I created 2 hybrid torrents, A and B, both contains same files and has same trackers, uploaded A to public, It's been downloaded hundreds of times and there's no shortage of clients in the peer list that support v2.

use Tixati 3.19 and BiglyBT (supports v2) download B, it stuck at 0%, didn't get anything from A. Some people say that need trackers support this feature, is that true? Did you ever test succeed?

lol nope, I named it as a string of random letters.

After downloading for a while, although B didn't get anything from A, but some IPs from GE, FR, US, VN, and so on appeared in the peer list, and their client names are rather strange and usually not seen, e.g. the VN ip's client name is "VN 3.xxx", do you know what they are?
