What This Tool Shows
A .torrent file is bencoded metadata describing the files in a swarm, how they are split into pieces, and which trackers to use. This tool decodes that structure locally and shows:
- Info hash — the swarm identifier (
urn:btihfor v1 SHA-1,urn:btmhfor v2 SHA-256) - Announce URL(s) — primary tracker and backup tiers from
announce-list - File tree — every path and size in the torrent
- Flags — private torrent, source tag, piece length, creation date
v1, v2, and Hybrid
Classic v1 torrents use SHA-1 piece hashes and a flat files list. v2 torrents (BEP-52) use SHA-256 and a nested file tree. Hybrid torrents include both so they can join v1 and v2 swarms; this tool shows both info hashes when present.
Privacy
Your torrent file never leaves your device. No tracker is contacted and no magnet is resolved — only the static metainfo in the file you drop is read.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is my torrent uploaded?
No. Parsing runs entirely in your browser with JavaScript.
How do I get the info hash for my client?
Drop the torrent here and click Copy v1 hash or Copy magnet link. The v1 SHA-1 hash is what most clients show as the torrent ID.
Can this compare paths to my download folder?
Not yet — this version reads metadata only. Use the FLAC Integrity Verifier for Unicode path audits on ripped albums.
Does it work with private tracker torrents?
Yes. Private flag, source tag, and announce URLs are displayed when encoded in the metainfo.
