Bug Description

OS : Ubuntu 10.04.2 x86
qBittorrent: 2.7.1-0ubuntu1~lucid
Libtorrent : 0.15.5+svn.r5394-0ubuntu1~lucid

Hi, I upload a torrent-file on one tracker. I have downloaded a torrent-file and has added it in the qBittorrent. I upload the same torrent-file on another tracker. I have downloaded from the second tracker a torrent-file and have tried to add it in the qBittorrent. But in the list of torrents this torrent isn't added.

It is possible to make as in utorret that at adding in the program torrent with the same heshsum announce from the second tracker it was added in already exist?

Implementing this would really be very useful. After changing from uTorrent to qbittorrent I'm missing such a feature alot.

What qBittorrent does is import the new tracker into the existing torrent that has the same hash. This way, the torrent gets announced to both trackers. I don't see any point splitting them in the download list.

Maybe this is implemented, but in fact it does not work at all. If u add the same torrent with a different tracker againt, the new tracker gets lost.

Fixing this up would be very nice.

Indeed you were right. The feature was implemented but broken. I have found the issue and fixed it for v2.9.5. Thanks.
