Cannot get proper .torrent files from some rss feed

[Former user]

Most of the rss feeds I'm using send .torrent filenames in a different XML node, specifically on <item><disclosure url=" "></disclosure></item>

So i had to modify leech.xsl in this way

<xsl:value-of select="title"/><xsl:text> </xsl:text><xsl:value-of select="enclosure/@url"/><xsl:text></xsl:text> "<xsl:value-of select="pubDate"/>"

Is there a better workaround?

What's inside of your feed <item><link> element? Is it empty/missing or has something irrelevant to torrent's URL?

Pasting an example

<item>
<title>Touch S02E02 [1080]</title>
<guid isPermaLink="false">XE1_S02E02_1080</guid>
<link>
http://www.dailytvtorrents.org/episode/touch-s02e02/

The <link> item point to the download page of the site insted of the actual .torrent file. I found this format on many rss service, showRSS is one of them.

[Aleksey Tulinov]

Weird, showrss at least put copy of URL into <link> or am i looking to different showrss?

Anyway, i've added <enclosure> support in c07a8fbc7af2ad8c805df638ce1d51c337b734f8, it also need to have type="application/x-bittorent".
