nmr50 Posted February 9 Report Share Posted February 9 (edited) Hello everyone! I want to ask gurus of utorrent - is it possible to set limit of parallel downloading files from _one_ (ONE) torrent ? It is like I have torrent with 500 files in it, yet I want to download files but with 3 files at one time, no more in concurrent mode. Is it possble ? Thanks in advance ! -t Edited February 10 by nmr50 small fixes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I understand these two options giving me 1 by 1 sequental mode files download... I suppose this feature "How many files should be downloaded in parallel" should be placed as option in the next version of utorrent Thanks in advance! -t Edited February 14 by nmr50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, if you have many seeds and torrent contains 500 files of 1MB and your download speed 10MB/s - sequential downloading will not work.

I've set those two parameters but what I found - utorrent ANYWAY pre-allocates all selected files and THEN starts download them 1 by 1... this is NOT what I really want... I think new that option will be PRETTY NICE: what count of files should be added to immediately download - from 0 (unlimited) to specified number, so utorrent will preallocate only files which are pointed to download by that number... Thanks for helping, I will wait for that new option -t Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can unchecked "Pre-allocate all files" option in Preferences -> General. 30 minutes ago, nmr50 said: I think new that option will be PRETTY NICE: what count of files should be added to immediately download - from 0 (unlimited) to specified number, so utorrent will preallocate only files which are pointed to download by that number...
