Torrents don't work in EasyOS

Post by szept »

How do you get torrents like this?

I had similar situation on Lubuntu website, but I cannot access it... Dunno why. It says due to some security reasons.

Anyway, some torrents websites just give you torrent file and then you can add it to torrent software, but websites like this give me this.

When you accept this on Ubuntu/Lubuntu it opens torrent app and adds this file to download, but my Vivaldi as well as Chromium on Easy does nothing :(

Running live-USB EasyOS-64_5.6.3

Hi, @szept :

I suppose it could be a problem of configuration... Torrents are not linked to your torrent software (Transmision or the one u use)

In my OS it is really easy. When going to a torrent and click on GET THIS TORRENT, appears the image 10 option, I choose opend xdg and Transmission starts.... image 11.

I dunow what happens in EasyOS but I imagine it is an association files problem.

Hope you can solve it.

HAVE A NICE DAY

Yup, on Lubuntu, Transmission starts automatically once I accept this po-pup window, but not sure if Easy's default torrent client is associated by default to work in similar way.

Hi:

I don't know in EASYos, BUT in my sistem associate files is really easy:

Download the torrent (don't open it) and then go to your download folder, right click on this file and choose the option: OPEN WITH.... there you can choose open with your default program, looking for your Torrent Downloade software.... usually transmission.- or go choose the command (COMMMAND ONE) and look for the software you need and include the comand...
