Thread: Rutorrent 3.0 and iPad ?

Does anyone know if the iPad is capable of viewing Rutorrent 3.0 webgui?
Either on safari or some other browser? I know it doesnt support flash, but is this necessary for rutorrent 3.0?
Cheers,

ruTorrent doesn't run on Flash, but javascript. If Safari can support javascript, everything will work fine.

Why not buy a netbook, then you could even use the FTP to download and watch on the go. And the new netbooks can output 1080p WIN WIN :) (Y)

I'm getting a free iPad soon. Also the wife and kids will be using it as well, it's probably more stable and hassle free than a win-slate (no netbooks thanks!). I'll just be using it for general surfing and would like to check on my seedbox from time to time, esp when travelling.

I don't think you will have any problems since iPad has really big screen. You should have no problem unless the Browser just don't read correctly... that can really be a mess though.

Free iPad! Must be nice! It really is too bad that Jobs doesn't want anything to do with Flash. Makes it really tough of us end users really wanting to use this iDevice for more than just a eReader and movie viewer.

Yes It can.
But you need "Atomic Web" to view the page correctly. It is better than Safari.

Although there are huge cons. No scroll bar and no right click.
At least you can operate basic functions of the torrent with menu bar.
The tracker label help with scroll bar problem, If you don't have a lot of torrents in each tracker.
In landscape view the ipad can view about 17-18 torrent.

For me I think it pretty good, can operate/view rutorrent on the go.
Convenience than net-book!!
