@ianfontinell said: @thedude99 unfortunately the issue you're describing is not solvable, this is by design of the bittorrent protocol. In the initial implementation of bittorrent, torrent pieces have a fixed size, multiple files can overlap in a same piece, and the most common outcome of this is that the beginning of a file will share the same piece as the end of the previous file. You cannot partially seed a piece, you need the whole thing. If the filr you're trying to seed overlaps with another file, you need to have that part of the other file. Even if you never downloaded that file in the first place, the torrent client will still have downloaded it and stored it in a special folder or file. After you remove that torrent from your client and getting rid of that special file, any attempt to seed this file will lead to the client trying to download the remaining bytes of that torrent piece. There's nothing that I or you could do about this, sadly. The only solution to this is to stop using v1 protocol to create torrent files, but after the torrent file is created, we can't do a thing. What that means for your particular case is that, if you're the only person reseeding, no one will ever be able to finish it, and the only solution is for you to create a brand new torrent with the files you have. That's unfortunate. This v1 protocol has been in use for like 25 years? I wish they would move on to v2 already. Thanks for the explanation.

@Kevin4fm said: Still doesn't answer the question of whether .mkv are considered the same format as .mp4. I've had torrents deleted because they are. Yet other file types - "formats" - seem unaffected. Which seems inconsistent.

They have exactly same in size w/ 1.24 MB difference, and different file format ... When it comes through reporting dupes : Remember: we do allow the same movie in different formats. A duplicate must be the same size and file type. [image: 1783656775686-screenshot_2.jpg]

@MrMazda Ok thanks for all the advice guys! I'm still new to all this so I'll take a proper read at the replies to this thread!

Or are you talking now about conversations via Comments, rather than reporting inappropriate ones? If so, and there are several commenters, so who you're replying to might be misinterpreted, simply "quote" rather than reply. You can edit the quote down, so it's just a few words, if necessary, but that avoids any doubt.

@Joker Thanks for replying and fixing it so quickly. I tried again and it is back to the normal behavior.

No worries on this one: using a VPN or a dedicated IP is completely fine and does not get an account terminated. Cheating detection is about behaviour, not about what IP you connect from, and plenty of members seed from dedicated servers or seedboxes. Just keep your account to yourself as usual and you have nothing to worry about.

Seems to be fixed now.
