Private trackers no connection

Open Trav9421 opened this issue 1 year ago • 8 comments

It can't connect to private trackers, it stays on eternity and doesn't connect to the trackers. I've tried different ones.

Is there any technical differences between private and public trackers? From what I was able to find, the only reason could be is that private trackers could block unknown torrent clients (currently iTorrent reports it self as libtorrent 2.0.10, I'll fix it in next update), but I am not sure what I can do about it.

Actually it worked well with the first torrent I downloaded yesterday then it stops working. I tried both torrents today and the one from a public tracker went great. Others don’t

Many private trackers block mobile torrent clients or have a specific list of clients/versions that are supported. This could be the issue.

@XITRIX my private tracker that i use says that it supports iTorrent but maybe the newer versions of torrent isn't properly reporting itself as torrent. please kindly look into this matter

Regarding the previous comment I have seen iTorrent reported as iTorrent on qbit and as libtorrent on transmission. I can confirm that when I press Reannounce all under torrent->actions->trackers it doesn't reannounce and many clients appear as not contacted. As far as I remember I have never seen numbers there but everything is N/A

Hello! I was able to download from a private tracker totally fine since last week but now it doesnt work. It doesnt show any seeders but public torrent works just fine. Any ideas? Thanks!

Hey ! Same issue on my side. The private tracker I'm using doesn't block iTorrent, yet I can't get any download to start.
