Motrix 2.0.0-beta.35

English | 简体中文

Motrix 2.0.0-beta.35 improves download task controls and completion display,
adds native Arch Linux packages, and links the published Firefox extension.
It is intended for public distribution only after every protected release gate passes.

Highlights

• Pause state remains consistent across aria2 RPC polling. HTTP/FTP tasks publish
  their finalizing state before file processing, clear stale transfer metrics,
  and keep incomplete transfers below 100 percent
  (#2100).
• Selected tasks remain visible beside the inspector, including after filtering
  or resizing. Task details show creation and completion times, and opening the
  destination folder works before the output file is ready
  (#2100).
• Native Arch Linux .pacman packages are built and verified for x64 and
  arm64, with an additional x64 installation smoke test. See the
  Arch Linux guide
  for installation and updates
  (#2099).
• Browser integration links now point to the published Firefox Add-ons listing.

Before testing

This is prerelease software. Back up existing Motrix application data and
downloads before installing it. Migration from Motrix v1 data has not yet been
validated, so do not use your only copy of v1 data with this beta.

When practical, test v2 in parallel using a separate OS account, machine, or
Docker data directory. Check pause/resume, completion progress, destination-folder
actions before files exist, and selected-row visibility with the inspector open.
Arch Linux testers should check installation and updates using the native package.

After the protected release completes, Snap testers can install the strictly
confined build with sudo snap install motrix --edge. Existing installations
tracking latest/edge should upgrade to the same beta.35 revision set.

Planned downloads after release gates pass

After every container gate passes, the versioned image references will be
docker.io/motrixapp/motrix-server:2.0.0-beta.35 and
ghcr.io/agalwood/motrix-server:2.0.0-beta.35. See the
Docker Server deployment guide
for storage, networking, remote Extension pairing, and upgrade guidance.

Distribution notes

• AppImage desktop integration is opt-in and confined to the current user's
  XDG data directory. Browser-extension hand-off is not yet available from the
  AppImage package because its Native Messaging host does not have a stable
  path outside the mounted image.
• Flatpak is validated separately and is not published by the release tag; the
  GitHub prerelease includes its Native Host companion archives.
• Windows arm64 and all 32-bit packages are not available.
• Windows packages are unsigned and may trigger a Windows SmartScreen warning.
  Download them only from the official GitHub prerelease after it is published.
• Beta container tags are immutable and do not update latest, stable, or
  other stable floating tags.
• The Snap package is strictly confined. Its approved personal-files
  interface is limited to registering Native Messaging host manifests for
  supported browsers. Beta publication updates latest/edge only; it does not
  promote the build to candidate or stable.
