huh?...don't really understand your question...the bt file is merely a tracker. when you startup the tracker is tells the bt programme where to dl the file or somewhere along that line...

and you can't play the file while it's dling cause you're dling bits and pieces of the files randomly. so there is no way on earth you can use the file until the dl is complete.

ninja, your wrong... sometimes, i'm not sure how, it allows me to watch the file when it isn't complete... just today i tried to watch an episodes from full metal panic season 2, and was kinda confused why the pixels would blur once in awhile, or why it would lag... i thought it was finished, but when i re-open bittorrent, it was only 85% done.. lol, once i watched a cardcaptor sakura episode that was only 55% done think tere was something wrong with the video, not that the download was only 55% done.

Yeah but the main point is that bittorent brings in the file in a random order so playing the file before its done in thoery shouldn't work ( some encodes may still work even with unfinished sections )
