Ketrel Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Is there any way to make utorrent attempt to download files sequentially as in from start to finish rather than a piece here and there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honeyfrog Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 You can force it to download files in any particular order, but AFAIK you can't govern the order in which pieces *within* files are received (other than the first and last piece, that is, in Advanced settings).

Ultima Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 You still can't really force it to download files in sequential order unless you're constantly monitoring when files get completed. And it won't happen either. If you want sequential downloading, then BitTorrent isn't for you. Much of BitTorrent's advantages come from the fact that it favors non-sequential piece/file downloading.

Ketrel Posted June 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 First and last are fine, I was interested in getting the file header so, that'll do nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
