Torrent-control 0.2.30 doesn't fetch torrents anymore when paired with an open in new tab extension #138

I use an open in new tab extension and since the latest update 0.2.30 torrent-control doesn't download torrents hosted on a different website my open in a new tab extension, loads/opens in a new tab. Reverting to version 0.2.29 fixed the issue.

I didn't get any pop-up message here when it happened. I was on TGx. The extension failed silently and started working normally again after I disabled the "Open links in new Tab" extension.

@EsEnZeT Your problem was resolved in the latest version.

Torrent control uses tabs context to fetch torrents, so it could be that new tab extension blocks navigation requests and/or modifies tab identifiers. I need to trace it to see what really happens. It's either easy fix or unfixable, consindering what little amount addons have in processing priority.

This problem occured always when torrent was linked to open to a new tab. It's now fixed in the latest version. Althought the way a new tab is detected is far from optimal.

Sorry it doesn't work for me after these updates, I downgraded to 0.2.29 and now it's fine.
