Generally when a torrent starts downloading, it fetches pieces randomly.
BUT, using this tiny trick the pieces can be downloaded sequentially. This helps preview of a video file from the beginning of download. One doesn't have to wait until the entire video file is downloaded.
Required Application :
BEncode Editor
1. Open 'BEncode Editor.exe'. Go to
File > Open
2. Browse to directory '
C:\Users\(user name)\AppData\Roaming\uTorrent' and open the '
settings.dat' file.
3. Click on Add.
4. Add a new key '
bt.sequential_download'. [As:
Top | Type:
Integer | Value:
1]. Press
OK & save the file from
'
File > Save'. Then Exit the Editor & restart µTorrent.
DONE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now the same file would be downloaded according to the sequential piece order.
UNDO this Process
1. Open the '
settings.dat' file using the editor similar way.
2. Select the key '
bt.sequential_download' & hit 'Remove'.
3. Then save the file the similar way from 'File > Save'. Exit the editor & restart µTorrent.
DONE.
