Suggestion

[EN_US]

Hello qBittorrent team,

I noticed that in the NOX version of qBittorrent for Linux, when a torrent encounters a tracker error (such as an offline tracker, torrent without a tracker, or a private tracker unregistering or deleting the torrent), there is no visual indication or informative message shown to the user. The torrent line simply does not change or alert in any way.

This differs from the Windows version of qBittorrent, where the torrent line turns red and the user receives a clear indication of the tracker issue.

I believe it would be very helpful to implement a similar feature in the Linux NOX version to allow quick identification of torrents with tracker problems, avoiding confusion and making it easier to address these errors.

This improvement would make the user experience more consistent across platforms and greatly assist users who rely on private trackers.

Thank you for your attention!

Olá equipe qBittorrent,

Notei que na versão NOX do qBittorrent para Linux, quando um torrent apresenta erro no tracker (seja por tracker offline, torrent sem tracker, tracker privado que descadastra ou deleta o torrent), não há nenhum tipo de indicação visual ou mensagem informativa para o usuário. A linha do torrent simplesmente não muda, não exibindo nenhum alerta.

Isso contrasta com a versão do qBittorrent para Windows, onde a linha do torrent fica vermelha e o usuário recebe uma indicação clara do problema com o tracker.

Acredito que seria muito útil implementar uma feature semelhante na versão Linux NOX, para facilitar a identificação rápida de torrents que estão com problemas no tracker, evitando confusão e facilitando a resolução desses erros.

Essa melhoria tornaria a experiência do usuário mais consistente entre plataformas e ajudaria bastante na gestão dos torrents, especialmente para usuários que dependem de trackers privados.

Obrigado pela atenção!

Good morning, do we have any idea when a new release/version of qbit will be released with this new feature?
