#SOULSEEKQT FOR WIN 10 DOWNLOAD#
– “ Show privately shared files when browsing user shares“: When browsing a users shares, you can either opt to only show files you can freely download (publicly shared), or also display results the user is only sharing with his friend list. If you don’t want to go through the hassle, you can uncheck it, but this will hide some potentially interesting search results. Choose this if you have no problem with asking people for permission to get their files. – “ Show privately shared search results“: Shows you files in the search results the user only shares with people on his friend list, and that might not be accessible for you. – “ Limit maximum number of search results per search”: Caps the amount of search results to the selected number. – “ Don’t put downloads in Downloading and Complete folders“: N/A (we’re not currently sure, but looking into it) Uncheck this to save single track downloads to the main folder instead.
– “ Don’t create subfolders for single downloads“: Normally, when downloading a file, Soulseek will automatically create subfolders, containing the artist, album and so on. The same goes for “ Limit maximum megabytes of queued uploads per user“. Doing so stops them from jamming your upload slots, or just aimlessly downloading your entire share. – “ Limit maximum number of queued uploads per user” puts a limit on how many of your files users can queue up to be downloaded from you. Both can be changed with the buttons on the upper menu bar.
– “ Download Folder” is the folder your downloads get saved to, and “ Shared Folders” is a list of folders that you share with others. A more pedantic user can control almost anything from here. Here, you can configure exactly what and how you share files.
#SOULSEEKQT FOR WIN 10 PASSWORD#
Keep in mind this password should be uniquely used for Soulseek, as it might not be saved securely on the Soulseek servers. There, you can also change your password by clicking “ Change Passwort“. (The upper bar allows you to change both listening port and your nickname)
You can leave it as it is in most cases, no need to change anything about it. – “ Server port” is the port under which Soulseek contacts the central server. As a bonus, you don’t have to change any of your routers configuration when going this way. Important: If you want to forward ports and use a VPN for privacy and anonymity (we strongly recommend you do), just use a VPN with port forwarding. For more information, consult our guide on port forwarding. – “ Use UPnP port mapping” and “ Use NAT-PMP port mapping” should both be checked, as it automatically forwards ports if your router and/or firewall allow this. You can change these by clicking on the “ Change Listening Port” on top of the screen (see screenshot below). In our example, it is 5709, but it will be a different one for you. There is also another port, named “obfuscated port”, which you also have to forward.
– “ Listening port” shows you the port you can accept incoming connections on this is infamous port you have to forward for maximum performance. To change it, you have to click on “Login As” on the top of the window (see screenshot below). It is bound to a password to protect it from others “stealing” your nick. – “ Username” is the username or user account others can see. Especially important is to setup port forwarding, because without it you won’t be able to download from some users. Keep in mind Soulseek works, for the most part, fine out of the box.
