Unsure as to how to drag Magnet links from PirateBay to TorrenTV #11

I think I may be missing something here, but how do I drag and drop Magnet links into TorrenTV from PirateBay. I can't download a .torrent file either cuz PirateBay doesn't offer it anymore.

A clear little tutorial should be helpful.

Thanks for the steps @Miladiir :+1:

I would only change "Profit!" with "Enjoy!" ;)

@azadbal there is a problem with Magnet links that are only an image, try dragging the links that also have some text in them.

Magnets never worked for me, it seems that the little green "+" appears around the bezel of the app window for a split second whilst dragging the magnet. Can never quite get the dragging right for the green "+" to appear and drop the icon (dropping otherwise results in nothing). This is on a Mac OS X 10.9.4 with a binary downloaded 5 minutes ago.

Workaround: have the website on one side, and a regular folder on the other. Drag the magnet to the folder (it will create a file). Drag that newly created file onto the TorrenTV window and bam - win for the innocent streamer.
