Hi guys,
I recently downloaded a movie (We're the Millers) to my seedbox and now I want to continue seeding it on my HDD (since I'm running out of space on my box). So I grabbed the file via sftp and placed it in my qBittorent download folder. However when I try to add the torrent to start hash checking it simply creates a new folder called "" inside the movie folder (i.e. We're.The.Millers//We're.The.Millers.mkv) and starts downloading the movie from scratch. Try as I might, I simply can't change the download location to just "Downloads/We're.The.Millers/We're.The.Millers.mkv". Here is a screenshot of what I'm talking about:
If I choose any other download location it does not place the "_" folder in between.
The movie .mkv is in its own folder and it's in Downloads. What I would like is for qBitorrent to recognize the file already exists instead of redownloading it again. Here are a few more pics to show what I mean:
EDIT: forgot to mention that the same thing happens even if I use the import torrent wizard from the file menu. I point to the torrent file and the download folder, and it creates the "_" folder anyway. I've also tried enabling and disabling the "Keep incomplete torrents in:" option both in both cases the issue persisted. I feel it's because of the apostrophe in the name and this is causing issues in some way.

This is how I've set up my import settings
http://puu.sh/gOLkT/64ef73717c.png
It immediately starts downloading...
http://puu.sh/gOLmL/47aeeb9d9b.png
...and creates this directory...
http://puu.sh/gOLnW/e76935583f.png
...inside of which is the exact same movie file again which it is now downloading
Hope this clears up any confusion
Thanks again
