[Feature Request] Auto Prioritize Sample Files

Recommended Posts

Sometimes when you open up a torrent with uTorrent, the torrent usually consists of more than one files and one of them is a sample so you could preview before you decide to download the entire movie. I am wondering if uTorrent could be smart enough to automatically try to first download the files with the string "sample" in their file names. This way the sample will be finished first before the other files so that you could take a preview. I know we could do this manually by skipping all the files except the sample. But it would nice if uTorrent could take care of all this for us.

If you can do it by hand, I don't think it's needed to have uTorrent automatically do that for you. If you wish to view the sample/preview only, then you have the ability to go into the torrent's file listing and pick it out there. I highly doubt this'll ever be implemented.

You don't have to stop it, you can bump it's priority up instead. Personally, I research what I'm getting and I prefer _not_ to even have the sample files. I especially hate it when people archive and split video files. Why? Then I have to have _two_ copies of that on my HD if I want to still seed.
