Passed to rtorrent - but it wasn't?

I'm having issues with some torrents from ISOhunt.
I'm not certain this is an rutorrent/rtorrent issue as such, but was wondering if anyone else gets the same problem and if anyone has a solution?
I think it may have something to do with the announce list in the torrent, but not 100% certain about that.

One example is:
Royal.Pains.S02E16.Astraphobia.HDTV.XviD-FQM.avi (http://isohunt.com/torrent_details/272823969/Royal+Pains?tab=summary)

So rutorrent tells me it was passed to rtorrent but it doesn't appear in my list of loaded torrents.
Most other ISOh torrents work fine, just the odd one that doesn't??

For example, you already have a torrent with some hash. In your example - CB4337A4A613B0F19831067ADA404640314CFE57

Don't think it's that.

Here's what I do think it is.

1st torrent was downloaded from ISOhunt about 6 hours ago.

2nd torrent was downloaded using the same link about an hour later.

The above are edited to just the first part of the torrent where I think the issue lies.
See the announce list on the first torrent?
Looks to me like ISOhunt are serving bad files periodically.

Looks like we can assume this is definitely NOT an rutorrent issue.

well what novik was saying is that if you have 2 torrents with the same hash, rtorrent will only load one of them.

just open both torrents with for example MakeTorrent2 , and have a look if the hashes are the same

same problem here with a privat-tracker.

Most of the files of this tracker are working fine but sometimes they fail. The .torrent files are correctly uploaded to the webserver (they appear in the dir "share/users/$username/torrent/" ). Trying to add them via watchdir did not solve the problem - info hash is also not the same (different torrents).
Adding the file directly to rtorrent (without using the rutorrent front-end) works fine.

At the moment i'm useing the httprpc-plugin instead of the the apache xmlrpc. Could the problem be here?

I will do some tests at the weekend and update the interface to the latest svn-version to check if the problem is already solved.

there ARE torrents which rtorrent won't accept which work fine with a client like utorrent (which will accept poorly made torrents, or torrents with bad data)

If it's one of THESE there may be nothing yuou can do.
