Sorry to hear that. I've been using 4.1.0~beta2 for 3 months and it has worked well for me. I have one 8 Gib torrent which transmission insisted on downloading most parts again arguing invalid data, but this was not automatic and I had to ask to "Verify local data" before any data shredding happeneded. Other torrents, from 3 Gib to 163 Gib, have been downloaded with earlier versions and have been well since. Could you provide an anonymized log have what happeneded? I cannot find any issue referring to something similar upstream, but probably beta versions do not get much testing. Will raise severity if I get another report on this, but without logs, it is difficult to have a hint about what might have happened for you. Thanks, Alex
