Feature request: download first and last parts of files first
Registered by

It would be nice if qBittorrent could download the first and the last pieces of a file. Even if I'm downloading a movie in "correct order", I cannot preview it if there are important metadata at the and of the file.
PS. Deluge has this feature. It's quite useful.

Ok, this is implemented and in a smarter way than Deluge's:
- Detects the main file in a torrent (i.e. the biggest one)
- Sets maximum priority the first and last piece of this main file
- This way it works for torrents with more than one file (!= Deluge)
- Separate from the "download in sequential order" option.
