I think a plugin that gives the user the ability to customize the peer ID is a great idea. It's a good solution that would hopefully encourage good practices in the torrent echo system. Deluge will get better advertisement with this plugin. Take a look at web browsers for example , Changing the user...

Do you know of any other sites that do this or is it a one-off? If you mean torrent sites , this is the 1st time I encounter this problem . So It's obviously not used in the 5+ sites I fetch torrents from usually . But in general , some sites actually do use gzip compression . This issue was brough...

Are you downloading the torrent through your browser or passing the url directly to deluge? The latter could be causing the problem: The torrent files are saved to disk in gzip format, that means you have to use a browser that understands the gzip transfer encoding. Oh , that was really relevant . ...

Can anyone confirm this works with python 2.6 ?

deluge 1.1.9

I have a feeling python 2.6 is the cause of this issue .

It works fine for me, it must have been the file you were trying... I tried the one that's listed right on their front page. http://torrage.com/torrent/640FE84C613C17F663551D218689A64E8AEBEABE.torrent The same torrent not working for me : [ERROR ] 15:35:43 addtorrentdialog:194 not a valid bencoded ...

I wanted to post this here before I open a ticket .

Torrents hosted by torrage.com are not working for me in deluge .
Is that normal ?

Edit : The issue is explained now . See my comment here in this thread .

No complaints . Deluge is working great (running Arch Linux here) . I just have a couple of questions : 1) deluged 1.1.x ram usage is doubled compared to 1.0.x , Is there a technical reason behind that ? 2) There is a lot of Deprecation Warnings with python 2.6 . A sample : /usr/lib/python2.6/site-p...

we just never felt that option was necessary since sparse files are better in pretty much all ways. Well , Using sparse files used to be a cool idea . But new techniques were implemented in filesystems to overcome the disadvantages(1) of using sparse files . Ext4 will follow the path XFS started by...

It would be great If I can rename files to be downloaded (especially before adding the torrent) . It's useful to fix mislabeled torrents and to avoid character-encoding incompatibilities . Should I file a feature-request ? No, it's already been added to trunk. Good news. Deluge is my favourite clie...
