Trying to grab a ep off Bitmetv and I get this in the log with uTorrent:
The torrent URL being returned from bitme is being redirected to another URL, which is causing issues.
I have added a logging statement to show where its being redirected to, which should be available later today.
Here we go:
It’s being redirected to a login page, not sure if something has changed to force you to login. Double check that your credentials are correct to start, beyond that I don’t have any suggestions or a way to verify if anything has changed.
OK, fixed the login page (I hadn’t logged into Bitme from that machine for a while…
Now it comes up with this though:
Looks like the same error, what comes before it?
Basically me adding the series in (Im testing this by adding a series I can see in the Bitme RSS Feed)
Could you post it with trace logging on again? Thats how we were able to diagnose the first one.
Hmm, it still says its redirecting to login page, but if I manually paste the get URL into a browser on the same machine that Sonarr is running on, it will prompt to download the torrent ffile fine
Yeah, but Sonarr doesn’t have the cookies that the browser stores to log you in. Seems they’re doing something that prevents Sonarr from grabbing it. I’m not sure what their stance is on automated software like Sonarr, but maybe its something they can address. I’m not sure what else we can do on our end.
If you can PM me the RSS output from their feed I might be able to see if there is something we can do. You can get the URL from Sonarr’s debug logs and replace your UID and passkey in the URL (since they were stripped when it was logged).
Thanks @Snupple doesn’t look like there is anything different, but I noticed the URLs don’t seem to have any UID on them, so I wonder if they now redirect through the login page to track who grabbed it.
I’m not sure what we can do here at the moment.
I had a bit of a poke around myself and found the following “span base” URL that does have the UID?
Looks like its just a link back to the RSS feed itself, not to the torrent itself.
I was trying to get BitMe to work as well and I can’t get past the login.
I know from what I was testing before with some other things, they use cookies to login. For setting up RSS feed in ruTorrent, you had to include the uid, passkey and the pass. You could get that from using the developer tools in Chrome or something and it shows up.
Example of it was here:
Thats pretty vague, but it sounds like BitMe is better suited as a generic provider since it doesn’t really work (just the RSS feed does).
Sorry. I probably explained that pretty bad then.
Basically, if you can change the BitMeTV URL to take, uid, passkey and it needs to be able to send a cookie with ‘pass’ defined in it.
I’ll see if I can dig up a bit more technical type explanation as that is a bit beyond my skills to explain it well.
Anyone have BitMeTV working as an indexer? I have fooled with it and cannot get it to download episodes.
