Description

I get this when pulling torrents via the RSS plugin to Deluge:

I checked around a bit and found a few posts regarding this error and python. Most concluded that it was a GZip error. eg. the torrent file comes back encoded with GZip from the server and the handler (different in different cases) feeds it to Deluge still encoded which doesn't work since Deluge cant read it.

Can anyone confirm? Or have another idea? RSS pulled from torrentz.com in my case ...

If I understand correctly this might be solved if this deluge  ticket gets implemented.

Does it work if you use the download plugin and manually add the resulting torrents to deluge? If so, this is definitely a deluge bug, not a flexget one. Or perhaps it's your tracker returning an invalid torrent.

Maybe the patch in #292 will fix this?

Wait. RSS pulled from torrentz.com ? I hadn't really looked into this before, but the rss from torrentz.com doesn't point to torrent files, rather to web pages at torrentz.com I suspect that is the problem.
