Overall, Tribler is an excellent P2P file sharing client for those new to it, although seasoned users will find it more than lacking in certain areas.īy Anonymous reviewed on February 23, 2012Ī great concept, a decade in the making. It doesn't save your search terms, so you have to retype them if you want to search a subject regularly.
#Tribler does not download download
You can configure a nickname for your profile on Tribler, a maximum upload and download limit, the router port you want Tribler to use, and a default download location. The disadvantage of this though is that the previews take ages to load as it searches for other users with the same material. Preview it by clicking the big Play button and Tribler will search for other users with the file so that you can see whether it's worth downloading. When you select a file, you can choose whether to preview or download it. What I really liked about Tribler, however, is the preview function. Maybe check back here later to see whether they've actually made this the tool people would actually want.As with most major P2P portals, Tribler allows you to browse simply by media category, and the most popular content is displayed first. To me this just seems like some sort of antediluvian P2P system that was around until everyone started using Napster in the late 1990's - until we see *encryption* and widespread take-up what is the point of this? You too will probably be asking yourself this question, if you can be bothered too. But surely there must be some way that once you grant the app this access, avoiding said Python error, surely then you can go in and change the download location to one of your choosing, right? Wrongamundo dudo! There they must go, otherwise you will endure a python error and a forced exit. One of those people who just keeps their desktop completely clear and actually locks it because you have your downloads kept somewhere else? Yeah? Well tough. As you turn it on for the first time, notice how it forces you to save downloads to Desktop.
