    @Dersch Let's move to the e-mails to stop flooding this topic. Could you please write me an e-mail to syncapp@bittorrent.com? Please feel free to copy paste our conversation there.

    @zbigb69 Did you add ignores to all the peers? Could you set log_size advanced preference to ~200, enable debug output and collect debug logs? Plz make sure that start indexing gets into the log prior collecting it. Send logs to syncapp@bittorrent.com, mention this forum topic in the message body.

    @pvkid What is the other device you try sync to? Also, could you please open TaskManager and see that BTSync is actually running?

    @Hagar, Could you please turn on full debug output on your PC, make sure that Android and iOS are online and then cooled debug log for me? Thanks!

    @trevellyan Still looks like something interferes LAN connection - which forces peers to jump to relay server. I can take a look at the logs from both peers, but it is very likely i'm not going to see anything except connectivity issues.

    @Aries Could you please try to scan QR with "Barcode Scanner" app by ZXing? It is a free app on android which is using the same technology of camera usage and QR recognition.

    @OpenRoad The .SyncIgnore won't help in this case. Only update to the next version (which is being prepared now). Sorry for inconvenience.

    Stan, iTunes takes music from your Library. Apple prohibits applications to write media content in your library, so no way BTSync or any other app can put files into your iTunes.

    @sciurius Well, you have to run Sync in config mode and set the sync_trash_ttl in config file.

    You need only to go over all the top level. Selective sync allow to sync whole subdirectory. Why do you choose selective sync folder if you need to sync all the files?

    I would also add - check settings of the router you use when connecting to the internet, if there any settings which will make it easier for router to process the packets (like, firewall, some filters, etc.)

    @gmosquera Who establishes VPN tunnel? I suspect that it might be "multiple NIC" issue (BTSync has issues when multiple NICs are active).

    @DonCamilo We are receiving crash reports from WindowsPhone OS and will analyze it. Meanwhile, I'd like to try reproducing it in the lab. What kind of files did you try to sync? Which size? Was it selective sync or automatic?

    Chris, Your issue is not in the fact that some filenames contain non-latin characters, but in the way they are encoded. The Linux itself does not care about how filenames are encoded - it just works with filenames as with an array of bytes. BTSync expects it to be a UTF-8 characters as it is used to be in Linux. If some app will create files in ASCII - these umlaute chars are going to be invalid from UTF point of view, and as a result will not be able to be synced to Windows machine. BTW, very simple case which you can encounter is copying files from flash drive formatted to FAT32.

    @Hagar Which OS your PC runs? If it runs Windows - I suggest checking that your Windwos Firewall does not interfere with BTSync traffic. Also, your router should allow traffic between wireless and wired networks. How many network adapters are active on your PC? There is a known issue with multiple network adapters in BTSync.

    @chosenken Could you please take a look at your desktop and check 2 things: 1. What traffic desktop shows? Are files actually appear on the desktop? 2. How your iPhone looks like on the "Devices" tab? Is there a cloud icon indicating that connection went thru the relay server?
  17. RomanZ
    @zbigb69 Are you sure that it indeed transfers data, but not just indexes all files and after "thinking" a little bit just removes them from the queue? How many files do you have and how long this after-restart sync takes?
  18. RomanZ
    @dummkauf It is possible to sync a directory to already synced directory, though both must have "RW" permissions. If one of them will have "RO" permission - BTSync will prohibit such sync.

    @kroe The most appropriate log here would be JavaScript console output.
  20. RomanZ
    @trevellyan Actually, BTSync tends to use direct connection when possible. So the fact that it jumps to relay indicates that it fails to connect directly. The only thing I wonder is why it does not switch back to direct once it is again available. Are you using some firewalls? Are your Macs are in the same subnet?

    @napseis What is your amount of files and folders? It could happen with extremely high amount of files/folders. Also, as you say, when issue comes - many apps that work with HDD become slow and unresponsive. I suggest checking the speed of HDD in general, make sure that your IDE/SATA controller also works in DMA mode. @ChrisFPol Peers can "see" each other via Tracker (port 3000) or via multicast over port 3838, while data transfer implies direct connection over random port (configured individually for each Sync instance). So it is possible that peers see each other but are unable to connect directly due to ports blocked. In this case they try to connect thru relay server - which gives them a very slow speed.

    @Magnetic_dud I wonder - do you run it with regular or with elevated privileges? Looks like you run it with different users BTSync's folder path is user-dependent).
  23. RomanZ
    @c0wb0yc0d3r set_folder_prefs sets preferences to whole Sync folder. You don't need to call it for every subfolder or file inside sync folder. To get file downloaded with Selective Sync you need to call set_file_prefs. Note, that the path to a file should be relative to the sync folder.

    @arthurlewis Try setting empty login and password.

    @mosteo Android has full-scale BTSync and indeed, removing files will remove them from other peers. If you want to "un-sync" them - your solution would be to share RO secret to Android device, then you can delete files without hesitation - the deletion won't propagate. It is interesting about auto-syncing files, though. As I understand, you have a selective sync and you never choose to sync these 2 files, right? What are the files? Are they different from others? When they were added to your PC peer? Any details might help investigation. If this happened recently - sending debug logs might also help.
