It works for me. What version of the daemon? I think maybe it's there.

I think that the daemon v2.52 has a bug 
https://trac.transmissionbt.com/ticket/4571

You should get a newer version of the daemon. If you can compile yourself get 
it from the official site or from my github for a daemon version I maintain 
with all the current bugfixes and lots of nice unofficial enhancements  
https://github.com/cfpp2p/transmission  ( enhancements 
http://sourceforge.net/p/transmissiondaemon/discussion/general/ )  If you want 
my enhanced GUI --> 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/transmissiondaemon/files/Windows-GUI-2014-07-31/
 ( source - 
https://github.com/cfpp2p/transmission/tree/Windows_Daemon_%26_Clients/WINdows_G
UI/source )

In general the 2.52 daemon would have quite a few bugs that are now fixed, so 
you really should update it. The 5.0.1 GUI is most likely not the problem with 
the trackers.

With transmission-edit you need to quote the filename, it's being read as two 
different files the way you typed it. And also there shouldn't be .added files 
in your /torrents/ directory, it seems maybe you set the watch directory to 
this and that will cause some unusual effects. Go to 
https://forum.transmissionbt.com for that kind of help.
