UMG Posted December 1, 2007 Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 Is it possible to set U torrent to a mode where one file is downloaded at a time, instead of a bunch of files being dowonloaded simultaneously? Like if you have one torrent hat contains multiple fuiles, for the file to download one by one.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UMG Posted December 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 Uh, well, I think it would be good if we had the option to you know choose.. If the torrent kicks out, I think most peopel would rather thave 50% comlpete files than 100% incomplete files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stathis Posted December 1, 2007 Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 well you can always give High Priority to the files you want to finish first and Low to the others. It will still download all of them simultaneously, but your highest priority files will finish first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreadWingKnight Posted December 1, 2007 Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 Then you are stuck.BitTorrent is not a sequential downloading protocol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted December 2, 2007 Report Share Posted December 2, 2007 If it was, a single seed trying to upload to 10 peers would be a disaster.The first few peers would be demanding the same parts (roughly) from the seed, and even after the seed satisfies those parts, the peers would have NOTHING to share with each other.
