Ktorrent Help! SImple Question


Hi,

Is it possible to adjust the "priority" of the individual files in a torrent. For example if a torrent contains 9 files, can I make it so that file 1 downloads first, or at a higher rate? I know that utorrent and azureus had this feature.

Thanks!

in ktorrent just right click the file with the mouse and you get a number of options=download first /last and so on.

There's azerus for linux.
Only thing I can think of is click on the file in the downloading window.
And then click on the File tab on the bottom frame.
then right click on the file, and say, download first.

Edit: Beat to it!

Well you can set the priority inside that 1 torrent, like I said. But your only options are 1 and 2. 1 being download this(these) files first, 2 being download this(these) files last.
I haven't messed with azerus much, but If it has that feature your looking for, you could use it.
