a USB flash drive, especially one that is formatted in FAT16/FAT32, you may experience some lag when initially loading a new transfer. This is because initializing and allocating large files on flash-based media consumes a greater amount of time and resources compared to a conventional hard-drive.
Tixati has the following features:
- detailed views of all aspects of the swarm, including peers, pieces, files, and trackers
- support for magnet links, so no need to download .torrent files if a simple magnet-link is available
- super-efficient peer choking/unchoking algorithms ensure the fastest downloads
- peer connection encryption for added security
- full DHT (Distributed Hash Table) implementation for trackerless torrents, including detailed message traffic graphs and customizable event logging
- advanced bandwidth charting of overall traffic and per-transfer traffic, with separate classification of protocol and file bytes, and with separate classification of outbound traffic for trading and seeding
- highly flexible bandwidth throttling, including trading/seeding proportion adjustment and adjustable priority for individual transfers and peers
- bitfield graphs that show the completeness of all downloaded files, what pieces other peers have available, and the health of the overall swarm
- customizable event logging for each download, and individual event logs for all peers within the swarm
- expert local file management functions which allow you to move files to a different partition even while downloading is still in progress
- 100% compatible with the BitTorrent protocol
- Windows and Linux-GTK native versions available

- fixed problem playing some files in-browser via the WebUI files view
- fixed problems applying bandwidth presets via the WebUI bandwidth view
- added WebUI support for new auto-stop time options
- category auto-stop ratio and time settings now support non-default off setting
- completely re-written peer connection rotation routines
- peer connections that are running slowly are rotated out quicker if there"s many more to be tried
- peer connection speed evaluation for rotation is now based on a combination of short, medium, and long averages
- peer connection count purge threshold is slightly lower than previous version relative to the configured maximum for the transfer
- improved logging in peer properties, will now show more detailed rotate/disconnect messages, including speed and connection time
- fixed problems when hashing is interrupted by the user when creating new seeds
- fixed web seed URL calculation for multi-file transfers, should now work with archive.org
- several minor RSS/Atom feed parser compatibility improvements
- RSS feed created transfer options now fully support auto-stop ratio and time limits
- category tooltip now shows seeding ratio/time limits
- in transfer Details tab, replaced Elapsed Time with Download/Upload Time
- transfer Time Left shows estimate during seeding if auto-stop ratio or time limit set
- added optional (default-off) transfer view column to show seeding time limit
- fixed minor sort-updating problems when sorting transfers by time-left column
- in Settings > Transfers > Trackers > Individual Tracker Options, new Add Trackers directives include_private and exclude_private (default)
- in Settings > Transfers > Trackers > Individual Tracker Options, new Add Trackers directives include_created (default) and exclude_created
- category options in RSS layouts are now correctly hidden when the Categories feature is not activated
- fixed problems when notification system plays .wav files on Linux systems without GStreamer
- minor tuning to throttle priority algorithms, splitting should now be more accurate when there are many high-latency connections
- fixed rare crash on program close that was due to destroy sequencing of main throttle object and lingering sockets
- fixed rare crash when using enable_memory_profiling.txt on some Linux systems
- updated build system for Linux releases to GCC 9.3, with better optimizations
- IP location tables updated to latest delegations
