way to swap the data of 2 dead torrents to reach 100% progress?

For a video that posted by the KTR scene group, was used by both RARBG and N1C to create torrents (V1 format).

now both of it are stuck at 90%+ due to age, is there a way to swap their data ~~to bring the progress to 100%~~?

thanks.

Is it the exact same file in both torrents?
- Not same in 2 torrents, Putting one into the other and check it will only give me 0% of the results.
  
  cuz before posting torrent, RARBG will make changes to the source files, such as filling in its site address in the video attributes, while the seed published by N1C is the source file of the publishing group, and was not modified.
  
  In that case I have no idea if it's possible. Sorry.
  
  thanks you all the same
  
  Maybe you could use version control like git to merge the files. But resolving any merge conflicts would probably be impossible.
  
  I'm a bit high and just spitballing. Hopefully someone will come along and tell me how stupid the idea is and why :D
  
  Lol, I think git only works in that level for text based files
  
  I easily handles pictures and soundfiles. I see no reason why I wouldn't work with video files. In the end, everything is a text file.
  
  It can recognize if a non text file is there or not, or if the size has changed but not much else. And the big difference is most text based formats are binary while media files are not
  
  Just for the fun of it I tried. You can add video files to git, no problem. Gives "large file" warning, but that's no problem unless you're trying to look at a diff with GUI client.
  
  Everything is a binary file if you go down deep enough.
  
  Yes you can add it but it will not let you edit lines of code. And no the data is stored in hex format, it can't be read binarily, have you ever tried to open a media file in a text editor?
  
  I can open it in a text editor just fine. And you can edit it. In fact, in my example file I used I see big sections of "0000" compared to other sections that look like "712c 10a3 14bb 2980 0005 1c46 25b8 0040".
  
  I'd post some screenshots but lemmy gives me errors. But that might actually be viable, the more that I think of it.
