The most technically taxing feature, however, is probably the new encrypted folder option. This is great for accessing additional storage on your mobile device, as well as backing up your files stored on SD cards. Next, Sync now lets you move data to and from an SD card on Android devices (Lollipop or higher is required). Regardless, if we can't get beyond any limitation, then sadly we will have to find other solutions.Join today’s leading executives at the Low-Code/No-Code Summit virtually on November 9.I have asked my contact if this 50 peer/client limitation is inherent to the system, or if there will be an upgrade path.Whats worse, the BitTorrent branding of this BTSync product implies that opeers actually should stay connected in order to seed the network!.And indeed, looking at my 'devices' tab, after the restart the maximum number of clients, namely 50, have no connected and are just sitting there, awaiting new content, but not allowing more peers to connect.I just killed off my BTS server and restarted it, which apparently allows for the new clients to connect and sync, but obviosuly this is a non-starter for large media/large audience distribution.No wonder people have been having trouble connecting to the No Agenda BitTorrent Sync archive!.Unfortunately the situation is all too clear to me!.So when some US clients close their devices (get disconnected), Australian people can connect and vice versa. I receive reports from US, Australia and the rest of the world. I suppose you spread your podcast all over the world and it's popular with a lot of people. In other words, once you have created a secret and shared it with others, only 50 devices can get connected to it. The thing is that only 50 peers are allowed to be connected to one share. This forced me to write to you in order to investigate this issue. Analyzing my debug logs made me think that the problem is caused by maximum number of peers allowed to connect is reached. I received an email from the BitTorrent Sync support team this morning, and I learned something that may end our experiment of this alternate form of distribution:.There is now a discussion about this on the BitTorrent Forum.Notice its for an 'Enterpirise' version of the software, and of course they didn't reach out to me to help. But there may be hope yet, apparently there is a new BTS alpha that they are looking to get volunteers for.Disabling tracker server is not an option since they will not be able to connect to the share at all. The will still connect to you - tracker server will help. Disabling DHT doesn't mean that PC3 and PC4 won't connect to you and thus won't count. From my example (first part) PC3 and PC4 learn about your PC and get connected to it. DHT helps to find all other peers connected to the share.But if you share your secret to PC1 and PC2, and then each of them moves the content to another folder and shared the new secret with PC3 and PC4 and so on, then you will have your 50 peers, PC1 will have its 50 peers (connected via a new secret, not yours), PC2 will have its 50 peers (also, connected via a new secret, not yours). For example: if you share the secret from your PC to PC1, PC2, and then PC2 shared this secret to PC3 and PC 4, you will have five PCs (yours included) in the share, regardless of how PC3 and PC4 got their secret.In this case it's the secret itself that counts, not the device from which one gets it. To answer your questions: if you have 50 peers connected via one secret, each of these 50 peers will not be able to have additional 50 peers connected via the same secret.
