BitComet saves file without extension, when opening Magnet link


copolla

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I want to report a bug, which adds manual work when downloading files with Magnet links.

I use BC 1.36 (64bit, Win7), but it was present in BC 1.35 (64bit) too.

When I copy Magnet link and paste it in "Open URL" field, or if BitComet catches it from clipboard, "Create new Bittorent task" window opens.

In the Filename field you can see, that no file extension is present. I noticed, that this happens in the case when file in torrent is not in a folder.

Then file is downloaded and saved without extension. Also, BC can't detect file type and preview it, of course.

If task is canceled without downloading it and repeated again with the same Magnet link, the file extension becomes available.

Example screen attached.

Thank you for this report. We've known about this problem for some time and it seems to effect only torrents with one file.

I believe a solution is planned for the next release of bitcomet but I'll send a reminder to see if we can get this upgraded to a higher priority.
