Unable to retrieve metadata

Post by fckwan »

Hi,

The following magnet file when added to qBittorrent it stuck in the retrieving metadata stage.
When I add the same magnet to bitComet. It retrieve the metadata without problem and show the related files.

qBittorrent version 4.2.5 (64bit)
bitComet version (1.71)

Also, this page does not allow me attach the magnet link as a .txt file. "Invalid file extension: 中國通史 EP72.txt"


magnet:?xt=urn:btih:8faab056a922645be250ae9805b1c84e903c2579&dn=TVBOXNOW 中國通史&tr=udp://tracker.coppersurfer.tk:6969/announce&tr=udp://tracker.opentrackr.org:1337/announce&tr=udp://9.rarbg.to:2710/announce&tr=udp://9.rarbg.me:2710/announce&tr=udp://tracker.leechers-paradise.org:6969/announce&tr=udp://exodus.desync.com:6969/announce&tr=udp://tracker.cyberia.is:6969/announce&tr=udp://tracker.tiny-vps.com:6969/announce&tr=udp://retracker.lanta-net.ru:2710/announce&tr=udp://open.stealth.si:80/announce&tr=udp://tracker.torrent.eu.org:451/announce&tr=http://tracker4.itzmx.com:2710/announce ... 5/announce

Works on my machine - Ubuntu 18.04 VM, qBittorrent 4.3.0alpha1. By the way, this torrent is kind of shitty - it has the non-standard BitComet padfiles. But at first glance there is nothing that would prevent this from working on 4.2.5 on Windows. If I have time, I'll test it later.
