Sonarr fails to download torrent files from RSS feed

I’ve been trying to get Sonarr working with funfile (a private torrent tracker) for the past week. I even got the devs there to update their RSS format so that Sonarr could parse it correctly.

Please see my log trace:
http://hastebin.com/azofahofox.tex

The error seems to be: “MonoTorrent.TorrentException: Invalid torrent file specified —> MonoTorrent.BEncoding.BEncodingException: —> System.InvalidCastException: Specified cast is not valid.”

I’m using a torrent black hole (my client is not supported). If I open the RSS feed in an RSS reader and click the link directly, the torrent file downloads without issue and if I save it to my black hole directory, everything works as it should. It seems that Sonarr is just failing to download the file for some reason.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Edit:
I changed the log level to debug to get more info and updated the hastebin. I can confirm that the torrent file IS downloaded since the log states the download finished and I checked when manually downloading that torrent file that the size matches (96904 bytes). The .torrent file downloads but then the error above is thrown.

I have the same issue with funfile. For the record, I am using uTorrent with the Drone Factory Folder. The moving and renaming of files works. It’s the downloading of the torrent file that fails

This is now fixed in the develop branch. Problem was/is with the torrent files that are on FunFile. They don’t exactly follow the correct specifications, so Sonarr had a problem handling them.

Just wondering what the release schedule is. It seems like switching to dev is a permanent decision as it isn’t recommended to change back to master.

There isn’t a set schedule, we release to master when we feel everything in develop is ready for the masses. Once master is updated you can switch back (in some cases we will redirect people to master automatically).
