Which bittorrent clients can download preview chunk first?

Is there a way to tell uTorrent or other BT clients to download the first 1 or 2 or 3% first?

It cannot be quite disturbing when downloading a clip using BT clients and it is 80% done but the first 1% of the clip is not done yet, so you still have to keep waiting for unknown time.

Update: title is changed.


Solution 1:

uTorrent does this, and I definitely recommend this torrent client as it is fast and extremely lightweight. Starts up within 1 second for me.

To set this option in uTorrent, click Options -> Preferences.

Select Advanced Preferences.

Find the option named "bt.prio_first_last_piece" and set to true.

This will download the start of the file which will let you preview most video files first.
