May I know that rather there is a chrome extension that can monitor status of downloads and allow for adding torrent/magent link without going into the webUI?

Firmware version: 4.3.4.0569 Build 20180501
Model name: QNAP TS-543Bmini
 
1) Go to rtorrent-Pro Advanced UI and open settings

2) Make sure you have choosen and set "Try to register magnet protocol handler at start"

And click OK button

3) Now type in Chrome address bar chrome://settings/handlers and go to that page

4) In handlers settings page make sure there is no magnet handler register

5) Open again rtorrent-Pro Advanced UI

6) And now click on a handler icon on right of address bar and select Allow to register magnet link

7) From now any magnet link you'll click it will be automatically added to rtorrent-Pro.
 
Hi Silas

I know this is an old post but I have issues with Chrome (OSX and Windows 10) not associating magnet links with rtorrent. When I go to the rtorrent settings page, the "Try to register magnet protocol handler at start" checkbox is greyed out:

I have cleared all handlers in Chrome:

Until very recently it was working - clicking on a magnet link would open a new tab with the magnet url and the word 'success' at the end, and the torrent would be added to rtorrent. However I had to clear out Chrome (clear cookies, saved site data etc) as it was running very poorly, and although it now runs fine the magnet handler behaviour has broken. Now clicking on a magnet link does nothing at all, it doesn't even open a new tab.

I also do not get the handler icon in the search bar, and I'm presuming this is a change in Chrome since you made this post?

I also tried uninstalling and reinstalling rtorrent, but the checkbox is still greyed out, and the browser has not asked if I wish to associate magnet links with the URL http://192.168.1.230:6009/ui/rtorrent/

Thanks for any help you can give me.
 
Hey Man!

Thanks for your feedback and forgive me for late reply.

There are some Mozilla updates to Browsers/Web API Navigator library: Navigator.registerProtocolHandler()

secure context This feature is available only in secure contexts (HTTPS), in some or all supporting browsers.

The Navigator method registerProtocolHandler() lets web sites register their ability to open or handle particular URL schemes (aka protocols).

For example, this API lets webmail sites open mailto: URLs, or VoIP sites open tel: URLs.


Try opening Rtorrent-Pro using Web secured connection: https://NAS_IP:6008/

Let me know if it works for you.
 
No problem, thanks for your reply Silas.

So long story short, this works! However there are a couple of things to note for anyone else reading this.

I changed my rTorrent Pro bookmark from http://192.168.1.230:6009 to https://192.168.1.230:6008 and received the following Chrome error page:

As you can see, Chrome doesn't provide any obvious way to proceed. However after a bit of Googling I found the answer in the following Medium post:


Link: https://medium.com/@dblazeski/chrome-bypass-net-err-cert-invalid-for-development-daefae43eb12


Specifically this passage:

A quick way to bypass this message — open Advanced and see if you have a “proceed to website” option.

If not, you can try typing “badidea” or “thisisunsafe” directly in chrome on the same page. Don’t do this unless the site is one you trust or develop. The text “badidea” and “thisisunsafe” says a lot!

So I typed both of those, and it was when I finished typing 'thisisunsafe' that I was taken to the rTorrent screen, and immediately asked if I wanted to associate magnet links with Chrome. Awesome!

However, this did not immediately change the behaviour of magnet links. Clicking on them did nothing, and ever right-clicking and selecting 'open link in a new tab' or 'open link in a new window' did nothing. In fact the new window was immediately closed.

I tried copying and pasting the magnet link into a new incognito window and this prompted me to log in to rTorrent Pro UI. Perhaps it was one of my (very few) Chrome plugins? I tried disabling a couple that I thought might be causing the issue (uBlock Origin and PIA), but nothing changed. I re-enabled them, tried clicking on magnet links a few more times and suddenly it worked. I don't know what I did as my plugins are still active, but the behaviour is fixed.

The magnet links are opened in the same tab, so you need to hit the back button if you want to open more from the same page, but it now behaves as it did previously, with the following message displayed in the browser window:

noty("magnet xt=urn:btih(5daf9jhgsf680dguagdjghsg1ebeb1c81c44aba235256&dn=torrent%20name%20here=http://tracker.trackerfix.com:80/announce&tr=udp://5.rtracker.me:2480&tr=udp://5.rtracker.me:2480 - "+theUILang.addTorrentSuccess,"success");

So there you, go - success indeed! I provided this extra detail so that anyone else finding this page can hopefully fix this small issue.

Thanks again Silas
