It doesn't seems to work on Windows 8.1

As soon as I try to start it, it crash and it create a dump file.

 

it's working fine on Win 7

 

Do you want me to attach the dump file?

 

Also where can I find API documentation?

 

Thanks

[vadimt]

Yes please send the dump file to syncapp@bittorrent.com and add link to this topic in your email.

Thanks a lot!

[noiime]

Done, the dump file as been sent.

 

Where can I get my hand on the API documentation?

[nils]

+1 for some sort of documentation for the API and advanced settings.

nils and noiime, here you go: http://www.bittorrent.com/sync/developers/api

* new secrets with support of read-only encrypted peers 

 

Forgive me if I'm being stupid but how does one go about setting this up?

I can only see the option for read only or read/write as usual.

it should read:

  • synchronize selected files only

Hi,

 

it says that we should fill out "this short form" to get an API key. I do not see a form, where could I sign up! I am really excited about this, thanks a lot!

Hello! Thanks so much for this big update and the API :-)

 

Is there anything to consider before upgrading from 1.1.82? Will syncing be possible between old & new versions? Will the old one prompt for auto-update?

 

Thanks and greetings!

[orion]

Will 1.1.83 autoupdate to 1.2, or should we manually install?

Autoupdate is not turned on yet, please update your BTSync version manually.

Thanks!

Hi everyone, 

 

Wanted to let you know that we set up a dedicated section for Dev/API questions and feedback here: http://forum.bittorrent.com/forum/106-developers/

 

Thanks!

Encrypted peers seem like a feature that many end users would like to use for backing up data to an untrusted location.

Is there a reason why you decided to "hide" this behind a developer-only API ? 

[manifold]

The updated Android app does not seem to connect to the other updated BTSync versions on the desktop (linux and windows).

It just shows: 0 devices online  (for every synced folder)

 

The linux & windows version show that the Android version is online, however nothing syncs to/from the Adnroid device.

 

 

PS: I had to completely delete the BTSync configuration on android. Then rescall all the QR Codes. Now it works

Indeed this would be useful for Dedicated/VPS servers where one want's to use them as a "cloud" storage.

Could you please follow these steps http://forum.bittorrent.com/topic/12658-if-you-have-syncapp-issue/ ?

On your android please agree with sending logs in Send feedback.

Do you see content of your shared folders on android in the "Remote" tab?

Thanks!

We did this for a few reasons actually. First, we wanted to try to keep the user experience as simple as possible and we thought that adding this might be confusing for many new users. Second, there was a technical reason also. When we update our releases, we typically add all the features across platforms (for feature consistency) - we found that adding Encrypted Peers to the mobile apps didn't produce the best experience so until we find a better way to do it, we elected to leave it out... for now. Its definitely something we plan to add but we're trying to do it in a effective way. 

 

Hope that answers your question.
