I have an issue where a downloaded .torrent file (two of them) are not recognised by Transmission via a private torrent site. I recall I had this issue with a torrent a couple years ago. I tried Vuse and whilst it opened the torrent file ok, it is not setup for private torrent use.
I've tried both drag & drop (what I normally do) and manually directing Transmission to open the file, both failing. Nothing happens in both cases. No error messages either.
I have tried re-downloading the two .torrent files and same issue.
I successfully added other torrent files to Transmission for download both just before and just after this issue. But still same issue with the particular torrent files.
Searching the private torrent site's help section I noticed another Transmission user complained about same problem 5 months ago.
Questions:
1. Is this a Transmission problem?
2. Is Transmission struggling to parse certain .torrent files properly?
3. Is there any workaround to get Transmission to accept these torrent files?
MacOSX 10.6
MP3,1
Transmission 2.84 (14306)
Unable to open specific torrent files with Transmission, is there any workaround or fix?
