blow2323 Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 Hi Everyone,I have downloaded a torrent, moved its files to a new folder and deleted the old files. I have renamed the utorrent filename.I am trying to just "seed" the files and share them, but everytime I try to add the torrent and just seed it, it starts downloading it again(I changed the name of the utorrent file thinking it wouldn't download it again)Can you please tell me how to share what I have downloaded without it trying to download the files again. I just want to share the files.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciaobaby Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 You can'tOnce you have changed ANYTHING in the payload data you CANNOT re-seed using the original meta data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blow2323 Posted June 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 Ok, is there any solution or workaround?Creating a "new" utorrent file with the same files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreasvb Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 That will make only you the seeder, as no one else got that exact torrent.Better is to just seed the original.If those are e.g. archived TV series or movies then you can use MPC and RARFileSource to play them directly without unpacking first.

ciaobaby Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 Or of course, simply make a copy that you can manipulate as you wish without affecting the original payload. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
