Unable to load "Masters.torrent":invalid path in torrent!

invalid or corrupt torrent file

Is the .torrent file indeed corrupted?
No. Torrent is perfectly fine, it has happy seeders and leechers.
Do not report it, Empornium Staff will not delete such torrents!

Why is this happening?
Some torrent clients create .torrent files that others won't accept due to some technical detail. For years it wasn't a problem until recently when µTorrent developers decided to put stop to it and blocked their client from working with said torrents.
rtorrent / libtorrent is known for making "corrupted" torrent files.

What can I do?
Change your torrent client.

If you're using µTorrent 3.4.x you must downgrade to 3.2.x or earlier or switch to alternative client.
If you're using Transmission 2.83 you must downgrade to 2.82 or earlier or switch to alternative client.


Which client does Emp recommend?
We recommend users of all µTorrent 3.3.x and higher versions switch to another client or downgrade to 2.2.1.
The following clients are similar to µTorrent and are recommended to µTorrent users who want to switch:

http://xxx.freeimage.us/image.php?id=225A_535FE4D3&jpg qBittorrent
http://xxx.freeimage.us/image.php?id=17B2_535FE48D&jpg µTorrent 2.2.1 (mirror)

Do you allow only 3 clients?
No! We don't force you to use any particular torrent client.
You can use any client you like with an exception of a few clients listed here: Banned Clients list.
