Tracker always displaying 0 seeders! See below for workaround

Hello,
 
  I am testing out qbittorent and have more than 3000 torrents.  I am using bittorrent client since forever. So I do know usually what I am talking about but I can say this is truly a bug.

In other terms, when putting a torrent for the first time, the process just goes fine, but unfortunately, the tracker always say 0 SEEDERS.  The only workaround I have found is to STOP the torrent and to STAR it again!  This is a pain when you have few tousands torrents.

Before you asked, I did try 2 different trackers.


Thanx. regards.

Could you tell us which trackers/sites did you use?

Hello Shiki,

  Without naming the tracker name, I tried a well known tracker software called TSSE and TorrentTrader.  If you want, I can provide you access to one of them since I am part of the staff.

Thanx. regards.

Is it possible that the GUI may be slow to update all these torrents? 3000 are quite a few!

Hello sledgehammer_999,

  I knew you would probably ask this question and I have tried it with only about 50 torrents and it still does the same thing.  Yes, I do understand this can be the TRACKER software, but with 2 different tracker with 2 different software, chances are minimal.  It's up to you, but we can do some TEAMVIEWER to show you all the bugs that I have noticed.  Since I do like this software, I do not mind taking time to enhance it.


Thanx. regards.

How will this work? Will I connect to you PC and use your qbittorrent instance or the other way around?

NOTE: You should report all your issues in bugs.qbittorrent.org. We need to keep them tracked somehow. Here they will be forgotten for sure, since I am not able to fix them all nor do I have the time. I am just a contributor, I fix what I can and what I like.
