thesoul214 Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 I am wondering BitTorrent Sync's protocol is same as BitTorrent !! I have read information about peer discovery or p2p protocol on http://labs.bittorrent.com/experiments/sync/technology.html What I want to know is what kind of protocol is used for BitTorrent sync when Syncing(or Transferring) the file. Sync also using choking or piece select algorithm just like a Bittorrent(read on https://wiki.theory.org/BitTorrentSpecification#Conventions) ? can somebody let me know about that, or just please link to some page about protocol... I will use Bittorrent Sync on the environment of Lan without via internet. I am not native english speaker, so I am not sure that everyone can understand my question ..;;; thank you for taking some time for reading.

GreatMarko Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 The BitTorrent Sync protocol is a variation on the BitTorrent protocol - they are not identical/interchangeable. Specifics about the BitTorrent Sync protocol haven't been released by BitTorrent Inc at this time (don't complain about that here - there are plenty of other developer-bashing threads around the forums already! lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesoul214 Posted October 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Thank you for answering Marko. I did meant to complain about that...just haven't been released by company..it can't be helped... But No plan to release about protocol or algorithm in the future? and also can't see how much different from Bittorrent protocol?.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
