BitTorrent generic questions

ID #1019

Can I resume with FTP/IRC?

No. BitTorrent downloads the parts of a file in random order. This means you could be missing any part of the file, perhaps at the beginning, middle or end. You can only resume the download with a BitTorrent client. The temporary file format of certain BitTorrent clients may differ from others, so it's usually best to use the same BitTorrent client to resume.
