# Transmission 4.1.0-beta.5
This is Transmission 4.1.0-beta.5. We're in feature freeze
for 4.1.0 -- testers and feedback are encouraged!
## What's New in 4.1.0-beta.5
### Highlights
* Fixed `4.1.0-beta.1` bug where some downloads could get stuck for a long time. ([#7899](https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/7899))
* Fixed `4.1.0-beta.4` bug that broke icons on Windows. ([#7931](https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/7931))
* Fixed `4.1.0-beta.4` issue that included backwards-incompatible keys in the settings file. ([#7917](https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/7917), [#7918](https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/7918), [#7932](https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/7932), [#7995](https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/7995), [#8002](https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/8002))
* Return `X-Transmission-Rpc-Version` header in RPC HTTP 409 response to indicate JSON-RPC support. ([#7958](https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/7958))
### All Platforms
* Fixed `4.1.0-beta.1` bug where torrents with unaligned piece and block boundaries could get stuck at 99%. ([#7944](https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/7944))
* Fixed intermittent crashes on macOS and GTK app. ([#7948](https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/7948))
* Reject incoming BT data if they are not selected for download. ([#7866](https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/7866))
* Fixed minor 4.1.0 beta regression to honor the `sleep_per_seconds_during_verify` setting when verifying local data. ([#7870](https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/7870))
* Fixed remote RPC bug where querying `recently_active` torrents missed some torrents. ([#8029](https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/8029))
* `torrent_get.wanted` is now an array of booleans in the JSON-RPC API. ([#7997](https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/7997))
* Encryption mode in `settings.json` and RPC are now serialized to the same set of strings. ([#8032](https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/8032))
* Renamed setting to `cache_size_mib` to reflect the correct size units. ([#7971](https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/7971))
* Renamed `peer_socket_tos` to `peer_socket_diffserv`. ([#8004](https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/8004))

* Raised the minimum Qt5 version to 5.15. ([#7943](https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/7943))
### Daemon

### transmission-remote
* `transmission-remote --blocklist-update` now prints blocklist size after update. ([#8021](https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/8021))
