RSS feed link bug

[Jurgis Sinkevičius]

qBittorrent fails to retrieve RSS feed with specific feed link.
When link is like this:
http://www.linkomanija.net/rss.php?feed=link&passkey=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
It works fine. However, when I input link for customised category feed, it can't retrieve that link.
The NOT working link example:
http://www.linkomanija.net/rss.php?feed=link&cat[]=38&passkey=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

There is no errors displayed or anything. Icon near the link just freezes to "loading" and never does anything beyond that.

Other RSS clients (f.e. Firefox) has no problems using customised feed link.

I'm using Ubuntu 10.10 x64. qBitTorrent v2.4.3
Don't know libtorrent version, but i'm updating daily, so must the the newest.
Date is... 2010.11.14

Could you please try an up-to-date version of qBittorrent and confirm
that the bug is still there?

Since you are using Ubuntu, it is pretty easy to update:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:hydr0g3n/ppa
sudo apt-get -V dist-upgrade

I don't know if this bug is still being looked at, but I have the same issue on 2.9.0rc3 on Ubuntu 11.04 32bit. The RSS feed will update when initially opening qBittorrent, but will not update after a few minutes. When I try to manually update, it won't update the feed either.

The feed url is http://showrss.karmorra.info/rss.php?user_id=22178&hd=null&proper=1 and updates when opening qBittorrent, but at no other time.

Thanks.

Use AppCleaner and do a complete uninstall, then reinstall the latest version - solved my problem

I have the same issue with 3.0.8 with the showrss.karmorra.info feeds:

Showrss has multiple possibilities for feeds to support any client. Unfortunately QBittorent lacks an episode filter so I still have to select the torrents/magnets manually but at least it would be nice if the feed itself would update.

It only updates when I add the feed initially, any time I startup QB afterwards, the feed does not update, even if I remove the feed and add it again.
