Anti-dupe system

#1 Postby Denis » Feb 25, 2010 3:03 am

how does it work?

compares filename or filename+filesize?
and when a user upload a same file, what then?

show the same Downloadlink or generated a new link to the file (with new Downloadcounter)?

I have studied the self - but my servers are upgraded.

has this system cons?

if i am not wrong on this

a file got a md5 hash
if you upload it reads the md5 hash (or sha hash or whatever)

if that hash match a file in database is it a exact dublicate
then it just delete it after upload complete and it give you the old link or a new link but the same file ^^

or thats what it was suposed to do ^^

but that means to , if you got 2 files but 1 file is in a new rar archive then the check is wrong to :P

Correct. But that's not md5 hash - our own hash.
