    Hello to all the community.

    Question:

    If I Have A Couple Of Torrents That Have The Same Contents , and I Want to Update it's Trackers, is it necessary for these Torrents(contents) to Have The Exact Same Names too?

    Thanks in Advance.

    Edit.1

    For example: if these are the torrents contents

    • Torrent.1:- world.war.z.2013.720.mkv ----- Size: 946.42 MB

    • Torrent.2:- World War Z (2013) Bluray x264 720p.Mkv ----- Size: 946.42 MB

    Is it possible to update the trackers in this ex. ?

    and if i did, is it going to make a difference in the downloading speed or not ?

    I believe it is not relevant all files have the same trackers, is something particular to each tracker.

    A BitTorrent tracker is a server that assists in the communication between peers using the BitTorrent protocol. In peer-to-peer file sharing a software client on an end-user PC requests a file, and portions of the requested file residing on peer machines are sent to the client, and then reassembled into a full copy of the requested file. The "tracker" server keeps track of where file copies reside on peer machines, which ones are available at time of the client request, and helps coordinate efficient transmission and reassembly of the copied file.

    I'm trying to hop on a torrent that I know has activity, because different websites show that there are seeders and leechers. However, in utorrent I can't download anything or connect to anyone. Under the Trackers tab it has the following message:

    Failure: This torrent is not registered with this tracker

    How can I connect to other people on this torrent so I can start downloading?

    The tracker saved in the torrent file has stopped accepting connections for that torrent.

    You need to (somehow) find another tracker, and set that in utorrent.

    If utorrent does not allow you to do this (I think it does), you can edit the torrent file with a torrent editor or any editor that reads BEncoding. You can find such an application and further information in this utorrent forum post.
