moglo and dc++

Post by ravanelli » 2003-04-28 15:45

Moglo and Dc++ are really exellent both
Felicitation
But for the same files they give two numbers of Kb different
It will be nice if they could give the same
Thanks

Another thing
In the download queue we can see name(s) of the user of the file
Is n it possible to see the hub they come from

Thanks

yep, moglo counts one kb as 1000 bytes.. dc++ as 1024 bytes

so moglo has to change it ;)

No, MoGLO displays file sizes in bytes, not KB, MG or GB like dc++
This way you can tell the difference between two files that have very similar file sizes, but not exactly the same...

In the next version (not yet released) there is an option to display the file sizes as dc++ does, but advanced users will still probably want to see the file sizes in bytes, as it's more exact information.
