Torrents stuck on downloading metadat

If there are no seeds then there is not much you can do in the short term. Just keep the torrent (s) loaded in your torrent client and hopefully a seed comes online one day in the future. Alternatively try looking for a different torrent that may currently have seeds.  · It keeps on 'downloading metadata' forever. I have done the following tests: Tried on 3 PC (Also 1 Mac) -Re-installing the software. -Other torrent files (bltadwin.rut without the magnet) I hope I can fix this, Thanks. The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered: Copy link.  · Quite frequently I get stuck on 'Downloading Metadata' for certain torrents, whilst at the same time others download just fine. If I go to ~/Library/Application Support/uTorrent and delete bltadwin.ru and bltadwin.ru files then those stuck at 'Downloading metadata' start downloading but then a few days later I will run into the same problem.

Re: Magnet link stuck with "torrent metadata needed" Post by x» Sun pm "Prevent peers in blocklist from connecting" checked, but uncheck them temporarily when having issues with magnet links. (, pm) Cov Wrote: Alright, I occasionally stil get this Downloading metadata and sometimes, after like 1 Minute, it starts downloading and other times it just stucks at this. I think it happens with older torrents more often that with newer ones. Twice or three times I tried Get Torrent File like suggested by SectorVector and it worked but not sure if it happened by chance. If I try to add torrents from a specific public torrent site, most of the times qBittorrent stuck at downloading metadata. What is the expected behavior. It should get to know where and what can it download if it could download the metadata. Steps to reproduce. Try to add this torrent: magnet link. Extra info(if any).

Type in %appdata%utorrent and press Enter. Delete bltadwin.ru and bltadwin.ru These are two files that you’ll find in this folder. Then open uTorrent again and you’ll see that it has started downloading. I guess this is a sort of a glitch in the latest version that happens when you download magnet links (from piratebay etc.). Hope they fix it soon. However, the torrent would just get stuck on downloading metadata, and if it's something that was in progress it will stall. The only way I have found to fix this is by changing the port number in the settings (clicking the random button), pause - resume, and restart qBittorrent. I would need to do this times before it would work. This torrent that I'm downloading is stuck at Downloading metadata. It's been stuck for so much time and it still is stuck in Downloading metadata. Download and upload speed are at 0 Kb/s. The page where I downloaded the torrent said it only had 1 seed and 0 leeches. I already know that seeds are used to provide complete copies of torrents, while leeches are partially seeded peers, i guess. Problem is: just that.
