ciaobaby Posted April 11, 2013 Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 A hashsum, is a hashsum, is a hashsum. If the file data does NOT change the hash WILL be the samelatest version client not calculating exact hash values, bcoz i made same torrent again, why not torrent client replied me that torrent already present neverthless client made new torrent with new hashAssuming that I understood that correctly, it means the data used to create the first job was different to the second one.It only needs ONE bit in ONE byte to change for the hashsum to be different to the hashsum in the metainfo and it WILL fail the check at that point.

TorDigger Posted April 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 A hashsum, is a hashsum, is a hashsum. If the file data does NOT change the hash WILL be the same100% same data , same folder and same directory i used with both torrent, both having different hashsum..For your further information many peoples had same problem...Torrent got stuck at 99.8%, its all due to bad hashsum.In detail: i made torrent with one .exe file and 8 .txt files, funny thing is all txt files are fine, problem with .exe file, how come .exe file changed its own value, also .exe file is digitally signed application am unable to change its value even 1 bit or byte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SceneDL Posted April 11, 2013 Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 Agreed with TorDigger , Even I also faced that problem with one of my torrent. May be it is a bug in new update. Please resolve this problem in next stable update ASAP.Regards,SceneDL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciaobaby Posted April 11, 2013 Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 100% same data , same folder and same directory i used with both torrent, both having different hashsum..No they aren't, something has been changed.use Exact File to do a binary comparison and create MD5 hashsums for all the files. One of them will not match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TorDigger Posted April 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 OK, as per your opinion that, some file changed its value, Question is, who changed? and how changed? even i not touched torrent files after making torrent. Yes i know, no one beleive, that how come same file got different hashsum value with utorrent client. but it is..Problem is resolved: am using an other client, till utorrent next stable release.Thanks...TorDigger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The usual suspects are:iTunes and/or QuicktimeWindows Media PlayerAny other application that will "retag" files or reads/writes/removes DRM metadata ... ...
