Can’t get what you’re after with Tucan Manager? Here are the best torrent clients.

If you’re looking for a free, secure, and anonymous way to share files with others online but can’t find what you want on sites compatible with Tucan Manager, there are plenty of other options.

A torrent client is one of the best ways to download large files off the internet because it’s fast and efficient. You also get more privacy than when downloading from websites that track your IP address or require your email address.

There are many different types of torrent clients out there so make sure you pick one that suits your needs!

Transmission

Transmission is a long time favorite among Mac users for its simple interface and lightweight design. However, it is also available on other platforms now, including Linux and Windows. It’s simple to use, free, available on many platforms, and secure. It includes a web client so you can manage your torrents from a browser on any device.

Deluge

Another popular torrent client is Deluge. It’s very lightweight and simple but still has a ton of great features. You can change the look and feel with all sorts of skins, prioritize the download order, create watch folders, and so much more.

The best part is that it’s open source and cross platform, making it a great choice for any operating system.

qBittorrent

A new contender on the block is qBittorrent which has been praised for its modern interface and great security features. It comes with a web UI if you don’t want to install anything else but its torrent listings are limited compared to other clients.

uTorrent

uTorrent is one of the most popular torrent clients out there and for good reason- it’s fast, lightweight, and has a ton of features. You can control how much bandwidth your downloads use, set a download speed, organize your downloads into folders, use it on all major platforms including Windows and Mac OS, and more.

The only downside is that it’s not open source and is ad-supported. However, you can remove the ads by paying for a premium account.

BitTorrent

BitTorrent is another popular torrent client that’s been around for a while. It’s very fast and efficient and can handle large files well. It also has a ton of features, including a web interface, bandwidth management, scheduling, and more.

The downside is that it can be a bit overwhelming for beginners and can be resource-heavy on your computer.

How To Convert Videos For Upload To Chicktok

Wondering the best way to upload your own videos to ChickTok? In this article we’ll cover software you can use to convert videos to the correct format for ChickTok upload at the best possible quality.

Upload Directly From The App

If you’re taking videos on your phone, then you can directly upload them from the ChickTok app. Many ChickTok users like making TikTok porn with their phones, and find it easy to take vertical videos and upload them all in one place. With the camera quality in modern smartphones, this is the best option for most people.

Step 1: Open The Chicktok Application

On your mobile device, open the ChickTok application. If you don’t have it then download it from the Google Play or Apple Store.

Step 2: Click On The Profile Icon (looks like a silhouette of a person)

It’s usually in the bottom left corner. Or you can click on your own profile picture in the top right corner to open up your profile.

Step 3: Select “My Videos” Either swipe left or right until you get to My Videos.

If you don’t see the option, then long press on one of your videos which will pop up an option asking if you want to save it as a video. If so, select “Yes”.

Step 4: Select Upload Now Select the upload button which is a plus sign in an orange box. This will open up to any videos on your mobile device that have already been saved.

The ones with a green checkmark are already approved for upload. The others require approval by ChickTok.

Use Handbrake to Convert Videos On Your Computer

You may want to use a DSLR or other video camera for your ChickTok videos. If you’re trying to make adult movies with a more professional look and feel, you might want to use a professional camera that records in an unsupported format such as ProRes. In this case, you’ll need to convert the videos to the proper format on your computer before upload.

We recommend using Handbrake . It’s free and easy to use.

Here are the steps for converting videos with Handbrake:

Step 1: Download & Install HandBrake First download and install HandBrake on your computer. Then open it.

Step 2: Drag Your Video File Into The Window

First, find the video file you want to convert. Then drag it into the window for HandBrake.

Step 3: Select “Common Video” In The Presets

In the upper right corner select Common Video from the available presets. This allows you to upload videos directly from Handbrake using a preset that’s been optimized for ChickTok.

Step 4: Adjust Video And Audio Options

In the top right choose “Video” from the dropdown menu and select “H.264 + MP3 (default)” from the available options. For more advanced users, you can change this to your preferred settings, but we recommend using these defaults for a great quality video on ChickTok.

Step 5: Click “Start Encode” Then click “Start Encode”. This will start encoding your video for ChickTok. You can check the progress of this by looking to the bottom left.

That’s it! Once Handbrake finishes encoding your files, then you’re ready to upload them directly from Handbrake or move them to your mobile device for upload from there.

Which Option Is Right For You?

If you have a lot of videos, then it might be best to use Handbrake to convert your videos so you can batch upload them from there. But if you want quick and easy uploads from the application on your phone, then that’s a fine option as well. For most people, it will be best to upload your homemade XXX videos directly from the ChickTok app.

Either way will work just fine! We hope this article has been helpful in giving you ideas for how to upload videos to ChickTok. If you have questions, then go ahead and leave them in the comments below! And while you’re here, why not take a look at some of our other articles on TikTok Tips .

Common errors Tucan users have experienced

Common errors Tucan users have experienced

We wanted to publish a quick update about some of the errors our users have emailed us about. These errors are not associated with our 1-Click Hosted file sharing application. Instead, they are likely associated with Microsoft Windows or various functions on a Windows operating system. We’ll go into a bit of detail about some of them to hopefully help you diagnose, resolve, and prevent them from happening on your machines.

To get started, you’ve probably heard of Microsoft Windows. It’s the most common operating system. Chances are you have used or are currently using a Windows-based operating system. Because of that, many viruses and other errors have been developed to impact the usage of as many people as possible in some cases. When this happens, it can range from a minor annoyance to a catastrophic data loss. The goal is to keep interruptions, annoyances, and issues as minimal as possible – or to completely avoid them.

Certain types and files within a Windows system have been known to cause errors more frequently. Some of those errors are related to common-used files within the system itself. These files either become damaged over time, or they have been modified internally or externally. Either way, it’s crucial to get them resolved as quickly as possible. This video below shows you exactly what you want to avoid:

Here’s a short list of some of the common Windows files that cause errors:

  • .exe files – Files ending in “.exe” are executable files and are responsible for launching and running programs and applications on your system. Common exe errors include dwm.exe, csrss.exe, spoolsv.exe, svchost.exe, and a variety of others.
  • .dll files – Files ending in “.dll” are dynamic link library files and are also responsible for applications and application functionality.

If you notice errors with specific files on your computer, you should do what you can to resolve them quickly and effectively.

The annoying DWM process error

This file, dwm.exe, is part of the Desktop Window Manager process. Essentially, it allows users to see their desktop and other system ‘windows’. If the operating system is bogged down, viewing specific ‘windows’ can cause errors, slowness, or system failure. You can read more about the dwm.exe file at errorBoss.com. They outline a variety of helpful details about the file and have updated their page with new error messages users are getting as well. If you get this error, it might be related to the size of files you have on your desktop itself. Windows makes it super easy to create folder and file structuring for organization. Think about setting up a folder hierarchy to keep things organized and keep your desktop clean and fresh.

Errors with your printer – Spoolsv.exe process

Even though many organizations and households are going green and avoiding printers, they’re still necessary in some cases. When you need a printer to work, the last thing you want to see is a spoolsv.exe error. This error means the spooling process has stopped working and you will be unable to print. To read more about this specific file, check out this quick article: spoolsv.exe. Additionally, you can stop the spooler from running on your computer. However, this will prevent you from printing from that machine until you restart the spooler process. This is not recommended unless you really do not need to access a printer from that physical machine.

Hopefully this short article provided you with some details about common Windows system errors and how you can prevent them. The end goal is to make it so your computer (and yourself as a user) are effective and efficient enough to prevent these errors and mishaps from occurring. Once you get to that stage, it makes computing a much more enjoyable experience.
