Clutch provides browser control of torrents

Hmm, looks like clutchbt.com is down :(

I'm so happy with this! I've been looking to do this for a while on my apple tv, as libtorrent doesn't have a webui. I will definitely donate to both projects when I have this running! Thanks for this post and thanks to the devs!

Installed it today in conjuction with Transmission 1.0 on my Intel macmini. I can view and control my torrents of Transmission.app through Clutch, however I cannot upload a torrent (put on a new torrent) through Clutch. It says that the file is probably already downloading, which it doesn't. That sucks as I was hoping to replace Azureus + WebUI plugin with Transmission + Clutch...

You may want to do your homework better before you post: indeed the Clutch v0.2 is compatible with Transmission v1.0.
Also, it does NOT use the systems web sharing, but a purpose build lighttpd packaged inside of Clutch.
If there are more questions, I, and others, are more than happy to answer your questions in the forum or IRC.

Actually, Clutch 0.2 does use the Transmission Cocoa Torrents.

Also, it bundles its own lighttpd and php, it doesn't use the built-in webserver.

(FYI, I'm The project leader for clutch, and thank you very much for the post!)

I can't get the web server to work. I'm on an Intel Mac Mini, running Leopard, Transmission is open and Clutch is open. I set the preferences, the default port is open, and I have it on HTTP with no authentication. I click Open URL and it gives me a "could not establish connection" page in Firefox. Anybody have an ideas?

"Clutch is a front-end for the Transmission torrent engine; it doesn't require the GUI version of Transmission, and the two tools don't show each others' download results." now i does! my transmission torrents shows up in the webgui and vice-versa, sweet!

Oh, this is so perfect. Azureus was the only one that supported this, and it runs too slow on my old G4 server.
