Package: transmission
Version: 0.96.dfsg-1
Severity: wishlist
I'd like to have an option to, given a choice between multiple equally
useful chunks, bias towards requesting chunks from earlier in the
file. Ideally, if transmission always has its choice of chunks and
can keep saturating available bandwidth, it should download contiguous
chunks from the beginning of the file. This would allow programs that
can handle partial files to usefully process a partial download. For
instance, most video players can play a partially downloaded video
file, and nautilus can thumbnail such files.
Similarly, when downloading a multi-file torrent, transmission could
bias towards completing partial files.
