Message "We already have this subtitle file uploaded as"

Wed Jan 17, 2018 5:51 pm

I get this error no matter how I attempt to upload the .SRT file:

The original file was downloaded from opensubtitles.org but it was a really bad so I modified it. About a 99% reedit.

Original: Killing.Salazar.2016.720p.BRRip.x264.AAC-ETRG.en.srt

I removed the "Advertise you product or brand here contact www.OpenSubtitles.org today" signature in case it was causing a problem with the upload.

I tried uploading my edited file with various different file names, but this always produced the error "We already have this subtitle file uploaded as <filename>"

Killing.Salazar.2016.720p.BRRip.x264.AAC-ETRG.en.srt
Killing.Salazar.2016.720p.BRRip.x264.AAC-ETRG.en-updated.srt
Killing.Salazar.2016.720p.BRRip.x264.AAC-ETRG.en-updated2.srt
Cartels (2016).srt
Cartels (2016)-updated.srt
Cartels.srt
Killing Salazar.srt
Killing Salazar-updated.srt
Killing Salazar-updated2.srt

Here is my edited subtitle file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zw8vhD2l5ekqRLHGBidNh06y1b9hScyw/view?usp=sharing

Hi, I just looked at your work and have done some error correction work on it.
Basically, what I did was fixing incorrect italics, splitting very long lines, get rid of overlap timings.
I have NOT rewritten anything.
You can get the file I worked on here
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1XPk1r ... KTrRyvrGnI
Please download it, and PLEASE test it on the movie before you publish.
Please?

why bleep out swearwords, I wondered)
It's your transcript work, and I saw that it is rather wordy, but I suppose you went for verbatim.
I do NOT have the movie to test this on, so it's all yours to check it.
(movie info and Credits are on line one. Dammit... I forgot to move this to second 01, and make it only 100ms long)

I'll be....
I see there was a successful upload to OS.org about 4 hours ago.
No worry.
However, if you find that it could still be improved upon (and it does have character per second issues, way too long lines and overlaps...) I would suggest that you still look at what I did, correct it where it needs improvements, and upload it later as a version two by way of correction menu in your subtitle.
Kind regards, Jaak
