[Software Release] GayTor.rent Upload Utility

To clear this up from my side: GUU stopping is not a glitch. Third-party apps can no longer log in to the new site — and for security reasons that will stay this way. I'm sorry, vancer built a genuinely useful tool, and the thanks for that stands.

The good news: the new QTM is only days away — and it's no longer an upload form, it's a full client:

macOS, Windows (ARM too) and Linux — a single executable, no dependencies, runs instantly. Self-installing EXE like the good old QTM 1.3 — with automatic updates

The whole site, right inside QTM — browse, search, forum, browser-style detail tabs. Click download and it just starts. Never touch a .torrent file again.

A full torrent client built in — pause/resume, categories and tags, your list survives restarts; runs in the tray if you like, with auto-start, notifications, a bandwidth scheduler and a watch folder

Torrents from other sites work too — QTM can be your only client

Import from qBittorrent, Transmission, µTorrent and Vuze — move your existing torrents over without a recheck

Upload in one go — drag & drop your pictures, and QTM creates the rest itself: media info (resolution, length, codec), preview pictures pulled straight from the video, and a mini preview clip (10 scenes × 2 seconds — the kind you know from the big sites). Upload queue with retries instead of "error = everything gone"

RSS reader with auto-download rules

Secure login with 2FA support — private-tracker etiquette out of the box

27 languages, a dark 2026 design, a command palette, an account dashboard with ratio gauge and live stats

And that's just the base version. A taste of what comes after: the site's grid view starts moving with those auto-created clips. And if you download with QTM, it helps fill in missing info on older torrents as it goes — and you earn points for it.

Until then, the site's upload page does the job.

This sounds exciting!

Not sure if this is the right place to ask. I often do have the bandwidth but I do not help reseed torrents because I cant find the files again that easy or they are a lot of them. When my initial seed is done I sort the files in folders. Could you in the future update maybe add a feature that scans for the file hashes on my drives/locations and gives me the option to recreate the torrent and it's folder structure and save it to a new location?

I searched for a tool like this on the net but couldn't find anything

@eonflux You can do this using something called "symbolic links". At least, they're called that in Linux. I think the MS and Mac names are siimilar but not the same.

They're basically pointers you can put in your seeding folder that point to where the real files are. Those real files can be scattered in different folders and even different drives. They can also have different names. The seeding folder matches the torrent, so that's happy. But they're 'physically' where you want, so you're happy.

Here's an example of one I'm using. In the left-hand pane are the real files. In the right, the symbolic link files. (1) and (2) show the different directory locations. I choose to have the directory names the same as each other, but they don't have to be.

If you look at the sizes of the files on the right, you'll see they're relatively tiny, so it's far more efficient than keeping two full copies of each, one how you prefer, the other for seeding.

I've written a fairly detailed guide of how it works and how to implement it, if it's of interest. It's written for Linux, but the principles and process apply to Windows no differently.

Thanks, sorry for explaing it wrong I already have the torrent downloaded and the files are on my hd. The torrent file is gone but Im getting a reseed request from from the system messages. Because I dont know where the files are on my storage and in what dir but I know I have them. Im looking for a tool in can plop the .torrent file in and tell me where the files it needs are. I know torent keep file hashes stored.

@Kevin4fm They are also referred to as symlinks in Windows. They can be created using a tool called Junction, which is available either from MSDN or TechNet (I forget which MS brand they're under).

If they're something that enough people want, I can also upload it to my personal server and drop the link for users to be able to just go straight to the software itself, without having to jump through all the hoops.

It is something that can be done... But only if you don't rename the video files.
If you only move them as is, you can find them again without having to hash anything, relying exclusively on simple properties like filename and size in bytes.

There isn't any tool for this at the present moment, I'm only writing to let you know that is something doable and not too complicated.

But if you re-encode or change the filenames, then forget about it.

ianfontinell

@eonflux be my guest to try this tool: https://github.com/lucassantillifuck2fa/ttf/tree/main
Let me know if you find it useful or if it's not working for you.

@ianfontinell

Starting with the good news:
Dude you just did this. You are a THE GOAT!.

Bad news:
This is my fault and should have mentioned this im on linux.
I wonder if im the only one with this problem if so dont bother bro!
And I thank you for the bottom of my heart listening to me.

Kevin4fm

@eonflux Ah, gotcha. Yeah, this works great before the event, but isn't much use after... other than for compiling a multi-file directory to reseed a torrent without having to copy or move all the files back into a single folder once you've found those files.

I'm on Linux too, and I now have a script attached to my toolbar in Double Commander. I simply have the "From" folder open one side and the "To" on the other, click that button, then rename the symlinks to the original torrent names, if that's necessary.

I only use it for multiple file torrents that I intend to seed long term though. It's quick and easy, but not easy enough to justify it for everything.

@eonflux one issue with Windows users is always assuming everyone else is on Windows too! Now the terrible news: i cannot make a Linux version because 1 i don't know how and 2 the search engine I used is exclusive to Windows.

Sorry about that 🫢

Kevin4fm

@eonflux Just a thought, but according to my AI friend, if you feed the Windows script into ChatGPT, it would very likely be able to convert it into a Linux one. Even the free version should be able to do it easily, especially with a relatively short script.

The challenge is going to be to find a replacement for the proprietary Windows search engine. Wine might work, if you use it, or I guess you could hunt for a native Linux app with the same functionality.

Guess it all depends on how badly you want it, and how much time you can spare to do what needs to be done. I've lost count of how many hours I've spent going down rabbit holes where I've initially thought "this will be easy"!

No worries, your effort to fix this for me is much appreciated. I will try what Kevin suggested.

@ianfontinell Is it something that would possibly run as a self contained app within a wine environment?

I believe it's not possible, Everything requires access to low-level Windows features which is why they're isn't a Linux or Mac version. The NTFS system itself keeps a real-time table with all files, sizes and dates, Everything will simply read that table, so Even when you run it for the first time it takes only a few seconds to index all files and start searching. On a wine environment it would not find any master table file or journal with recent changes.
