Ultima Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Is the feed linking to the .torrent files directly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
placoboy Posted September 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Yep and it does already work for other files, but this one hasnt gone well, maybe a one-time thing?I am suite sure it did happen to me once a long time ago and I didnt bother but if that may happen again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 And that particular entry in the RSS feed links to the .torrent file correctly, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
placoboy Posted September 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 yes.Question is: how can a torrent "looks" like it has been snatched but in fact it has not?Could it be a bug? timeout on the site? the difficulty is that I am not sure it can be reproduced that easily and I was wondering if others had had this pb.

Ultima Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 AFAIK, it shows up in the history when µTorrent matches a favorite filter, so if it matches, but nothing gets downloaded, it still gets added to history. Is the feed from a private tracker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
placoboy Posted September 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 yep why? as I said it did work before (on other torrents).What would be the reason there is a match - without - the torrent to be download?(plenty of space )the tracker not responding quickly enough? uTorrent timing out? is there a setting somewhere?

Ultima Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 Grr I was going to see if I could take a look at the feed and stuff, but since it's private...There's no setting, but it's odd that it would happen with one specific torrent and/or filter...

placoboy Posted September 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 ok I made some other try and it did work on 3 other torrents normally so I would suspect previously somthing like a timeout when trying to download the torrent.Would that be possible to set up uTorrent to be a bit more "patient" by allowing longer timeout or retries?Any way to log this type of activities for debugging purposes?

Ultima Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 AFAIK, it doesn't log RSS stuff, so there'd be no way to make it do so =T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
placoboy Posted February 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 Up ...Just to ask if there is any plan to update/fix RSS so that:1) torrent does not show as downloaded if was not (for instance when the tracker load is high)2) a mechanism of "retry" could be implemented?RSS almost works great but with high load tracker, it doesnt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
