rafi Posted May 14, 2014 Report Share Posted May 14, 2014 latest beta keeps crashing like there's no tomorrow31274? Works fine here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stratometal Posted May 14, 2014 Report Share Posted May 14, 2014 Tested this with the "latest" beta you have linked in your signature as suggested. Both the stable AND the beta seems to having the same issue. Tried everything you suggested rafi, but not working. Also the beta is sort of "temperamental" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 Well... itיs a beta.... RSS works fine there. For me - the rest too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teorouge Posted May 21, 2014 Report Share Posted May 21, 2014 31356 here, found another bug in RSS Downloader: torrents fail to parse and therefore not auto-download when you have an apostrophe in the torrent name. See thread http://forum.utorrent.com/topic/91653-rss-downloader-error/ for more details. Can you confirm? I reported that but I got no replies.

yrubinucf Posted July 19, 2014 Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 same thing is happening to me. i have my HP win8 laptop set up to automatically restart every night. once it does, my utorrent rss feeds show up in the list but they're empty. restarting utorrent repopulates the feeds. using 3.4.2 (32343) 32 bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted July 19, 2014 Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 Confirmed (3.4.2 32380) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geminiman Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 This is happening in 33290. It munched a bunch of my feeds and they wouldn't show up anymore in the UI even though it told me that there were 9 feeds. So I blew away my rss.dat. Then I started adding again, but now it says Feeds (0) even though there are 7 active feeds, and nothing gets loaded. Tried restarting utorrent.

rafi Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 In the latest "stable" 33394 it's seems to start working once you have done "manual update" on the feeds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geminiman Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 Stable 33497 is still borked. Feeds get merged so when you add a new one, it overwrites the old one, when clicking on a feed you get the results for a different feed than the one you're looking at, etc. etc. etc. And that's to say nothing of the basic bugs in the (horrible!) UI for managing the RSS downloads) and the title parsing logic that seems to have been written by a 2 year old. If it wasn't for the fact that no one else seems to be able to do smart episode filters even remotely right I would ditch BitTorrent/uTorrent yesterday.

rafi Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 33883 seems a bit better in RSS startup...>title parsing logic that seems to have been written by a 2 year old.What logic...? There are only those */|/not operations, that work fine. Cover most of my use-cases... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geminiman Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 The "Decoded Name" logic is what I'm referring to. It's gawd awful and basically useless. Then there is the New Favorite from the RSS Download Manager, which doesn't save anything unless you switch to another one first after creating it which has been there for YEARS. And that's to say nothing of the horrible UI in the first place. Don't get me wrong, the functionality concept is great, and vastly better than every other client, which appears to not have thought about the problem at all, but the actual implementation is junk and needs to be fixed beginning to end. (and it needs a "skip torrents with rar/7z/zip if possible" function...grrr...) I would LIKE it to have defaults ("i.e. select 720p, 1080i, 1080p by default)I would LIKE to have Categories that apply these defaults by category. But I just really want it to work first. To repro the adding of RSS feeds issue: 1. Clear your list of rss feeds.2. Add the Pirate Bay HD TV feed3. Add the Pirate Bay HD Movie Feed4. Add the Pirate Bay Other feed. The Pirate Bay Other feed will not get added properly, instead the UI will show the Movie feed but will be overwritten with the other feed. It appears that it did add the feed, but you simply can't see it or use it and it doesn't appear to download from the last 2 you added. This is in the most recent stable and the most recent beta.

Oral-B Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 Then there is the New Favorite from the RSS Download Manager, which doesn't save anything unless you switch to another one first after creating it which has been there for YEARS. God yes. It's basically become second nature to me to use that workaround, but how that MAJOR bug is still there after all this time is baffling to say the least...

rafi Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 Is that what you mean?.............. Maybe you have some write access issue to rss.dat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beasly Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 Yep...Adding new feeds don't show in list but does show correct number of feeds.It seems the rss.dat becomes corrupt.If you have a backup rss.dat from previous version then use that..It fixed it for me.

rafi Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 When does it become corrupt? Exactly...BTW, I have started from scratch (no rss.dat at all)... . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beasly Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 Starting with no rss.dat then adding more than six feeds it's starts to get buggy on my end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 Well. I've added 3. I'll try some more.... Right, after feed #4 - they start to overlap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geminiman Posted September 17, 2014 Report Share Posted September 17, 2014 Happens at the 3rd feed, all from the same root URL (i.e. Pirate Bay). I can repro it reliably. Just delete rss.dat and then add those 3 feeds and the 3rd one will get borked per my bug report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brknking Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 I ran into this same problem and just found something that made the other feeds display. Each feed in the rss.dat file has an "identi" value (can be found by opening the dat file and searching for "identi") I found that the feed that wasn't showing had the same value as one that was, i changed the number and restarted utorrent and it popped right up. 1.close utorrent and make a backup copy of your rss.dat2. open rss.dat and find "identi" it will look something like this ":identi1234000e10:"3. change the number between the "identi" and "e10" to something else that's not the same as another feed "identi1234001e10"4. restart utorrent only tested for the last 20 minutes or so, but this may help someone.

ChubbyLover Posted September 25, 2014 Report Share Posted September 25, 2014 Changing numbers in rss.dat did the trick for me! Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElChOrC Posted September 29, 2014 Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 Tried everything you suggested rafi, but not working. I'm sensing a pattern Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geminiman Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 Confirmed. The issue is that the identi is always getting calculated as 0 as of the 3rd feed and thus you end up with dupes even though it knows that there are others. Manually changing it so that there are no dupes solves the issue. Should be a simple bug to fix and a "blame" should tell you who broke it Now if we can just get the rest of the RSS bugs fixed...

GuardianOfTime Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 Greetings, I've been reading previous "rss problem" feeds for quite sometime, some ppl are helpful, others say there is absolutely, 100% nothing wrong. I've been experiencing the same problems as others, deleted old files, replaced dat files, deleted reinstalled, renamed whatever, I tried on my own. but THIS solution you posted is working, been running for a couple of hours, no problems, exited, restarted, no problems, rebooted computer no problems. I've been keeping my mouth shut on this b/c it is just frustrating when numerous ppl report the exact same problem and get blasted for it. So I trolled, sorry. but thanks Brknking, I attempted your test, followed your steps and all is working. thank you again for the attempt and if anything changes, I'll repost, but for now, your solution is a GREAT work around! Thank you. I ran into this same problem and just found something that made the other feeds display. Each feed in the rss.dat file has an "identi" value (can be found by opening the dat file and searching for "identi") I found that the feed that wasn't showing had the same value as one that was, i changed the number and restarted utorrent and it popped right up. 1.close utorrent and make a backup copy of your rss.dat2. open rss.dat and find "identi" it will look something like this ":identi1234000e10:"3. change the number between the "identi" and "e10" to something else that's not the same as another feed "identi1234001e10"4. restart utorrent only tested for the last 20 minutes or so, but this may help someone.

Brknking Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 Glad to hear it's working for you guys too, I have yet to have any problems.I understand your frustration, I've been looking into this on the forums for awhile too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
