Magnetar Help
Quick help for setting up Magnetar, choosing a target, sending magnets, using batch mode, and fixing common issues.
Quick start
- Choose a target provider.
- Add credentials if that target needs them.
- Open a torrent or search page.
- Send with the toolbar or detected page buttons.
- Check downloads, saved items, or history.
Choosing a target
Local client
Hands a magnet to your browser or system torrent app.
TorBox
Send to your TorBox account with an API key.
Real-Debrid
Send magnets to Real-Debrid with an API key.
AllDebrid
Send magnets to AllDebrid with an API key.
Premiumize
Send magnets to Premiumize with an API key.
RDT Client
Send to your own RDT Client server.
qBittorrent
Send to a configured qBittorrent Web UI target.
Standard vs Advanced mode
Standard
Best for simple one-click sending with fewer controls visible.
Advanced
Adds target switching, Manual send, Batch, Pin, Detection Details, and more context.
Manual send and hash to magnet
Paste a magnet link or info hash when Magnetar cannot detect one automatically, then send it, copy it, or review the generated magnet.
Batch mode
Review multiple detected items, select what you want, and send them together. Sent items stay marked to help avoid repeats.
Saved for later and history
Save items for later. History shows recent sends, source URLs when available, resend actions, and duplicate detection.
Site controls
Use Ignore site when Magnetar is not useful there. Site blocking stops detection on domains you choose.
Troubleshooting
Nothing detected on the page
Try another supported result page, open Advanced mode for Detection Details, or use Manual send if the page only exposes text.
Provider send failed
Check the provider is selected, credentials are valid, and the provider service is reachable.
qBittorrent, RDT Client, or local client is not responding
Check the configured URL or handler, confirm the client is running, and verify any login details.
Batch mode looks empty
Batch only shows when Magnetar finds multiple supported items on the current page.
Credentials or API key problems
Re-enter the credential in Settings and use Save & Test before sending again.
Extension buttons are not showing
Check that the site is not ignored or blocked, then refresh the page after changing settings.
Cached status is missing
Cached status is only shown when the chosen provider can report it for the detected item.
Privacy
- Settings are stored locally in your browser.
- The extension has no analytics, telemetry, or tracking.
- No browsing history is sent to arrcee.com.
- Provider requests only go to the provider or service you configure when you send something.
Contact and support
If something still looks wrong, open a GitHub issue with the browser, target, page type, and what happened.
