Global Rclone Flags

Hi,

in rcloneview preferences under advanced options I have saved the following global rclone flags:

–no-check-certificate;–ftp-no-check-certificate;–s3-directory-markers;–drime-upload-cutoff 0;–transfers 16;–checkers 32

(there are always 2 - )

But if I copy a folder in rcloneview from left to right, only 4 transfers start.

Can anyone help?

Thank you

Hi hwpdm,

Thanks for the detailed report — you found a real bug, and it’s now fixed.

What was happening: Your global flags were being passed to rclone, but when you copy a folder in the file browser, RcloneView was sending its own per-operation config that included transfers=4 (the internal default). In rclone, that per-call value overrides the global --transfers you set, so your --transfers 16 (and --checkers 32) were being silently ignored for drag-and-drop
copy/move/upload/download. That’s why you always saw exactly 4.

The fix: Ad-hoc file-browser operations (copy/move/upload/download/rename of folders) no longer inject those defaults, so your global --transfers, --checkers, etc. now take effect. Saved/scheduled jobs are unchanged — those still use the per-job settings in the job dialog.

A new build with the fix is ready:

After updating, copy your folder again and you should see up to 16 concurrent transfers.

One small thing to double-check in your global flags: please make sure each flag uses two plain
ASCII hyphens (–transfers), not en-dashes (–).

Let us know if it works as expected now. Thanks again for the great bug report!

Wow, thank you for that fast fix. Everything is working perfect now. :slight_smile:
