BitTornado como alternativa Linux a µTorrent (uTorrent)
Actualizado el
Nuestra opinión
BitTornado can serve as a lightweight alternative to uTorrent for users who prefer a command‑line interface and open‑source software. It handles .torrent files and magnet links, and its low memory footprint makes it suitable for older hardware. However, it lacks a graphical UI, system‑tray integration, and advanced queue management that many uTorrent users rely on. It is best for power users comfortable with terminal commands and who do not need a full‑featured GUI.

Lo que cambia

- No support for advanced bandwidth scheduling or priority queues
- No automatic update mechanism or integrated settings UI
Abrir tus archivos de µTorrent (uTorrent)
BitTornado can read standard .torrent files created by uTorrent, but it does not import uTorrent’s proprietary .config or .torrent files with custom settings. Exporting from BitTornado to uTorrent is not supported; users would need to share plain .torrent files.
Pasar de µTorrent (uTorrent) a BitTornado, paso a paso
- Install BitTornado via your distribution’s package manager (e.g., apt install bittornado).
- Download the .torrent file or copy the magnet link you used in uTorrent.
- Run
bittornado <torrent-file>orbittornado --magnet <link>to start the download. - Use
bittornado --listto view active downloads andbittornado --stop <id>to pause or stop. - Configure download directories by editing the config file (~/.bittornado.cfg) if needed.
- Optional: create a system‑tray script or use a third‑party tray utility to mimic uTorrent’s tray icon.
