let’s say I’m torrenting a movie, and the torrent is downloading faster than the movie would play, is there any software that can handle a constantly changing file? thanks
edit: basically as long as you tell your torrent client to download sequentially, VLC (and probably most other video players) can just play the file like normal. though as one user pointed out, this may affect dl speeds.
Deluge is another client that supports sequential downloads. It’s my personal favourite because it’s also built on a client-server model, so I can have thr client on all my devices connecting to a single server.
