Guest joshier Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Is there any bittorrent downloader that prioritizes segments from a file(s) from start to finish? Reason why I ask is that if sometihng like this exists, you could use it to play a bittorrent movie *whilst* you download it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaini Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 well that's not strictly true, for a lot of formats you will also require some information present at the end of the file or the keyframes will start going all over the shop. i don't know the answer to your question though.

Bob Dylan Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 That's the nature of torrents, it is a non-linear way of downloading files so that everybody helps the other with the missing parts. You can't do it your way or else, say when a file gets out, everybody is trying to download it, so the person doing the upping can't just give the first part to everybody, it wouldn't work.

kaini Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 some clients like bitcomet actually tried to fuck with that, and quickly got banned from every torrent site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
