Torrent cache doesn't work #81

Open aurimus opened 8 years ago

aurimus commented 8 years ago

After resolving a magnet link (Paste), as soon as you exit the view of torrent file contents - it deletes the whole folder at /tmp/Popcorn-Time/TorrentCache. Next time you click on same magnet link - it again tries to resolve it.

I suggest to move newly created torrent file to TorrentsCollection, instead of creating a text file with magnet link there.

Confirmed on: Ubuntu 14.04

It might have been intended, depending on how this cache is used, because really there is no good use for such cache: it's not displayed anywhere, if I don't want to store torrent - I'm ok to resolve the magnet link second time. The only case I could think of is if magnet link is dropped for an existing torrent / download - then it might skip straight to playing.
