bitdave Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Use VLC player for previewing your audio/video downloads instead of the Bitcomet preview feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bitdave Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 After you install VLC player then right click on your torrent task choose Browse directory to locate the partially downloaded file. then there are many ways to open these with VLC you could drag and drop the file onto a shortcut to VLC or you could rightclick and select open with and find VLC player (you might have to browse for it) or you could open up VLC player beforehand and drag and drop the file into the VLC player window.

bitdave Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Did you not listen to what i said, use VLC player. It is the best program for previewing audio/video files. Just follow the directions i posted above to preview the partial downloads with VLC player.
