I'm using TransmissionBT torrent client (http://www.transmissionbt.com/).
Is it possible to make simple modification in code to be able to download files in sequential mode (from beginning of the file). Then it will be possible to play video file without waiting to finish downloading whole file. I found solution for it - https://trac.transmissionbt.com/wiki/Can%20I%20sequence%20the%20files%20I%20download but it's from 7 years ago and in current version there is no function mentioned in link.

baptx about 2 yearsThanks, I previously did it using Deluge with the Pieces plugin but Deluge is currently broken on Ubuntu 20.04 due to a Python error (C++ also has the advantage that it is compiled instead of interpreted like Python).
