Hi

I've read similar posts on this forum already - just adding my observations to the discussion.

Many many times I get errors like the following:
Error verifying torrent contents: the tracker returned no information
An error occurred while retrieving torrent info
File size incorrect (xxx.0)

these are all taken from the log on the most recent scheduled check.
If I copy any of these found torrent files and paste it into my torrent client they always work just fine (the ones I did this for have already finished downloading in the time its taken me to write this post...)

I know other people have asked for this, but I'd like to repeat: is there not a way to just lift these restrictions (maybe an option in the preferences for "strictness") and just download anyway? If the torrent client encounters problems it will report them later and I can manually remove and reset TED to try again with the same episode.

TED is, in theory, a great tool - but its almost completely unusable because I end up manually adding the programmes one at a time, which is exactly the thing this program is supposed to automate.

Thanks to the developers for (nearly) building a great time-saver.

ps I should add to the above post, yes I'm running the latest version of Java, yes I'm running the latest version of TED, yes I've closed TED and restarted, yes I've rebooted etc etc

I'm running Windows 7 if it makes a difference...

I've posted a similar bug. It would be great if the developers responded, even if they say "not sure whats causing this, we're looking into it" etc.

I dont expect miracles overnight and appreciate you probably have jobs and this is a hobby.
