Re: Problem downloading torrent files

If it says metadata, it means your client is trying to download the torrent file from the other peers because it's a magnet link. But it can't connect to them.

Look up port forwarding and make sure you don't have qBittorrent firewalled.

Re: WebUI, login credentials

It would be a BIG security flaw.

Simply go into settings and you can enable whitelist. Like you can whitelist an IP for example. If it's on the internet and you don't have a static IP, you can always set up SSH port forward and then use the local IP (like 127.0.0.1) as whitelist.

Re: WebUI, login credentials

- Could you clarify what do you mean by "go around"?
- Also, each Docker qBittorrent "distribution" is different, there is no official version. So each will differ in behavior.

Re: Is there an ETA on qBittorrent 5?

It's done when it's done. :)

I am not aware of any huge changes coming with 5, it's just a new big major version.

Re: Torrents with tracker errors as errored

I tried adding this functionality - but if you add the feature - it breaks the tracker tier change functionality.
Like now you can click a tracker and left-right you have arrows. Those would break.

So is is what it is.

Re: must not contain option

It is a "kind of regex". What is regex, how you do it? 1) I'd recommend using an "AI" to help you write it! Google Gemini, ChatGPT, Microsoft CoPilot. Just tell them you need a regex to exclude results. Like 720p and whatever else. 2) Use an online regex tester to check if the re...

Re: Units used in qBitTorrent

The app shows BYTE/s. So KB/s, MB/s, etc.
On your pic, it shows you push roughly ~400kb/s upload at the moment, which is ~3mbps.

There is also some overhead to all transfers, but it's hard to give an exact number how much.
But basically you can't use 100% of your available speed.

Re: convert downloads to playable format

- it's a "RAR" file, basically an archive, which has been split up. - you can play this directly SOMETIMES using VLC media player. you just grab the .RAR or .R00 file into the VLC and it should play. - most often you can't do this though, or you just want to extract it anyway... for that, ...

Re: Bad search results

The name is like this because it's being downloaded through magnet.
Until qb finishes donwloading the .torrent from other peers, you don't know the files, names, etc.

Re: Security Risk - Infected by a mining worm via qbittorrent and weak password

Oh this was the default password on WebUI.
It even received a CVE as a security risk.

The new versions generate a strong password instead to safeguard users.

Re: How to run two instances of qBT?

Yeah, it's been a thing for a long time.
https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorr ... table-mode

And they are adding a way to differentiate between the instances; you can add a new title in the title bar, etc. But it's only in the -git version yet, it's not in stable for now.

Re: Seeded torrents slow to pick up after file move

Yeah but there are no downloads (as in peers) on any of those torrents there.
Try adding a Linux torrent, or something from Nyaa that's "needed". You'll seed plenty.

Try the racing method, you can do it on your own PC too if you have enough storage + internet.

Re: Seeded torrents slow to pick up after file move

"Question is, do trackers usually take a while to re-identify me as a seed source or should they just snap back into action as they were before the file move?" That's not how it works. The client simply reports to the tracker that you have the files and people will connect to you. So every...
