KTorrent como alternativa Linux a BitComet
Actualizado el
Nuestra opinión
KTorrent is a solid native Linux replacement for BitComet. It covers all core BitTorrent functions and adds features like DHT, encryption, and file prioritisation. Users who need a KDE‑centric interface or advanced queue management will find it suitable. Those who rely heavily on BitComet’s HTTP/FTP support may need a separate downloader, but for pure torrenting KTorrent is a good fit.

Lo que cambia
- KTorrent does not natively support HTTP/FTP downloads, unlike BitComet
- BitComet has a built‑in torrent creator; KTorrent focuses on downloading
- BitComet’s UI is more lightweight and cross‑platform; KTorrent is KDE‑specific
- BitComet offers a Windows‑only installer; KTorrent is packaged for major Linux distros
- BitComet’s plugin ecosystem is smaller than KTorrent’s
Abrir tus archivos de BitComet
KTorrent can open standard .torrent files exported from BitComet without issue. BitComet’s proprietary .bt file format is not supported; you would need to convert it to .torrent using BitComet’s export feature before importing into KTorrent.
Pasar de BitComet a KTorrent, paso a paso
- Export your active torrents from BitComet as .torrent files
- Close BitComet to free any port bindings
- Install KTorrent via your distro’s package manager or Flathub
- Launch KTorrent and use the "Add Torrent" dialog to import the exported .torrent files
- Configure speed limits, queueing, and proxy settings in KTorrent’s preferences

Does KTorrent support BitComet’s HTTP/FTP downloads?
No, KTorrent is a BitTorrent client only. For HTTP/FTP you’ll need a separate downloader such as aria2 or uGet.

Yes. KTorrent runs on any desktop environment; it only requires the Qt libraries and KDE integration is optional.
Is KTorrent actively maintained?
Yes, the latest release 26.04.3 (2026‑07‑02) is available in major Linux distributions and on Flathub, indicating ongoing support.
