Yet ABC – Review

yet-abc-reviewYet ABC adds to the crowded scene of Bittorrent clients and goes one step further than the p2p application it derives from – BitTornado 0.3.10 (extended from from Original Bittorrent Core System).

This is a program supporting a queueing system with option for priority, allowing users to set global and local preferences when downloading torrents and offering multiple upload options for finished files, a configurable display, and remote access through a web service.

Yet ABC allows you to easily manage your torrents. Its interface is pretty clean – at the upper side of the main window you have large icons (that let you perform the main functions – pause, resume, delete a file, etc) and at the bottom side there are lots of details about the download status.

Here are the program’s main features:

  • Multiple downloads in a single window
  • Queueing system with priority
  • Ability to customize the information ABC displays
  • Supporing pause, stop, resume, queue, remove operations
  • Minimize to taskbar (and/or system tray)
  • Displaying torrent details and advanced details
  • Supporting global setting such as upload and download limiting
  • Supporting local setting for each torrent as well
  • Supporting advanced settings from BitTornado
  • Supporting BitTornado’s super-seed mode
  • Choosable upload options when download is done [unlimited, timer, sharesize]
  • Torrent won’t be blocked in queue, ABC will reduce torrent’s priority and force it to queue which user can set timer for these conditions
  • if torrent can’t connect tracker
  • if torrent can’t get any byte from other peers
  • if seeding torrent has no one download
  • Choosable number of simutaneous download
  • Choosable between download to the specific folder or always ask for the folder
  • Supporting manual adding torrent from both file and url
  • Supporting automatic adding torrent from url (when you click on .torrent file)
  • Including make torrent file program
  • Displaying number of real peer, seed on tracker (for tracker that supports scrape data)
  • Supporing add, delete, queue, pause, stop, resume and query current torrent status via Web Interface
