When adding such a magnet link, qBittorrent will automatically convert it to a base16 hash, and you end up with a mismatching handle (the original base32 encoded info-hash and the base16 one used by qBittorrent). In this situation it's necesary to previously re-encode the hash yourself. Basically you need to decode the base32 hash and then re-encode it to base16, this way you´ll have the same string as qBittorrent.
