File Centipede is an all-in-one cross-platform internet file upload/download manager built with C++ and Qt. It combines a BitTorrent client, WebDAV, FTP, and SSH client with browser integration for downloading audio and videos, including encrypted streams.

Use cases

  • download videos from websites including m3u8 streams
  • download torrents and magnet links
  • manage multi-protocol file downloads with resume support
  • browse and transfer files over FTP, SSH, and WebDAV
  • download online videos via browser integration
  • upload files to remote servers

When to choose

  • you need one tool covering HTTP, FTP, SSH, WebDAV, and BitTorrent downloads
  • you want to grab streaming or encrypted videos from websites
  • you want a cross-platform GUI download manager with proxy and site-rule support

When to avoid

  • you need a lightweight command-line-only downloader
  • you require a permissively licensed project (no license is specified)
  • you only need a dedicated torrent client with a mature ecosystem
