Torrent-file, also supports BitTorrent v2 — coming with piece alignment by default.
It seems that piece-alignment is not yet supported when creating a v1
Create a hybrid then, it will add BEP-47 to v1 separately (since hybrids can't exist without it) and you will have additional v2 support, with built-in piece alignment, double win.
Some clients currently do not support downloading hybrid and v2, and v2 has a flaw that can be modified remotely?
so, v2 and hybrid which containing v2 seem to be not a good choice.
I didn't see your comment earlier, pretty much all of them support hybrids, old transmissions till 3.01 are exclusions, and that's because their devs didn't implement their bencoding library according to BEP, but this flaw was fixed in the new versions awhile.
So you're loose to choose hybrids (or hell, even v2 only), protocol was around for a couple of years, don't believe what others' say, those are the pretty much lazy people with low technical background, who are afraid to upgrade their clients for years. Didn't catch that "remote" thing, but there could be no way of modifying data bound to sha256 hash.
BitTorrent v2 — is the future. I suppose there's no need telling its improvements.
Ahh.. This feature should be made known to more people, such as creators, uploaders.
