Torrent is already in download list.

[lite104me]

Please provide the following information

qBittorrent version 3.3.13 and Operating System is Win 10:

If on linux, libtorrent and Qt version: No

What is the problem: I have a folder with several files I downloaded from a tracker. I reduced the bit rate to reduce file size and then tried to upload the new folder to the same tracker by creating a new torrent for the folder. When I then download the torrent to seed it I get the message "Already in download list. Torrent is already in download list. Trackers weren't merged because it is a private torrent."

What is the expected behavior: I expect it to seed the newly created lower bit rate folder

Steps to reproduce: Deleted newly created torrent and repeated steps and got same behavior. Tried three times. Contacted the tracker support and they said no known issues on their end.

This issue has been closed and locked for being too old, and thus either most likely resolved in recent versions or no longer applicable.
If you experience the reported problem or similar in the latest version, please open a new issue report with the requested information in the issue template.

A new issue report with relevant updated data gathered from the latest version is preferable to necroing an old report with a comment like "still happens in version x.y.z", even if you think the bug is the same, or suspect of a regression.
Due to the changes made to the qBittorrent code and its dependencies over time, the exact cause of your problem could be totally different than the original one, despite the visible symptoms of the bug being similar.
Thus, providing relevant updated information is crucial to find and fix the root cause of a recurrent problem or regression.

Thank you for your contributions.
