Is this client banned from the site? New STREAM client called WebTorrent.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/webtorrent-desktop.mirror/
I tested it with some torrent other than on this site and it works pretty good. But I removed it I don't have time for it. I didn't dig into settings so don't know about that. Seems like that type of torrent client might not be good for maintaining ratio - only leeching. But I see it can be quite handy with non-private torrent sites - one drops .torrent onto the client and streaming begins.

I just tried it as well. It downloads the data from beginning to end, enabling streaming. It would seem to wrk best with a well seeded torrent. It would also be great for those movies you just cannot wait to see.
I have no idea how it handles uploads and seeding through the client. -
AFAIK, this torrent is not currently on the list of banned clients. I know we used to have a list of banned clients somewhere, but it seems to have disappeared over time.
The one thing that I would wonder about this torrent client is does it download the contents and enable you to stream as you're downloading, or is it a stream only kind of deal? If it's a stream only kind of deal, I would caution against the use of this client, simply due to the fact that it would prove to be detrimental to your ratio. If it just downloads it in order so that you can stream it while it downloads, then keep it seeding like a normal torrent client, then I think this may be something that I might want to look into.

I tried it again with the latest SC video. With only one seeder in the swarm, it waited until the file was fully downloaded before streaming/playing. And yes, Popper, it does continue to seed. I would appreciate you looking into it.
