[PROBLEM] Transmission not downloading magnetized torrents but works with .torrents

[fdolande]

Hi there,

I am running xbian on raspberry pi model b, with a usb hdd and wired network. It was working just fine until 2 weeks ago. I download all my series through flexget. If I add a torrent directly through the web interface, using a torrent file, it works without problems. If I add a torrent via a magnet link, it adds it but stays in "Downloading from 0 of 0 peers - 0 KB/s 0 KB/s Magnetized transfer - retrieving metadata (0.00%)". So far, I have uninstalled transmission and installed it again. Several reboots just for the sake of it. Updated everything from xbian config, and everything is working.

Weird thing, when I start or stop the daemon, it says "Stopping bittorrent client transmission-daemon...
Stopping bittorrent client transmission-daemon succeeded" without the [OK] in brackets.

Within transmission, I have enabled DHT, disabled it; toggled peer encryption, changed seeding ratio, etc... so far nothing works for magnet links.

As detailed, it was working and then it wasnt, suddenly. Ports are forwarded by the router, and in any other system, magnet links work without issues.

I am a very new to linux, for all that matters, but so far, I am more than willing to try anything you might suggest.
