magnet links sometimes fail to download
Posted: Mon Aug 27, 2012 3:17 pm
Sometimes - very infrequently. I stumble upon magnet links which fail to download with the follwoing symptoms:
* torrent appears in the download list
* some peers get connected, in the peers tab I see both peers and growing peer download percentages - torrent is very much alive
* avail column in the main panel shows 0.000
* files tab is blank
Majority of magnet torrents on this tracker download fine. Manually changing tracker changes nothing.
Example of such a torrent is: magnet:?xt=urn:btih:208623df9c6381f174420f10dfa1a7dac785409b&dn=Alphaville+%28Jean-Luc+Godard%2C+1965%29+720p+HDTV&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.openbittorrent.com%3A80&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.publicbt.com%3A80&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.istole.it%3A6969&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.ccc.de%3A80 ktorrent 4.1.1 downloads it without a problem.
1.3.5 linux
Any ideas?
